I was already pretty much expecting it to happen anyway, but it's good to have a confirmation. And let us not forget that Charles Murphy, who first broke the news about the movie happening, also said he heard rumors about the Young Avengers in it. Even if he's not right about that, I'm still at least looking forward to see what Cassie's role is going to be. I'm hoping we get a flashback sequence showing us what she was up to in the 5 years after The Snap. I think it could be a great way to set her up as a hero in the present time.
How old is current MCU Cassie? She looked to be in her 20's but she could've been late teens.
She's definitely in her mid-teens. She was around 10/11 on Ant-Man And The Wasp, so with the time jump she'd be 15/16 in the present time. Considering AM3 is likely to come out in 2022, they can make the movie take place right after the events of Endgame, which were set in 2023, so Cassie wouldn't have to age at all ever since the last time we saw her and still be in the right age to become Stature/Stinger. Well, not EXACTLY the right age, since she became Stature at the age of 14 in the comics, but I don't think it's a big deal if she's a bit older in the MCU. She'd be the same age as the other members of the team were when they started in the comics.

Well there's a plot twist. Thought they were leaning away from Stinger with Marvel Comics #1000 but I guess it was more a homage to the original Young Avengers team more than anything? Very excited for the new book nonetheless!
edit: also was this changed to an ongoing? I thought it was called Ant-Man World Hive?

Good to know it's her. I'm not too crazy about the design right now; I liked the OG Stinger one better. But I think it'll grow on me. I wonder if this one will stick...
Here's a more detailed look at the design:
Yeah, the fact that they dropped the subtitle made me wonder if they decided to turn it into an ongoing. I hope so, 'cause it's been a while since we've had an Ant-Man ongoing book. I wish they had named it Ant-Man & Stinger, though, just because I think Cassie has earned to have her name in the title at this point (and because I'm still bitter that Nadia got to headline a title with Scott before Cassie ever did).

I think World Hive was just the title of an arc. It's hardly the first time Marvel has advertised individual arcs.

The helmet looks too much like her dad's and I think the full purple bodysuit looks a lot better then the half purple, half black, look they have going on here.
Although if you took the helmet and wings off, it would basically be a Stature costume.
Considering it's an Ant-Man book, I think it'll be lucky to go past 6 issues.Yeah, the fact that they dropped the subtitle made me wonder if they decided to turn it into an ongoing.
