Marvel is attempting to uncover more information about the Reddit user who publicly posted dialogue from Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania a month before the film hit theaters.

According to reports, Marvel filed a request in Californian federal district court to issue a subpoena demanding Reddit to reveal the person/s behind the leak. The Disney-owned studio is asking for “all Identifying Information for the user ‘u/MSSmods’” and “any other user(s) responsible for posting, editing, and/or maintaining the content” that was on the /MarvelStudiosSpoilers subreddit during January 15 to February 15, pursuant to the United States’ Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

A Reddit rep not confirm whether it will be cooperating with Marvel, “Reddit is committed to protecting our users’ privacy. We have rigorous processes in place to assess legal requests and object when appropriate.”

In addition, Marvel filed a similar subpoena request for Google based on the report that the leak was shared as a document via Google Docs.

63 pages worth of dialogue from the film was posted around January 20, 2023, while the movie debuted in the US on February 17.

Elsewhere in entertainment, FX has debuted a teaser trailer for season two of The Bear.
