Paul Rudd’s cryptic answer fuels Ant-Man return in Avengers: Doomsday

Paul Rudd has once again sparked excitement among MCU fans as speculation grows about his return as Ant-Man in Avengers: Doomsday.

While promoting his latest film, Death of a Unicorn, Rudd addressed the rumours but remained tight-lipped, neither confirming nor denying his involvement.

His playful responses, however, have only added to the intrigue, making many wonder if he is keeping some Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) secrets under wraps.

Despite claiming he has not received any official word about reprising his role, Paul Rudd hinted at the possibility of being involved in Avengers: Doomsday during an interview with Collider.

With the film set to begin shooting in London next month, it will be difficult to keep the cast under wraps once major MCU stars start arriving in the city.

When asked about travel plans to London in April, Rudd responded with a knowing smile, saying, “Isn’t everyone travelling to London soon in this business?”
