Director Peyton Reed revealed that Cassie’s age in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” is set at “18. At first glance, one might think that since Emma Furman is closer to Kathy’s age, she should continue to play the role, but why did the role of Kathy go to Kathleen, who is older than Emma?

It is believed that the casting change was due to the fact that Emma’s Cassie had only a few scenes in “Avengers: Endgame” and that the character of Cassie will have a much larger role in the MCU going forward than she has in the past.

According to reports, Cassie is set to join the MCU’s “Young Avengers” at some point, and Marvel may have wanted the character to be played by a more experienced actress.

Emma has been involved in several projects before and after “Avengers: Endgame. Meanwhile, Kathleen has appeared in several blockbuster movies at this point, including “Paranormal Activity 4” (2012) and “Pokémon Detective Pikachu” (2019), as well as “Big Little Lies” and “Supernatural” She has also appeared in popular dramas.

Marvel has not said anything about the replacement of the actress playing Cassie, but JustJaredJr.
