At the rate Marvel is going, all of its comic book characters will have their own movie, maybe two.
“Ant-Man” is the latest to join the studio’s movie superhero ranks. Marvel just unveiled the trailer this week.
The character is little-known outside of hardcore fans, much like last summer’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” franchise, which turned out to be a big hit.
Playing Ant-Man is Paul Rudd, an actor largely known for his comedic chops.
And a keen sense of humor might be just what’s needed for this superhero, who becomes teeny tiny, but powerful, in his pursuit of justice.
“Ant-Man” hits theaters on July 17.
