It’s been a long information drought regarding Edger Wright’s big screen version of ANT-MAN. So long, in fact, that most people were doubting it would ever come to pass.
But speaking to Marvel’s Kevin Feige, SuperheroHype got it out of him that yes, the project is moving forward, though it’s likely we won’t see it for quite a while.
“Edgar was in LA last week, we sat down, and we started working on a calendar of when to get him back into it once he finishes promoting Scott Pilgrim, so I think towards the end of this year, early next year we’d start looking at early prep for that, but certainly for a release date after The Avengers.”
Sadly, no mention of a possibly pairing with Pixar, as we wished for in an April Fool’s posting this year, but Wright is a director who seldom does wrong, so presumably whatever direction he decides to take the project will be a good one. But if we’re being honest, I’d love for him to finish his Cornetto Trilogy with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost first. THE WORLD’S END awaits.
