An awful lot has happened in the world - A Second World War super soldier has risen from the dead, a billionaire playboy has revealed himself as a costumed superhero, and the Norse God of thunder himself has come to earth on four occasions. So for Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), a petty criminal entrusted with the secret of his mentor's super-secret substance designed to shrink a person, it should be seen as just another day in the life for a person of planet Earth. Now, with the ability to shrink his down to a minuscule size while increasing his strength, Ant-Man is born.
'Ant-Man' originally went into producTIon back in the late 1980s, when Marvel creator Stan Lee set about trying to make it the first Marvel feature film. Due to the impending release of 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids', the film was scrapped. The project was restarted in 2003 when Edgar Write ('Shaun of the Dead', 'The World's End') began preproduction for the film. However, with the film almost ready to go into production, Write left the project in May 2014, causing Peyton Reed ('Yes Man') to take over. 'Ant-Man', the first part of phase three for the Marvel Cinematic Universe will hit US theatres on 17th July, 2015.
