With Ant-Man 3 on the way, Peyton Reed took the time to confirm that one Ant-Man 2 villain will not be making a reappearance this time around.
Director Peyton Reed confirms that Walton Goggins' Sonny Burch will not be making a reappearance in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. When Marvel Studios released Ant-Man and the Wasp in 2018, the film left audiences with questions relating to the character of Burch and his overall importance to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, particularly his relation to his "benefactor.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Fans will be disappointed with the update regarding Burch, as Reed sat down with Legado de Marvel to discuss the film and what he has in store. While he admitted that they had thought long and hard about it, stating, "we have our own ideas," once he realized that the Quantum Realm would be a major factor, he chose to focus on that story instead. Numerous films go through the process of deciding what story factors are most important.
Well, for that particular question, you may have to wait a little bit longer. I love Sonny Burch, I love Walton Goggins, who I cast in [Ant-Man and the Wasp]. But yes, he was definitely sort of working in service of someone. I don’t know that we’ll answer that in [Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania], because we have a lot of story to tell in the Quantum Realm in this movie. But I love that fans have theories about that.
The ending of Ant-Man and the Wasp depicted Burch getting arrested by the authorities, so it would be difficult for him to return. However, seeing as how characters in custody, such as Justin Hammer and Helmut Zemo, have made reappearances, it is not impossible for him to somehow be back on the streets.
While it doesn't look like Burch will be returning any time soon, and Goggins most likely is as in the dark as everyone else, Reed does hold onto hope that audiences will see him somewhere down the line and finally get to know who his benefactor is. Goggins isn't the only person absent from the new film, as it looks like Michael Peña will also be missing in favor of his co-star David Dastmalchian.
