AceShowbiz - When he's not busy teaming up with other Marvel heroes and fighting against supervillains, Scott Lang still needs to make a living. As revealed in a new set photo of "Ant-Man and The Wasp", the ex-burglar appears to have a new job.
The set photo which surfaced online showed a van labelled with "X-Con Security Consultants." It's a nod to Scott's previous profession as a con-man and is in line with a plot line in the comics, in which Scott formed the Ant-Man Security Solutions.

Other set photos obtained by Just Jared featured Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas on the set in Atlanta, Ga. They're all dressed as civilians as it appeared that they didn't film an action scene.
