Edgar Wright has released an Ant-Man-themed teaser image via Twitter, sparking rumours that an official announcement is imminent.

The Marvel Comics superhero is widely tipped to be next in line for his own movie, and Wright has been linked with the adaptation for some time.

Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios, previously revealed that an Ant-Man movie is "as close as it's ever been" to happening, though it is yet to receive the green light.

Marvel's latest blockbuster The Avengers is breaking box office records around the world. Ant-Man was a founder member of the titular superhero team, but failed to make the roster for the film.

Feige recently addressed the character's exclusion from the film, explaining that he might have made the cut if an Ant-Man solo film had been released in the run up the Joss Whedon-helmed team-up project.

Ant-Man is expected to be announced by Marvel later this year.

The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Edgar Wright has finished production on Ant-Man. Unfortunately, we're not talking about the film itself. Instead, the director has not only been hard at work perfecting his and Joe Cornish's script, but he's also spent a week shooting a reel of footage which will be used to test out the look of the film and how the character's powers will be portrayed on the big screen. This is usually the case for certain films, and those of you who checked out 300's special features may remember Zack Snyder doing something very similar for that comic book adaptation. This may also explain why comic book stores in London have been finding themselves bombarded with requests for old Ant-Man back-issues.

Hm... I'm really on the fence here. Are we talking live action? I just don't know that Ant Man is going to make for a good movie...

it certainly will be live action but yeah its going to be lame unless his powers come across well on screen

      Remarkably based article from Garter - apparently there IS someone working there that actually understands mainframe systems.

    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      Calling it TDS doesn’t answer the question: why did this site skip prior UFC games but review this one, at this exact political moment?

      Its the timing of its release, mixed with the timing of the review mixed with the timing of the event, when this site never reviewed previous iterations of this game that I could find.
    • Instagram just got "a long-requested feature"

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Instagram just got "a long-requested feature" by Hamid Ganji Instagram has finally added a new feature that has been "long-requested" and it allows users to write an individual caption for each image or video in a carousel. The feature will start rolling out this week, and it’ll be available to all users. Previously, Instagram only allowed a single caption for all regular posts and carousels. This made it harder for content creators to describe every scene in a carousel and often forced them to write longer captions. However, with this new feature, every slide in a carousel can have its own caption, which can be viewed by swiping left or right. To use the feature, when writing a caption for your post, select “Multiple captions” from the dropdown menu in the caption area. You can then write unique captions for each slide. By swiping through the carousel and selecting individual slides, a dedicated space for writing captions will appear. Instagram says the feature will help audiences get the right context at the right moment. The ability to assign a unique caption to each slide in a carousel could be particularly useful for content creators and brands on the platform. Instagram says the feature will begin rolling out this week. The new feature appears to have been well received by Instagram users, many of whom have been requesting it for a long time. However, users are now asking for additional features, such as the ability to add new slides to a carousel after it has been published. Instagram has been introducing several useful features lately, but users who want access to additional tools and perks can subscribe to the platform’s Instagram Plus offering. Priced at $3.99 per month, Instagram Plus includes exclusive features such as 48-hour Stories, more detailed post analytics, and the ability to tailor posts or Stories to specific audiences. The subscription includes 11 new features in total.
