“Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” star Corey Stoll is taking himself out of that particular discussion.Stoll first appeared in the MCU as Darren Cross, Hank Pym’s (Michael Douglas) protégé and Scott Lang’s (Paul Rudd) ultimate villain in “Ant-Man,” after stealing the Yellowjacket suit. And though he appeared to be killed at the end of that film, “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” reveals that he actually wound up in the Quantum Realm, barely alive, but still there. When he was found by Kang the Conqueror (Jonathan Majors), he was turned into M.O.D.O.K.
or Mechanized Organism Designed Only For Killing. So now, instead of the man he once was, he’s essentially a big floating head with a very tiny body, doing Kang’s bidding. And to say that the final on-screen version of M.O.D.O.K.
divided the internet would be putting it gently. Where some thought he looked perfectly ridiculous, others…disagreed. As for Stoll’s first reaction to the organism? He’s still processing.“You know, I think I’m the last person you should ask this because it’s sort of like, you know, one’s own face — one tends to be very familiar with one’s own face,” Stoll told TheWrap.
“And then to see it warped and distorted, and, you know, 30 feet high like that, it’s pretty head-swimming. So I think I’m the last person that you should ask about that.”Looks aside, the actor says he was “all for” leaning into the chaos of M.O.D.O.K. Because in reality, Stoll says his performance in the character was “the least technical filming that you could do.” Obviously he had the typical CGI dots on his face and the basic necessities, but other than that, he was able to sit in a room and just play.
