Marvel and Walt Disney have released a slew of new pics from its newest Super Hero franchise, \u201cAnt-Man,\u201d <\/strong>which brings one of Marvel comics\u2019 original founding members of The Avengers into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film will hit theaters on July 17, 2015.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Directed by Peyton Reed <\/strong>(\u201cBring it On,\u201d \u201cThe Break-Up\u201d) and stars Paul Rudd<\/strong> as Scott Lang aka Ant-Man, and Michael Douglas <\/strong>as his mentor Dr. Hank Pym and Evangeline Lilly<\/strong> as Hope Van Dyne, daughter of Hank Pym.<\/p>\n

The film also includes outstanding additional cast including Corey Stoll as Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket, Bobby Cannavale as Paxton, Michael Pe\u00f1a as Luis, Judy Greer as Maggie, Tip \u201cTi\u201d Harris as Dave, David Dastmalchian as Kurt, Wood Harris as Gale, Jordi Moll\u00e0 as Castillo.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Ant-Man<\/a>Based on the Marvel comic character first published in 1962, Marvel\u2019s \u201cAnt-Man\u201d continues the lineage of epic big-screen adventures chronicled in Marvel\u2019s \u201cIron Man,\u201d \u201cThe Incredible Hulk,\u201d \u201cIron Man 2,\u201d \u201cThor,\u201d \u201cCaptain America: The First Avenger,\u201d \u201cMarvel\u2019s The Avengers,\u201d \u201cIron Man 3,\u201d \u201cThor: The Dark World,\u201d \u201cCaptain America: The Winter Soldier,\u201d \u201cGuardians of the Galaxy\u201d and the upcoming Marvel\u2019s \u201cAvengers: Age of Ultron.\u201d<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

In the film, the man under the Yellowjacket suit is Corey Stoll\u2019s Darren Cross. In the comics, Yellowjacket was initially an alternate superhero identity for Hank Pym, the costume having made its first appearance in \u201cThe Avengers\u201d #59. Because of the severe mental stress he was under, Yellowjacket actually manifested itself as the darker side of Pym, leading to the character\u2019s infamous turn to spousal abuse. Later on, a criminal named Rita DeMara stole the suit and became at first a supervillain and, later on, a sort of antihero, eventually traveling to the 30th century and teaming up with a very different Guardian of the Galaxy team.<\/p>\n

\u201cHank Pym\u2019s Ant-Man suit doesn\u2019t have a single weapon,\u201d<\/em> director Peyton Reed tells EW<\/a>, \u201cwhereas Yellowjacket is armed with plasma cannons.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
