Michael Selling at SDCC in 1973 | The Miniscule Ant-Man Starring In a Movie???? 'Ant-Man' is an announced super-hero theatrical film based on the Marvel Comics character Ant-Man.'Ant-Man' will be directed by Edgar Wright, of 'Shaun of the Dead' fame. The script is written by Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish. The theatrical movie will be produced by Avi Arad, financed by Marvel Studios, and to be released by Paramount Pictures. Tina and I attended the Marvel Movies program at the San Diego Comic Con International last summer where this was announced. Marvel will be financing its' own movies as much as possible after it has been proven that comic book movies can be profitably made. However, to choose Ant-Man, who I personally love as a character based on the Hank Pym version, to be one of the first to have his own movie financed by Marvel seems to be a long-shot, (no pun intended). The director spoke at the program, and his choice of Scott Lang, who took Hank Pym's equipment and became the second version of Ant-Man, to be the star of this movie just doesn't ring true for me. There is supposed to be a flashback of Hank Pym as the first Ant-Man at the beginning of the movie, but time will tell if that is in the released version.
