So they're not making Kang the Conqueror's face blue. Like, at all.
Maybe it'll go blue when he activates the visor or sum

I was surprised to see her in the lineup of the Thunderbolts. I thought for sure she was being quietly jettisoned if she wasn't going to turn up in this.

Are you just jumping to conclusions based on these images or did you hear/read something?

Admittedly yes, I am purely jumping to conclusions based on these "leaked" images. Though I've wondered what they'd do in this regard since the moment that dude was cast and revealed and I'd suspected they'd go this route. Marvel/Disney fearing the FAKE journalistic articles that would pop up about, "They're covering up/obscuring a proud black man in blue makeup! Why?!" and so on. I mean, I guess the Silver Surfer is safe because it's locked into the name, at least?

This is where we're at.

That's what I expect. In the comics it's a blue mask, but in the movies it will possibly be a blue energy screen or something.....

I feel like that's 100% what Feige and Marvel will do, they're capable enough writers to throw the comics fans a pinpoint-accurate visual easter egg like that but they know that some of these OG costume designs are just Really Really Bad (see: original Vision, original Hawkeye, original Wolverine (yeah I said it) the list goes on). For Kang it could even be part of a heads-up display inside his helmet, it would make sense

The comic Kang doesn't have blue skin. It's a skin tight mask that's attached to his helmet. It's not like the character is known for never taking it off either, he's gone helmet-less many times in the comics. I can easily see them doing a retractable blue face mask or visor as people suggest, he has it in the poster so that's a pretty good sign it will be included.

Oh, OK. I've only ever seen images him with the blue-face, ever.

All I see are a bunch of people standing in front of green-screens. I like the character, but no way am I sitting through this, unless it completely subverts what I am expecting.

Same; the Ant-Man films have been pretty consistently good, IMO. Hope this one continues the trend.

It hardly looks groundbreaking or amazing or anything else that the typical mouth-breather goes on about it looking "like the best Marvel movie YET!".

It looks like a decent popcorn flick.

William Jackson Harper has entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Sources tell Variety that the actor will appear in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” though his role remains a closely guarded secret. Marvel declined to comment on his casting.

I wonder if this is going to have a satisfying ending, given we know Kang goes on to feature in the Avengers movies afterward. Are we just going to get a "notable but minor skirmish" with the guy?

Also Looks like the who is Modok in the movie rumor is true
Spoiler:

Modok is Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket from Ant-Man1

Different variants of Kang are going to be the villain in this next wave of Marvel movies. I really enjoy Johnathon Majors' work, he killed it in Loki and I look forward to seeing how they differentiate his different variants.

Oh, that's gonna be fun when the helmet comes off

Just over a month out from this, nice. I have been avoiding spoilers as of late but I read some early last year. Gonna try to go in without any expectations

Reviews are coming in.

Consensus is it does a good job setting up stakes and characters for the phase ahead, but really leaves little breathing room for a standalone Ant Man movie.

Oof. 63% on RT
