‘Marvel’s Ant-Man’ was victim to some unfortunate behind the scenes shuffling before filming was even underway. The first teaser trailer did little to to quell people’s fears. The film looked to be filled with humor that fell flat, generic action, and little to no heart. But, perhaps Marvel was showing their hand a little earlier than they should have, because this morning they released the full length trailer, to much better results.
The new trailer has plenty of action, and a fantastic gag at the end that should inspire faith. There is a lot here to like. So perhaps all is not lost on Marvel’s smallest hero just yet.
The next evolution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe brings a founding member of The Avengers to the big screen for the first time with Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man.” Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, master thief Scott Lang must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.
Marvel’s “Ant-Man” stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang aka Ant-Man, Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne, Corey Stoll as Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket, Bobby Cannavale as Paxton, Michael Peña as Luis, Judy Greer as Maggie, Tip “Ti” Harris as Dave, David Dastmalchian as Kurt, Wood Harris as Gale, Jordi Mollà as Castillo and Michael Douglas as Hank Pym. Directed by Peyton Reed and produced by Kevin Feige, Marvel’s “Ant-Man” delivers a high-stakes, tension-filled adventure on July 17, 2015.
