NEWS FROM THE MOVIE ANT-MAN

Ant-Man - McKay added a giant action sequence to the script

That it has modified the script to Ant-Man signed by Edgar Wright, the filmmaker Adam McKay with the help of Paul Rudd? A giant action scene and.

Before Peyton Reed was confirmed as the new director of Ant-Man, after the release of Edgar Wright to creative differences with Marvel, for a short time Marvel had shifted his attention to Adam McKay. The filmmaker explained to Collider as Rudd got him involved in the project and why he turned down the offer to direct the film.

"[Rudd] called me when Edgar Wright has left the project and told me what was happening. I went and met with Marvel, and I was a bit 'dubious just because I'm a friend of Edgar and I did not know what was the story, and then when I heard what happened that Edgar was gone, and I have seen their materials , I thought, 'God, this is fantastic'. In the end I did not want to jump on board as a director, I had many other projects going on and I was too tight, but I thought, 'You know what, I can rewrite it, and I can do really good rewriting. "

When McKay will have reduced its commitments, I wonder if it considers the possibility of directing a film for Marvel. Surely the success of the changes on the script of Wright may have a bearing on this choice.

With the help of Rudd every day for two weeks, the filmmakers worked on the script, but what changes did he make?

"I really thought that we put some amazing things and we have built over the script by Edgar Wright who was already strong. We have only improved a few things. We've added new lines of action. I grew up with Marvel comics so that the geek in me was in heaven having been able to add a huge action sequence in the movie, I was so excited. So we did, we've added some great new [scenes] of action.
Much of what there is comes from what he did Edgar, there's a lot of dialogue and the characters are still there. We only gave shape to all that, we just tried to simplify, to make it clean, make it a bit 'bigger, a little' more aggressive, make it more fun in some places - we basically did a rewrite. Edgar had a script really good. But we did spree and it was so fun to write with Rudd. I left saying, 'Hey, you and I have to write a script together.' "

McKay parla di miglioramenti inizialmente e poi di una vera e propria riscrittura. Dovremmo aspettare di vedere il film per vedere se è riuscito davvero a irrobustire lo script. Quella gigantesca scena d’azione potrebbe implicare che vedremo Ant-man nella versione di Giant-Man?

Ant-Man will be released on July 17, 2015 and will kick off the so-called Phase 3 Marvel movie universe. The film directed by Peyton Reed (Bring It On, The Break-Up, Yes Man), has cast actors Paul Rudd (Scott Lang) and Michael Douglas (Hank Pym), then Corey Stoll who will play Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket and Evangeline Lilly will star in the role of Hope Van Dyne, the daughter of Hank Pym.
