So there has been a lot of talk about the Ant-Man movie project over the last few months, between the epic casting announcements a while back (Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Pena, Patrick Wilson) and the revolving list of directors (first Edgar Wright, then Adam McKay, and now finally Peyton Reed) attached to the film. But it is moving full speed ahead now, and is scheduled for a July 17th, 2015 release. With only a year of promotion ahead, and the 2014 SDCC about to kick off, we are sure to get a bunch of 'Ant-Man' information, footage, and news in the next few days. Shit, even Michael Douglas is set to appear at the Marvel panels this weekend, and Liberace don't have to do promos if he don't want to! But, the first news (and great news at that) has to be the beautiful first 'official' poster for the film. It features typical corniness like floating heads in the background and the like... but, it also has an amazing shot of Ant-Man in all his helmeted glory warping from mini to large as he flips in one classic shot. It also features a full suited Ant-Man atop a flying insect... yup, this is what we, or at least I, have been hoping for. It will be a key part in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 3, and alongside 'Avengers 2: Age of Ultron' next summer, we should get some great new characters to add to the mix we already have (Pym & Lang Ant-Men, Evangeline Lilly might be Wasp, Scarlett Witch, Quciksilver, Ultron, etc). Enjoy this first official piece of movie merch after the jump, and expect a lot more to come in the next few days....
