No Hank Pym, changing the origin, so Ultron is going to be created by Stark?

From Wikipedia:

"On October 15, 2012, Marvel and Disney announced that Edgar Wright's Ant-Man would be released in theaters on November 6, 2015, after the release of The Avengers: Age of Ultron.[19] In January 2013, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed that Ant-Man will start "Phase Three" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[20] On July 11, 2013, Wright revealed to Digital Spy while talking about this new film The World's End that the film's script is finished. [21]"

I guess Hank will be in Age of Ultron?

edit: Ah, just watched the video and no Hank Pym apparently...

[The Afronaut]

Havent watched the vid yet, will soon. ...but no Hank Pym is and makes me

Watched...I get it. Still disappointed about Pym, but I get it.

Also, I now have faith that whatever becomes of Thor2 and GotG (hopefully both will be decent at least) that Avengers 2 will reset the universe on a good track if need be.

Did I just read correctly that Paul Rudd is playing Ant Man?!

[The Afronaut]

Looks pretty official.

Marvel Studios has proven it’s a force to be reckoned with, changing the game with its shared universe model, making a multi-million brand out of superhero movies, and breakout stars out of more than a few actors. But riskier waters lie ahead for the studio, with comic book properties that virtually no one outside of the fanboy community knows about (Guardians of the Galaxy) or cares about (Ant-Man).

But will the skepticism about Ant-Man change – now that we know that charm-king actor Paul Rudd is playing him?

The Wrap dropped the exclusive announcement of Rudd “being in talks” with Marvel Studios, but with months of speculation that Rudd was in competition for the role against Joseph Gordon-Levitt (who’s since moved on to Sandman) – as well as the noted (and observable) evidence of Rudd already looking more fit for the role, it’s a pretty safe bet that the actor WILL be signing on the dotted line to play Hank Pym.

Nice. Rudd as Pym and JGL as Scott Lang?

[Gregg Popabitch]

Michael Douglas will be Hank Pym.

[The Afronaut]

Michael Douglas will be Hank Pym.

Kinda interested in where direction they are going with this story now.



Also, I guess this is as good a place as any to discuss this:

Marvel apparently has a deal with Netflix to produce four 13 eps shows. The shows will focus on the following characters, Daredevil, Iron Fist, Luke Cage and Jessica Jones.

These four shows will primarily take place in "Hell Kitchen" NY and more than likely include crossovers, culminating in a Defenders mini series.

I am too amped about this. If done right, with a darker edge than Agents of SHIELD this could really be fantastic.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT HOT POWER PACK JAWN.

[Combo7]

Coolness. Take the ABC out of Marvel because AoS was a little lame.

If they take inspiration from the Brubake/Fraction/Bendis take on all of these characters then that shit will be great.

Paul Beattany also the voice of J.A.R.V.I.S. In the Iron Man joints.

True overall. It has improved a bit over the last few episodes though.

It looks good, and I like James Spader, but he was an awful choice to do mo-cap shit for Ultron in this.

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

i don't feel qualified to cast judgement on motion capture casting decisions

[Mindbender Futurama]

plot: Tony doesn't want to wear Iron Man suit a la the end of Iron Man 3, so he makes Ultron

then Ultron goes crazy cause humans are a disease that needs to be cured... WITH EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT GENOCIDE

sounds good. who needs Ant-man. Avengers: REASSEMBLE

[Prophecy]

I'm guessing this will be a let down and won't even live up to the decent arc that it was in the comic.

[907]

i don't feel qualified to cast judgement on motion capture casting decisions

I'm not saying I am either, I just don't see the way he walks and body language and think "badass cyborg", is all.

Although they share the same name, apparently the MCU AoU has nothing in common with comic version.

[Cash Rulz]

The movies rarely do. No way to live up to the character development comics offer.
