Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania writer breaks down MODOK inspiration: "He’s a real loose cannon"
Jeff Loveness says some of the movie’s b🐠est momen🌃ts come from MODOK

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will introduce a major new villain in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kang the Conqueror – but he's not the only character Marvel fans are desperate to meet in the upcoming movie. The third Ant-Man movie will also mark the MCU debut of MODOK, or Mental 🌠Organism Designed Only for Killing, and writer Jeff Loveness has revealed how much fun it was to introduce the absurd supervillain.
"MODOK is maybe my single favorite thing that I got in the movie," Loveness says in the upcoming issue of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:SFX magazine, which features Star Trek: Picard on the cover. "Obviously we are very faithful to the comics with the design and the look, but then there is a little bit of extra we put into him. Maybe I’ll get fired off 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Kang Dynasty when people see it, but some of my favorite moments come from MODOK and♋ the dynamics there.
"I’ll just say he was inspired by Kevin Kline in A Fish Called 🍷Wanda and Frank Grimes in an old Simpsons episode – this really put-upon, selfish, entitled but then also deeply sad, insecure man who knows that he got a shit deal in life and is trying to make the best of it."
MODOK is essentially a malevolent giant head in a flying chair and is one of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s most utterly out-there creations. He’ll be played in the new movie by Corey Stoll, and we’ve 𝄹alread🌃y seen a glimpse at his design in the movie’s trailer.
"♔His ego will crumble the second he’s challenged but then also like Kevin Kline in A Fish Called Wanda, he’s pretty good at killing people," Loveness adds. "He&rsquo🎀;s a real loose cannon character and I had a great amount of fun with him. That was almost day one in the room – we cracked MODOK as a character and the movie just became so fun."
