While we’ve had some casting news with the Ant-Man feature from Marvel Studios with Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas having joined the production, there’s going to be a lot of other roles to fill in the Edgar Wright directed film that’s due out in the summer of 2015 since it starts production in April. We’re now hearing that Evangeline Lilly, last seen in the second installment of The Hobbit, is in early talks for the lead female role, which hasn’t been detailed in the slightest if it’s an original character or someone from the comics that could become another costumed hero. The general speculation at the moment is that she’d be playing the daughter of the Michael Douglas character, Hank Pym, who would end up involved with Paul Rudd’s character of Scott Lang.
