Paul Rudd Confirmed for Ant-Man!

After intense speculation and rumours, it was announced today that Anchorman star Paul Rudd will indeed be playing the character 'Ant-Man' in Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. According to online reports, Rudd was in competition with Joseph Gordon-Levitt (The Dark Knight Rises, Brick) who lost out on the role having confirmed his intentions to produce and possibly star in the Warner Bros. DC Comics/Vertigo adaptation of The Sandman. Fans have been following the story for quite some time, and have enjoyed early concept footage and costume designs from Director Edgar Wright since his announcement and introduction to the project nearly three years ago. For more details on the project's journey, take a look at the previous blog discussing the Ant-Man character and the films early conception below.
