Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony “Ant-Man” Edwards just got a sick Marvel Studios chrome card, signed by none other than Paul Rudd, the OG Ant-Man himself. You’d think that’d be cool enough, right? Nah, Edwards took it to the next level, straight-up asking Rudd if he could sneak into the next ‘Ant-Man’ flick. My dude doesn’t just play ball, he’s got Hollywood dreams!
Edwards’ Hollywood Ambition Is Real
This isn’t just some random fanboy moment. Edwards has already proved he’s got acting game, crushing his debut as Kermit Wilts in the 2022 Adam Sandler joint, Hustle. So, when he pitched Rudd for a role? It wasn’t a total shocker. The man’s got charisma for days, and it looks like he wants to bring that fire to the big screen again.
‘Ant-Man 4’ Status: It’s Complicated
Here’s where it gets wild: While Rudd is totally locked in for Avengers: Doomsday, hitting theaters December 18, Marvel Studios hasn’t even whispered about plans for a fourth standalone ‘Ant-Man’ movie. Three solo films dropped between 2015 and 2023, but silence since. Edwards is out here manifesting a role in a movie that isn’t even officially on the books yet. Talk about putting it out into the universe!
What’s Next for Edwards?
For now, Edwards is holding onto that prized card from the other Ant-Man as he gears up for the 2026-27 NBA season. But seriously, imagine if Marvel actually made this happen? We’ll all be watching to see if his Hollywood hustle pays off, or if he’s strictly sticking to dominating the court. Either way, this is pure gold.
