Synopsis: Biochemist Dr. Hank Pym uses his latest discovery, a group of subatomic particles, to create a size-altering formula. Though his first self-test goes awry, he develops an instrument that helps him communicate with and control insects.
Edgar Wright plans to direct an action-adventure film with comedic elements, insisting that Ant-Man would not be a spoof. Wright also plans to include both Henry Pym and Scott Lang as major characters, with Pym as Ant-Man in the 60's in Tales to Astonish style, and a flashforward to Lang as Ant-Man's successor in contemporary times.
In February 2007, Wright said that the project was in "a holding pattern" while the script was revised, with casting yet to begin. The director reported that he would have news for the film in a few months. He has been researching nanotechnology for the film.
I'm quite looking forward to this as a Marvel Comics fan ...But I'm actually quite surprised they went with this character particularly Henry Hank Pym (who really is Ant Man for me) but he had quite a different history than most Superheroes made into film that we see....for a start he doesn't stay Ant Man....he later becomes Giant Man, then Goliath (when he discovers new tecnologies to make himself big) and then changes to a Hero called Yellow Jacket where he can shrink anything down in size by touch and can literally carry jumbo Jets or massive rockets minaturised in his pockets. Pym is a bio and robotic genius but in the comics he also had serious mental issues which made him in the comic books a very complex and interesting character ...how they transfer this to a film is another question...should be good though.....

The characters of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash and Martian Manhunter comprise the League. Aquaman however may be left out Story elements from the screenplay have been adapted directly from the DC’s comic book series. The man wearing the Green Lantern ring in the film is John Stewart and not Hal Jordan (Earth’s first Green Lantern) or Kyle Rayner (who followed after Stewart’s run in the comic book continuity.) In the Justice League cartoon series John Stewart is the Green Lantern too. The Flash is the youngest member of the League and has a crush on Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman is portrayed as the member that acts as defacto humanitarian and face for the League. Unbeknownst to the League Batman has a piece of technology that he developed called the “Redeye”, a cool piece of hardware that he can use to spy unbeknownst on the other League members. . Want to find out what can cripple or kill each League member, their Achilles heel? It’s a snap with the Redeye. Batman files away the knowledge in case the day might ever come when he will need to use it to take down a member of the League that goes rogue or becomes a villain. The Redeye is paramount to the events that transpire in the movie. A villain (Don't know which yet) will gain control of the Redeye. Instead of serving as a means of protecting the planet’s populace from the threat of a superhuman out of control, this creation of Batman’s will come back to haunt him, threaten the lives of the League and the safety of everyone on the entire planet. During the course of the movie the day that Batman feared would come happens: a member of the League will, “go bad.”
