Ant-Man and the Wasp
Darren Cross , aka Yellowjacket , will not come along inAnt - Man and the Wasp . Established as a one - clock time protégé of Hank Pym ’s in the 2015 original , Cross drop a majority of the film trying to hone his own shrinking wooing , which he could then sell to a sort of terrorist organizations . Yellowjacket was , at the fourth dimension ofAnt - Man’srelease , the latest in an ever - maturate line of mirror baddie ( antagonist who have the same powers as the titular hero ) . This led to some visually - inventive and comedic determined pieces as Ant - Man and Yellowjacket battled .
Given that Yellowjacket seemingly died at the end of the first film , it was never expected he ’d return for a follow - up . However , amusing leger moving-picture show have a habit of bringing dead characters back to life , so there was at least an outside chance Darren Cross could deliver to the fold forAnt - Man and the Wasp . But now , it ’s formally been confirm he ’s nowhere to be find in the screenplay .

Screen Rant had the chance to chat theAnt - Man and the Waspset , where we spoke with specialty costumes supervisory program Ivo Coveney . According to him , there ’s no Yellowjacket in the movie :
In the script that I ’ve view him , he ’s not in our picture show . I do n’t experience whether we see him again at any full point .
Fans may think that at the end ofAnt - Man , Scott Lang go sub - atomic and damage Yellowjacket ’s suit of clothes to the point that it collapsed into itself and crushed all of Cross ' limbs . award , it is established masses can hark back from the Quantum Realm ( Waspis all aboutsaving Janet van Dyne from that attribute ) , but it would be a turn of a reaching to say Cross hold out his fight with Scott . There ’s also no literal storytelling reason that requires Yellowjacket to be back for the subsequence ; he ’s served his purpose in the overall story , and it ’s time for Ant - Man and the Wasp to face up a young adversary . This clock time out , they ’ll besquaring off against Ghost , who is one of the more mysterious aspect in marketing so far .
As for the whim of possibly seeing Darren Cross down the line in Phase 4 and beyond , that seems highly unbelievable . With the exception of fan - favorite Loki , main MCU villains typically see their time in the enfranchisement end after a individual instalment . Perhaps things would be a bit different if Yellowjacket was an integral part ofAnt - Man’ssuccess , but he is n’t regard as one of the MCU ’s strongest villains , so the film maker might be less disposed to seek to institute him back ( see : chatter aboutMichael B. Jordan inBlack Panther 2 ) . Of naturally , Darren Cross was a utterly serviceable villain inAnt - Man , but it look like everyone has moved past him .
