Randall Park recently commented on reprising his Ant-Man and the Wasp role in Elizabeth Olsen’s upcoming WandaVision series.
Randall Park is currently one of the few actors who is starring in both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC Extended Universe. As it turns out, Randall Park appeared in Ant-Man and the Wasp and Aquaman in the same year too. In Ant-Man and the Wasp, Randall Park played FBI Agent Jimmy Woo.
At D23 last summer, it was announced that Randall Park would be reprising his role as Jimmy Woo in Elizabeth Olsen’s WandaVision series. Based on the brief amount of WandaVision footage we have seen so far, it looks like the series will be unlike anything we’ve ever seen from Marvel Studios. In a recent interview on Build, Randall Park teased how different Elizabeth Olsen’s WandaVision will be:
“It’s an out there show. I’m reprising my role as Jimmy Woo that I played in Ant-Man and the Wasp. I’m going to Atlanta tomorrow to do a table read. I can’t say too much, but it’s an amazing show…very different.”
Randall Park also touched on how he got involved with Marvel Studios again for WandaVision:
“I had a meeting over at Marvel, just a kind of general thing to talk about where I was at and where they’re at I was like, ‘Yeah, I would love to bring Jimmy Woo back if there was ever the opportunity.’ And then like a week later they were like, ‘Hey, come back, we want to talk to you about this show.’ And I was like, ‘Great.'”

Here is the official synopsis for Elizabeth Olsen’s WandaVision:
Marvel Studios’ “WandaVision” blends the style of classic sitcoms with the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany)—two super-powered beings living their ideal suburban lives—begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems.
Directed by Matt Shakman with Jac Schaeffer as head writer, WandaVision stars Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, Paul Bettany as The Vision, Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, Kat Dennings as Darcy Lewis, Randall Park as Agent Jimmy Woo, and Kathryn Hahn in an undisclosed role.
WandaVision will be premiere exclusively on Disney Plus in December 2020. Stay tuned to Heroic Hollywood for all the latest news on Elizabeth Olsen’s WandaVision and the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
