Ant-Man is one of my most anticipated movies of 2015 not only because it will surely be another dazzling display from the Marvel universe, but also because I love and adore the work of its director Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, The World’s End, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World). Now it just gets better with the addition of its named hero.

Deadline is reporting that Marvel has named its Ant-Man hero, and he is to be played by Paul Rudd. Though he maybe new to super hero action, he’s no stranger to comedy and drama and I have no doubt that he will bring those talents to this project.

We’ll be sure and keep you posted on the latest for Ant-Man.
