It’s finally here! Watch Paul Rudd as a pint-sized hero in Marvel’s first full length, full size trailer for Ant-Man. No more super tiny 18-second teasers the real thing arrived during yesterday’s premiere of Agent Carter on ABC. The film stars Paul Rudd as the eponymous superhero and his alter ego Scott Lang, a con man who inherits this super suit that allows him to decrease in size and increase in strength. Michael Douglas takes the supporting role playing Dr Hank Pym, the original Ant-Man who mentors Lang and helps him pull off a daring heist.

“This is your chance to earn that look in your daughter’s eyes — to become the hero she already thinks you are.” Pym says to Lang. “It’s Not About Saving Our World, It’s About Saving Theirs” Family seems to be a primary focus for Ant-Man, perhaps this is reason that he finally decides to put on the magical suit. When we see him suited up for the first time we also get to see some big-time shrinking effects. The smaller Ant-Man becomes the bigger the adventure gets!
Ant-Man is certainly an oddball and at first glance it may seem like he is a B or even C-list character in the Marvel universe but he is in fact a founding Avenger – check out the cover of the first Avengers comic from the early 60s at the bottom of this page, alongside the poster for the movie.
Aside from Rudd and Douglas the cast also includes Evangeline Lilly, Corey Stoll, Judy Greer, Bobby Cannavale, Michael Pena and Martin Donovan. Payton Reed directs from a script by Edgar Wright, Joe Cornish, Andrew Barrer, Gabriel Ferrari and Adam McKay.
Ant-Man opens in cinemas on July 17.
