Smart marketing or an act of desperation?
Marvel Studios is getting their marketing machine fully in gear for next months release of Ant-Man and ahead of it they’ve brought out three new posters that puts the pint sized hero up against some of the bigger boys of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in fun ways. Hopefully this is just the first wave of these as there’s a lot of fun to be had with the other Avengers as well, especially considering the characters actual connections in the comics world to so many of them.
Directed by Peyton Reed, the film lands on July 17th, 2015. It stars Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Michael Peña, Patrick Wilson, Evangeline Lilly, and Corey Stoll.
Updated: Added a new international poster as well.
Plot concept: Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.
