Bill Murray Joins the Cast of ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’. After weeks of rumors, the news has been confirmed! Bill Murray is officially making his MCU debut in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Murray confirmed the casting in an interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, sharing:
“You know, recently I made a Marvel movie. I probably won’t tell you, but never mind. In any case, some people were quite surprised why I decided on such a project. But for me the thing was quite clear: I got to know the director – and really liked him very much. He [Peyton Reed] was funny, humble, everything you want from a director. And with the cheerleader story Bring It On he made a movie years ago, which I think is damn good. So I agreed, although I’m not interested in these huge comic book adaptations as an actor otherwise.”
