Re: Ant-Man (2015, Wright) S: Rudd, Douglas
From comingsoon.net;
Evangeline Lilly is in talks to join the cast of Marvel Studios' Ant-Man, Variety reports. The "LOST" and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug star is said to be up for a leading role in the July 17, 2015 release.
Although Lilly's potential role is still a mystery, the trade suggest that she might either be playing a love interest to Paul Rudd's Scott Lang, the daughter of Michael Douglas' Hank Pym, or both. There is the possibility, too, that the role in question is that of Janet Van Dyne who, in the comics, was a romantic interest to Pym and the alter-ego of the winsome Wasp.
Set to begin production shortly in Georgia, Ant-Man will be directed by Edgar Wright, who co-wrote the script with Joe Cornish (Attack the Block).
The film, which is supposed to launch "Phase Three" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, will follow Avengers: Age of Ultron's May 1, 2015 release.

OoOooOOoooO. I was all about Rashida getting the part. But I'm definitely in for Freckles.

Either Lily or Jones was who I was hoping would have been cast as Lois Lane all along.
But now I'm glad that never came to pass, because the character is clearly going to be marginalized in what is turning out to be JLA-lite, non Superman-centric sequels.
Whoever the character is here (and I'm hoping it's Wasp with the silver/bronze age Pym/Janet relationship carried over here in all but name, and just a few expositional details) I'll be happy to see Lily getting it.
Marvel absolutely gets the concept of counter-programing. No matter how good/great the movies are in between, Ant-man is still likely to seem like a breath of fresh air- instead of more of the same. And that brings a level of excitement all by itself.
A concept DC can't seem to grasp

What's with Rashida Jones being pimped for every comic book role? First Lois Lane, now this? Lot of "Community" fans on this forum or something?

She's witty, cute, and has good chemistry with Rudd?
Talking about her, I just saw that idiot brother film. Holy shit. She's a super cute lesbian too.

I thought he was great as the Tick, interesting that he'll be in a movie for another insect-based superhero.
