Es war schon ein langes Warten auf "Avengers", doch die meisten Comic-Fans sind aktuell vor allem auf einen Superhelden gespannt: "Ant-Man". Und dies nicht nur, weil die Figur ebenso zu den Avengers gehört und eine der interessanteren ist (durch Intelligenz und Fähigkeit), sondern weil kein geringerer als Edgar Wright ("Shaun of the Dead") inszenieren wird. Nun gab diese ein paar kleine Details preis:
"I want to make him into a badass [laughs]. No, I always liked that comic and I always thought it would be an interesting thing to see in live-action. That's why I [showed] that Comic-Con test that we did for Marvel, to show this fight scene like a proof of content, like this is what the action is going to look like. I think a lot of people who maybe don't know the character sort of see that test and go, "Oh, right, I get it. It's like an action film," so that's the idea. I think people will be surprised by what kind of movie it is, and so in that respect it's something that I know is going to stand out because it's got a very different story and is a very different movie."
"Well, I think the Marvel movies are funny, you know? I think generally the Iron Man films and The Avengers is funny. They're not ever in the comedy section, but they are funny and entertaining, so I think it'll be something in a similar vein to that."
Wright ist also ein großer Fan des Comics und will die Zuschauer überraschen, weil sie weder so eine Figur erwarten, noch diese Art von Film.
Release wird der 31.07.2015 sein, während das Drehbuch von Wright und Joe Cornish geschrieben wird.
