Actress Evangeline Lilly hopes her "Ant-Man" character Hope van Dyne will go on to feature in more Marvel movies.

The 35-year-old brunette beauty stars as Hope van Dyne - the daughter of Henry Pym and Janet van Dyne, AKA the original Ant-Man and Wasp - in the new "Ant-Man" movie and hopes her contract will see her become the new Wasp and move into the wider superhero universe, reported Contactmusic.

"I would love to see her join the 'Avengers'. Hope is a very, very capable, intelligent and, to a certain extent, lethal woman, even in her own right, without any superhero powers," Lilly said
 

"There is that element that she is the Wasp's daughter and a chance to create that is fun. As far as the plans for her going forward... I think everyone who signs with Marvel has to sign a multi-picture deal. I'm just crossing my fingers that that turns into something, that they ask me back and that I have to do more movies.
