'Ant-Man' Adds Patrick Wilson in Mystery Role

There aren't many actors who can say they've played for both the Marvel and DC squads. The most recent was Ryan Reynolds, who didn't have much luck with either X-men Origins: Wolverine or Green Lantern. Patrick Wilson is the next one on that very short list, and hopefully things will work out better for him.

Wilson has joined the cast of Marvel's Ant-Man, bringing his vast experience on Warner Bros.' Watchmen right along with him. He joins Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Michael Pena, and possibly Evangeline Lily in Edgar Wright's film, the first to kick off Marvel's Phase Three. As for his role? It's being kept hidden for now, so feel free to start speculating. Personally, I'd love to see him as Simon Williams aka Wonder Man, but he wouldn't have any business being in this movie.
