Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man Would’ve Made Scott Lang an ‘Actual Criminal’

After over nine years since exited from Marvel Studios’ first movie, the British filmmaker has revealed some new interesting details about his original vision for the Paul Rudd-led movie. On Instagram, Wright responded to a fan’s question about the difference between his version of Ant-Man and Peyton Reed’s 2015 movie.
The Shaun of the Dead filmmaker described his original screenplay as a “crime heist movie,” which would have featured Scott Lang as an “actual criminal.” Wright previously intended to show Scott’s transformation into becoming a good guy and hero.
“Having signed an NDA when I left, there’s not a lot I can say,” Wright wrote. “I guess the biggest (pun intended) differences in our screenplay was it was self-contained and didn’t have cameos from other MCU characters (apart from an end tease) and it was much more of a crime heist movie, with interlocking robberies and heists throughout, a little like Donald Westlake’s The Hot Rock. I think the crucial difference too was that (like the original comics) Scott Lang was an actual criminal at the start of the film and not already a 100 percent good guy. We felt it was a more satisfying redemption arc if he went from criminal to hero. Lots more to say, but can’t for legal reasons!”
Following its theatrical release last February 17, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania earned a worldwide gross of over $470 million against a reported budget of $200 million. Its poor box office performance made the film one of Marvel Studios’ lowest-grossing movies to date.
Quantumania was directed by Reed from a screenplay written by Jeff Loveness. The film also starred Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne/Wasp, Michael Douglas as Hank Pym, Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne, Jonathan Majors as Kang the Conqueror, Kathryn Newton as Cassie Lang, Corey Stoll as Darren Cross / M.O.D.O.K., Bill Murray as Lord Krylar, Katy O’Brian as Jentorra, and William Jackson Harper as Quaz.
The film is currently available for streaming on Disney+.

Wonka may be an origin story populated with mostly original characters (other than the wannabe chocolatier himself, played by Timothée Chalamet, and Hugh Grant's crotchety Oompa Loompa), but the movie's villains take a healthy dose of inspiration from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory author Roald Dahl's work.

This gaming chair was already excellent value - but Black Friday just made it even cheaper
Gaming chairs have a tendency to cost an arm and a leg. That fact really makes things tricky if you're shopping online for Black Friday, because it's already hard enough to judge the quality and comfort of a seat by looking at pictures. When you look at prices, the stakes feel extremely high, because it's not like a pricey high-end chair is a mistake you'll be able to afford twice.
