Save for maybe Chris Hemsworth’s surprising trim for 2017’s Thor: Ragnarok, few Marvel actors have had their hairstyles as scrutinized as Evangeline Lilly.
Leading up to 2015’s Ant-Man, Lilly made headlines for her “very Waspy” layered bob before it was even confirmed that her character, Hope van Dyne, would inherit the Wasp mantle from her mother, Janet. Lilly drew praise again for wearing her longer hair in a ponytail on 2018’s Ant-Man and the Wasp, with admirers pointing out the pragmatism of the look as opposed to other action heroines (i.e., Wonder Woman) who wear their hair down in the thick of battle.
And while Lilly’s decision to shave her head in 2019 was not at all Ant-Man- or Wasp-related, it ultimately teed up yet another new ’do for the 43-year-old Lost alum in this week’s threequel Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.
“It was kind of a convergence of circ*mstances,” Lilly explains in a new interview with Yahoo Entertainment. “About four years ago I shaved my head, just for fun. And I had then grown it out into a pixie, and I was living like this, except it was blond.
“So when the film came up, like we were going to be doing it, the question was, ‘Do I put a wig on, and match the previous film or do something different? Or do we just go with what I have and just dye it dark?’ And I always like to take inspiration from the comic books. I did in the first film. The original Hope Van Dyke haircut was a call to the comic book Janet Van Dyne haircut. And I just liked the idea of doing another callback to the original Wasp in the comics. And she often had a little short, dark pixie cut, so we went for it.”
If you think Lilly’s autonomy when it came to Hope’s hair might have been challenged by Marvel — a studio famous for its immaculate attention to every single detail – you’d be surprised.
“You would think it would go through more [approvals], but it felt more like, ‘Whatever you want to do with your hair,’” Lilly says.
“And I was like, ‘OK, cool, do you like this?’ I just showed them the comics.”
Hope van Dyne (née Pym) is a fictional character portrayed primarily by Evangeline Lilly in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film franchise, loosely based on the Marvel Comics character Hope Pym.

Yesterday, Lilly took to Instagram to share a throwback from the first Ant-Man movie, which featured her much-discussed hairstyle. Many people have spent the last six years assuming Lilly was wearing a wig, but it turns out she wasn't! #tbt Throw back to a dark, quiet moment in my trailer with Hope Van Dyne.
Corey Stoll as Darren Cross / M.O.D.O.K.: Pym's former protégé who was shrunken to subatomic size in the Quantum Realm during the events of Ant-Man (2015) and became a mutated, cybernetically enhanced individual with an oversized head known as M.O.D.O.K.
Lost alumna Evangeline Lilly has said she is ready to leave acting — for now. In an Instagram post, Lilly wrote in part, “Stepping away from what seems like the obvious choice (wealth and fame) can feel scary at times, but stepping into your dharma replaces the fear with fulfillment.
In the case of “Ant-Man 3,” it will barely have a two multiple at the domestic box office, a sign that interest completely evaporated after landing on the big screen. By comparison the first film had a multiple of 3.2 and the sequel had a multiple of 2.9.
Hello. I am here today to talk to you about the actress Michelle Pfeiffer's wig in the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.
“I'd like to be writing, and potentially maybe influencing people's lives in a more humanitarian way.” More than a decade later, Lilly is making good on that promise by “stepping away” from the industry that has given her roles in franchises like Marvel's Ant-Man and The Hobbit.
Evangeline kisses Jacks suddenly, and he can't help but kiss her back. He drops the box containing his heart, and it goes back into his soul. Jacks fights through, and Evangeline survives. They realise that the curse is broken, and they can be together.
Evangeline has never had a puff of a cigarette. In 2003, Evangeline Lilly married Murray Hone, her long-time boyfriend who was also a hockey player. The marriage lasted just over a year.
Lilly was between 24 and 30 years of age during the show's run, appearing in 108 of 121 episodes, as her character, Kate Austen, was the show's female lead. In 2006 she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Television Series Drama.
The overall effect was a movie that didn't have the spirit of the previous Ant-Man movies and also wasn't breaking any new ground. It truly felt like Marvel was phoning it in, making a movie just to tease its next few movies. It's one thing to be bad while trying to do something ambitious.
In the film when Scott returns back home he eats a cake which he says tastes awful. Now, this could simply be bad baking skills. However many fans have theorized that Scott didn't return to his version of Earth. That's why the cake tasted bad, because this is not his universe i.e. 616.
The original Hope Van Dyke haircut was a call to the comic book Janet Van Dyne haircut. And I just liked the idea of doing another callback to the original Wasp in the comics. And she often had a little short, dark pixie cut, so we went for it.”
Not beating around to bush, Reed said that he chose to replace Cassie because he admired Newton as an actor, and wanted someone who could keep up with Paul Rudd. Meaning, he wanted someone as quick-witted and sharp as he is since Scott's daughter should take after him.
Then, she talked about how heavy the wigs she wore on set were. "I had done a lot of movies and played with costumes and wigs, and they used to be so ghastly," she said. "They used to weigh tons." When the actress first started Eva Gabor International, she almost went broke after her idea of selling franchises failed.
As explained in Ant-Man and the Wasp, Ava Starr gained phasing abilities after her father's Quantum Tunnel exploded, causing her to become intangible for brief periods. Her powers cause her extreme pain and eventually, they will tear her apart.
