Adrien Brody Unsure if He's in the Running for Ant-Man or Not

Posted 10.11.10 by BrentJS

Weeks before the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con, dozens of rumors began circulating about which actors would be cast in which superhero roles. Would Edward Norton be back as the Hulk? (No, that went to Mark Ruffalo). Is Jeremy Renner in talks to play Hawkeye in The Avengers? (Yes, that turned out to be true). Is Nathan Fillion up for the title role in Edgar Wright's Ant-Man adaptation? (No, he's too busy and would rather play The Greatest American Hero).

Another rumor about the Ant-Man movie that was circulating at that time had Adrien Brody's reps pursuing the role of Ant-Man for him, but there was never anything more heard about it until now. During an interview with ScreenRant at this past weekend's New York Comic Con, Brody was asked whether his reps were still going after the role and he seemed surprisingly in the dark about the matter.

I haven’t been involved in any of those discussions—I have mentioned it to my reps who have been kind of covert about their response as well, which is very strange to me. I said, 'Is there any validity to this, what is this?' and they said, 'Well…it’s too early to say.' It was very strange and I kind of dropped it at that… Not everything that is bandied around the Internet is factual, but sometimes there are elements that do stem from truth that people who are in the middle of it aren’t aware of either. We’ll see.

Brody did add that he is "enthusiastic" about the movie and said that he would consider playing Ant-Man if he felt that the role would help him progress as an actor.

The key is to constantly push the boundaries and to find things that allow me to be creative and do things that, you know, I enjoy and grow from.

The latest update on the Ant-Man movie had Wright working on the script, with Marvel President of Production Kevin Feige estimating an "end of this year, early next year" start of pre-production. Though Ant-Man is a founding member of The Avengers, Wright has confirmed that Ant-Man will not be a part of The Avengers movie continuity.

Peter Parker(Tobey Maguire) and Mary Jane(Kirsten Dunst) finally tie the knot.The story takes a turn focusing mainly on Dr.Curt Conners who,wants to grow back the hand he lost before in an accident long ago.By using the genetics of a lizard he soon grows back the hand only for it to turn scaley.Unsatisfied with the result,he accidently knocks over a jar containing the leftover symbiote,that was left behind from the black spider man costume in part 3.To add insult to injury,Curt conners slowly becomes The Lizard.The symbiote slowly finds its way to a cell where a deadly psychopath is in.The same individual(Cletus Cassidy) had previously slaughtered 3 individuals before being captured.The symbiote soon has a new host and the rest is CARNAGE!!!!!!!

Plot:The story basically originates with how Hawkeye came to be with the exception that,Hawkeye was originally a criminal who after an assignment has him sweating bullets because he realizes his target is a beautiful woman(later becomes known as Mockingbird),he soon uses his talent for the good of mankind.Fight scenes include Hawkeye and Mockingbird teaming up against enemies plus,Hawkeye battling the Big Boss himself(The Rose)who's skilled in the art of swordplay and a strange twist to the battle features a part where The Rose knocks away each of Hawkeye's arrows using a Katana blade forcing Hawkeye to face his adversary in a an extreme way.Bonus feature shows how he ends up joining the Avengers.

Wolverine 2:Samaurai Showdown

This is how Wolverine 2:Samaurai Showdown should be:

Story:Wolverine and Gambit sort of stick side by side in this adventure which,takes the two to an unknown place on the other side of the globe.Gambit explains along the way that Logan should seek out a Sensai to help his skills to be more effective in combat.Soon,Wolverine is faced with learning a new skill,gaining a new ally and fighting new foes.

Although Sabretooth isn't in this movie nor does Gambit fight,it's still cool to know that Wolverine will face two mutants.One that can form swords with his hands(Silver Samaurai) and the other,can drain energy in the form of tentacles(Omega Red).Who Wolverine teams up with is a mystery in itself but the hero, later becomes a member of X-Force and has the power of fire.
