Marvel Studios has announced that "Ant-Man" has officially begun principal photography in San Francisco, California, with additional shoots to take place in Atlanta, Georgia. The film, directed by Peyton Reed, stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang,Michael Douglas as Hank Pym and Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne.

The press release accompanying the announcement also identified a number of other as-yet unannounced cast members including "Archer" and "Arrested Development's"Judy Greer, "The Wire's" Wood Harris and "Mad Men" actor John Slattery, presumably reprising his "Iron Man 2" role as an older Howard Stark. Other cast members include Corey Stoll, Bobby Canavale, Michael Pena, Abby Ryder Fortson,David Dastmalchian, Gregg Turkington (also known as Neil Hamburger) and T.I..

Also included in the press release was the official synopsis of the film, which can be found below.

Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), 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.


Originally slated to be written and directed by Edgar Wright, "Ant-Man" has been in development since 2006. Wright and Marvel Studios parted ways this past May, with Reed subsequently joining the film as director, and "Anchorman" writer/director Adam McKay added to contribute to Wright and Joe Cornish's script.

"Ant-Man" is set for release on July 17, 2015.

Is anyone else hyped for this?

As Marvel Studios begins principal photography on its newest Super Hero franchise, "Ant-Man," additional casting announcements have been made.

Joining star Paul Rudd as Scott Lang aka Ant-Man, Michael Douglas as his mentor Dr. Hank Pym, and Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne, daughter of Hank Pym, are Wood Harris and T.I., along with Corey Stoll, Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña, Abby Ryder Fortson, Judy Greer, David Dastmalchian, John Slattery and Gregg Turkington.

No word on what specific roles each of the above actors have been cast to play.

Based on the Marvel comic character first published in 1962, Marvel’s "Ant-Man"continues the lineage of big-screen adventures chronicled in Marvel’s “Iron Man,” “The Incredible Hulk,” “Iron Man 2,” “Thor,” “Captain America: The First Avenger,” “Marvel’s The Avengers,” “Iron Man 3,” “Thor: The Dark World,” “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” “Guardians of the Galaxy," "Black Panther" and "Luke Cage"... oh, wait a minute; scratch the last 2. I got carried away there.

Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats.

Set for release on July 17, 2015, the film is directed by Peyton Reed (“Bring it On,” “The Break-Up”).

The movie was already fukked from the second Edgar Wright left, so don't expect this film to be good at all

As far as Wood Harris goes, he's a good actor so I'm glad he's getting more work

LOL I'm glad he's getting worked too breh I just couldn't help but make a joke. I'm still not interested in the flick one way or another
