The Hollywood Outsider – Film and Television Podcast | Reviews An award-winning film and television podcast for the fan in all of us
It’s finally here! Ok, this isn’t exactly The Avengers. Yet, with Marvel’s track record, many have been amped to see if they could take a comic like Ant-Man and make it a live-action film without the giggles. Starring Paul Rudd, the great Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly, and Corey Stoll – this has a cast to make this film work. Even though Edgar Wright parted ways and Marvel brought in Peyton Reed (yes, of Bring It On), the film still looks very much like what we have seen from the other Marvel films. Does it have the juice to be bigger than life? Well, here is the trailer. What do you think?
Armed with a super-suit with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang must embrace his inner hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.
Look for Ant-Man to hit theaters July 17, 2015!
