"Ant-Man" will expand the Marvel Cinematic Universe, bringing a new hero into the fold, and giving the studio another chance to try something a little different. But let there be no mistake, there are lots of actual ants in the movie too, as you might expect from a hero named Ant-Man.
"You are gonna see more ants than you probably wanna see [Laughter]…the ants at the beginning of the film, you see from a normal person’s point of view and there’s a couple of lines, just that are dismissed about there being an ant problem in Hank’s house, or seeing some ants in a kitchen of this one-bedroom apartment where Scott Lang lives. And they should be a gross sort of ants that you don’t want in your kitchen. We reveal later that those ants are working for Hank. Hank’s controlling those ants," Kevin Feige told Screen Rant.
"There are so many different kinds of ant species, and we’re gonna see a good half dozen or dozen of them in this film, and I hope in a way that you’re sort of cheering for them and upset if one, two or three get blown away by the bad guy," he added.
Of course, there are real actors and characters too and you can see some of them in this first clip from the film which finds Scott Lang getting throw into the deep end, quite literally, with this first go around at wearing the superhero suit.
"Ant-Man" opens on July 17th. Watch below along with a new TV spot.
