An eagle-eyed Twitter account posted a screengrab revealing an Easter egg in Ant-Man and the Wasp that’s been hidden in plain sight since its release.
A video interview with David Tennant (Jessica Jones, Doctor Who) posted on Marvel’s Facebook page shows him answering “Ant-Man” when asked “out of the Avengers, who would cry the most watching The Fault in Our Stars?” Little did he know that two years later, he’d be proven correct when early on in Ant Man and the Wasp, we see Scott Lang, played by Paul Rudd, in floods of tears while reading John Green’s infamously emotional novel. Spoiler warning, The Fault in Our Stars isn’t a happy tale.
Moviedetail, the account who posted the discovery, is self described as ‘dedicated to the obscure details and Easter eggs found in movies’ and its entire feed is filled with all sorts of neat movie trivia. Their tweet shows a screengrab of the Tennant interview stitched together with another showing the moment in Ant-Man and the Wasp where Scott is gripped by the tragedy of it all.
This isn’t the only Ant-Man-related Easter egg to have come out recently; reddit user SuperiorArachnid pointed out a cool detail in the Spider-Man PS4 game. When one mission sees Spider-Man and Mary Jane breaking into Norman Osborn’s house, a certificate from the Pym Foundation Award awarded to Osborn can be seen on a wall. For those in the dark about what this means, Henry “Hank” Pym is the discoverer of the Pym particle which enables Ant-Man to shrink or enlarge objects and they play a key part in Avengers: Endgame. Esteemed actor Michael Douglas plays Henry Pym in both Ant-Man movies.
So while David Tennant is most famous for playing a time traveling alien, maybe there’s more to this story than meets the eye? Tennant’s own reasoning for his prophetic reply seems suspicious, he even says he doesn’t know why he chose it, just that “[Ant-Man] was over there?” Could it be just coincidence? Could it have been something that made Ant-Man and the Wasp‘s writers laugh and decided to include in the screenplay? Or could it be that Tennant, who recently said he’d be keen to join the Marvel universe, knows more than he’s telling?
