In a recent interview with\u00a0Entertainment Weekly<\/strong><\/a>, Michael Douglas revealed some new and\u00a0interesting details about his role in the upcoming\u00a0Ant-Man<\/em> film from Marvel.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As many fans had already speculated and suspected, Janet Van Dyne (hife wife in the comics) will indeed be in the movie, but will not be played by\u00a0Evangeline Lilly.<\/div>\n

\u00a0“My name is Dr. Henry Pym. I\u2019m an entomologist. I\u2019m also a physicist and I discovered in 1963, a way, a serum to reduce a human being to the size of ant maintaining the strength. Not only that, but I was able to find a way to communicate with the ants. But unfortunately during this process, a tragic personal accident happened with my wife, my daughter, Evangeline, Hope. So I\u2019ve had to pass my powers and strengths onto a mentor.”\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\n

This character he is referring to is of course Scott Lang being played by Paul Rudd.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n


\n“Because my partner, my partner, Corey over there, f\u2013ked me good. Darren Cross, my partner, my mentor, my nemesis, has taken my company and taken it in a different direction. I need help, I desperately need help. I need someone who\u2019s a master thief, someone with a brilliant mind, and somebody who can pull off a really great heist.” <\/strong>\n<\/div>\n
