Black Widow who? Evangeline Lilly's Wasp could be new choice to lead all-female Marvel ensemble movie

Dishing on the possibilities of a Hope Van Dyne/Wasp-led ensemble, Peyton Reed even talked about a hypothetical situation, where his star is the head of an all-female Avengers.

While DC has been moving full steam with the Margot Robbie-led ensemble flick 'Birds of Prey',  plans of an all-female superhero flick are still in the nascent stage over at Marvel. This is beside the fact that filmmakers working with the Marvel Cinematic Universe are practically spoilt for choice, thanks to the comic book's vast catalog of femme fatales and superheroines. 

In the recent past, though, there has been a budding chatter about Black Widow getting some extra screen time, perhaps even leading a team of Avengers, after she is done starring in her own solo outing. And yet, for the time being, that conversation seems to have been moved to the backburner as right now all eyes are on a brand new Marvel star - Wasp - portrayed by actress Evangeline Lilly in Peyton Reed's last blockbuster 'Ant-Man and the Wasp'.
