With the marketing drive behind Avengers: Age of Ultron reaching its almighty crescendo, Marvel Studios has debuted a new full-length trailer for a founding member of the superhero squadron: Ant-Man.
Arriving not long after our first official look at Corey Stoll’s malevolent villain, this latest clip heavily features Yellowjacket, who will serve as the film’s overarching big – and indeed minute – bad. There’s also much more footage of the movie’s inventive fight sequences, too, with Paul Rudd’s titular hero changing size on the fly as he engages with his fellow inspects and pummels any goon standing in his way. And though much digital ink has been spilled about the flick’s supposed risky tenets, it’s these stylistic tendencies that will ultimately set Ant-Man apart from its contemporaries.
Joining Stoll and Rudd for the adventure are Michael Douglas as brilliant scientist Hank Pym, along with Evangeline Lilly,...

Ahead of its trailer debut tonight during the premiere of Agent Carter, the first official poster for Marvel’s Ant-Man has been released. Once again, the marketing department is having fun with Ant-Man‘s size, as they’ve repeated the ploy used in the first “ant-sized” teaser trailer and given us a microscopic look at the titular hero.
After the success of Guardians of the Galaxy – which employed similarly clever jokes in its marketing campaign – it’s clear that Marvel has a tremendous amount of confidence when it comes to its lesser-known heroes, and is willing to take a few risks as far as marketing goes.
As I said earlier, the first actual look at the new film will arrive later tonight, so make sure to stay tuned to We Got This Covered, as we’ll have the trailer posted as soon as it goes live. In the meantime, let...
