Paul Rudd looks ageless at Ant-Man premiere in Sydney

It’s set to be one of the biggest films of the year.

And the cast of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania descended on Sydney on Thursday for the Australian premiere of the 31st film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Leading man Paul Rudd, 53,  looked perfectly cool in a crisp white suit and shiny black shoes which he paired with a noughties style skinny tie.

Together, with Hope’s parents Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer) and Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), and Scott’s daughter Cassie Lang (Kathryn Newton), the family finds themselves exploring the Quantum Realm, interacting with strange new creatures, and embarking on an adventure that will push them beyond the limits of what they thought possible. 

While most of the cast didn’t attend, Majors, who is said to play the MCU’s most powerful villain to date, looked suave in a relaxed double breasted black suit. 

Joining Hollywood’s finest on the red carpet were some of Sydney’s most about-town socialites.

Rudd admitted he ‘worked really hard to get back into shape’ for the highly anticipated Marvel movie and that it ended up being ‘so much harder’ than it was for the 2018 sequel. 

‘I had fallen off more than I had in the past. All of a sudden my clothes fit tight. And I thought, God, this sucks. I can’t even wear these pants,’ he told Men’s Health this month.

‘So I’d say to myself, “Well, I might as well just eat some of these cookies”. I was irritable and self-conscious. I just wasn’t in a good mood. I really beat myself up.’
