'Ant-Man' May get Swatted in First Official Look at Yellowjacket


The only image we've seen of Corey Stoll as the Ant-Man villain Yellowjacket came in a promotional banner, and it was hardly the best representation of the character. He's definitely more menacing in the film itself, as evidenced by the first official look revealed by EW.

The photo shows Yellowjacket about to slug it out with Paul Rudd's Ant-Man, and it looks like the hero is at a definite size disadvantage. He's also severely out-gunned as director Peyton Reed says "Hank Pym's Ant-Man suit doesn't have a single weapon, whereas Yellowjacket is armed with plasma cannons."

So what does Ant-Man have to fight with besides an army of one-liners?

"Ant-Man is very fast when he's small. Also, when he shrinks, he increases his density, so he's got increased strength."

Well, there ya go. Big things do come in small packages.

Also starring Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly, Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña, Judy Greer, John Slattery, and T.I., Ant-Man opens July 17th.
