10 Things We Learned From The 6-Minute Ant-Man Trailer
The teaser premiered with Jurassic World in IMAX.
Ant-Man is one of Marvel's most experimental films. The character isn't quite as obscure pre-filming as the Guardians Of The Galaxy, but he's no Thor or Iron Man, let alone a Spider-Man or Wolverine. Moreover, all three major versions of the character have had some likability issues: Hank Pym, despite everything, is best-known as the superhero who, in the middle of a nervous breakdown, abused and slapped his wife. Scott Lang is a former thief who was abrasive in his early appearances, and Eric O'Grady was, for most of his career, more amoral than either. And then there's the fact that this is the first Marvel film to change directors. Edgar Wright, the renowned director of Hot Fuzz and The World's End, wrote much of the story and script, but eventually walked off the project due to creative differences with Marvel. Will the project be able to overcome such issues and continue Marvel's streak of entertaining successes? Early signs point to yes. Somewhat excitingly, the latest Ant-Man trailer is not available online. You can only see it if you see Jurassic World, and furthermore, you'll have to see it in an IMAX theater. But if you can't get that sort of experience, this article has you covered.
