Some fans slammed Bill Murray's casting due to his recent misconduct allegations. Murray allegedly misbehaved with a ''younger woman'' on the set of Being Mortal. During an interview with CNBC, Murray said,

''I did something I thought was funny and it wasn’t taken that way. As of now, we are talking and we are trying to make peace with each other. We are both professionals, we like each others’ work, we like each other I think and if we can’t really get along and trust each other there’s no point in going further working together or making the movie as well. It’s been quite an education for me.''

Filming for Being Mortal has been put on hold since the allegations were made.

Not many details about Murray's character in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is known at this point. However, based on various reports, he's expected to play a villain in the movie.
