Marvel anunció hoy que el actor, Michael Douglas será el villano en la película de ANT-MAN. Douglas interpretará a “Hank Pym”, mientras que el filme sera dirigido por Edgar Wright.
¿Pero no habían confirmado ya al actor, Paul Rudd como “Ant-Man”? ¿Confundido?
Así es, pero al parecer ambos serán “Ant-Man”. Douglas será “Hank Pym”, el héroe original, mientras que Paul Rudd será “Scott Lang”, el héroe moderno. Al parecer, en algún momento de la historia, “Pym” se descarrila, convirtiéndolo así en el villano.
Kevin Feige, presidente de Marvel, dijo:
“With Hank Pym’s rich history in the Marvel Universe, we knew we needed an actor capable of bringing the weight and stature to the role that the character deserves,” said Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige. “We felt incredibly relieved when Michael Douglas agreed to step into the part with the charm and fortitude he brings to every character he inhabits, and couldn’t be more excited to see what he will do to bring Hank Pym to life.”
Edgar Wright, director de ANT-MAN, aquí describe su concepto/idea sobre la historia, en una entrevista en el 2006:
“The idea that we have for the adaptation is to actually involve both. Is to have a film that basically is about Henry Pym and Scott Lang, so you actually do a prologue where you see Pym as Ant-Man in action in the 60′s, in sort of “Tales to Astonish” mode basically, and then the contemporary, sort of flash-forward, is Scott Lang’s story, and how he comes to acquire the suit, how he crosses paths with Henry Pym, and then, in an interesting sort of Machiavellian way, teams up with him.”
ANT-MAN estrenará el 31 de julio del 2015.
