1st Full Look at Ant-Man - #Marvel's #AntMan Teaser

Image
The wait's over! Get your first full, official look at Marvel's " Ant-Man ," first seen during "Marvel's Agent Carter"! Watch now and see the movie in theaters July 17! You can watch the trailer below. What do you think? I personally wasn't sure about Marvel spotlighting characters like Ant-Man and Doctor Strange in a standalone movie. However with the success of the almost unknown (to non-comic readers) team that is The Guardians of the Galaxy, I think it might turn out pretty well. What I do see however is they are spotlighting these unknowns as a sort of transition into the next phase of Avengers movies starring Ant-Man, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, and maybe War Machine. Only time will tell.
