Judy Greer says that she occasionally forgets about her role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

"I don't have a superpower, so sometimes I forget that I'm a part of the Marvel universe," Greer told Insider. "Although, I would love for Marvel to give me a superpower at some point. Come on, guys."

The 45-year-old actress made her debut as Maggie, the ex-wife of Scott Lang/Ant-Man and mother of their daughter named Cassie, in 2015's "Ant-Man." She also appeared in the sequel titled "Ant-Man and the Wasp," released three years later.

Marvel has already confirmed that a third standalone movie is in the works, "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," with Peyton Reed returning as the director.

Paul Rudd is reprising his role as the titular superhero, and fans can expect to see Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas, and Michelle Pfeiffer back together.

Joining the cast are Jonathan Majors as comic book villain Kang the Conqueror and Kathryn Newton as Cassie/Stature. The latter role was previously played by Abby Ryder Fortson, followed by Emma Fuhrmann in "Avengers: Endgame" after the five-year time jump.

Greer told Insider that she's not sure if she'll be part of "Ant-Man 3."

"I don't know," she said. "No one has reached out to me yet. So, I'm crossing my fingers because it's a really good time."

"Working with Peyton Reed and Paul and Bobby Cannavale is a little over the top with how much we laugh on set," the "13 Going on 30" star said, adding that they "ruined a lot of takes" because they couldn't contain their giggles.

For now, Greer said that she's thrilled to see some of her past castmates thriving in the MCU.

This includes Andy Serkis, who costarred in "13 Going on 30" and played the villain Ulysses Klaue in "Black Panther."

Greer joked that Serkis' role in "13 Going on 30" was "one of the last times we've seen Andy Serkis' full face as it was given to him," since he's known for doing motion capture work for roles in films like "Lord of the Rings" and the "Planet of the Apes" movies.

"I love that I got to work with him as a human being," Greer joked.

The actress also starred in the 2020 Amazon movie "Uncle Frank" with Paul Bettany and worked with Randall Park on "Ant-Man 2." Bettany and Park currently star as Vision and FBI agent Jimmy Woo, respectively, on Marvel's "WandaVision."

The delightful return of Parks' Jimmy on "WandaVision" even resulted in fans rallying for the character to get a spin-off series of his own.

Greer told Insider that she hasn't watched "WandaVision" yet, but she's thrilled that Park is getting the recognition he deserves.

"Randall's amazing," she said. "Couldn't be happier for all of his success."

Greer also said that she knew Park long before crossing paths in the MCU because they starred in a pilot together approximately 11 or 12 years ago that didn't get greenlit.

"It didn't get picked up and I just always loved him," she said. "And I thought, that guy is so special and he's so funny and so talented and such a good guy. And I just was so happy when he kind of broke out."

"I think that if you're an actor in Hollywood for long enough, you're going to be in the Marvel universe," Greer said. "It's just going to happen. They make like half of all the movies and TV shows now."
