There’s some exciting news for Marvel fans today as Walt Disney Pictures has moved the release of Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man from November 6, 2015 to July 31, 2015, almost four months earlier.
The film, which is supposed to launch “Phase Three” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, will follow Avengers: Age of Ultron‘s May 1, 2015 release.
Production is gearing up for Ant-Man with Wright directing from a script that he has co-written a script with Joe Cornish (Attack the Block).
The new date has the film opening opposite 20th Century Fox’s family fantasy Peregrine’s Home for Peculiars and just two weeks after Warner Bros. releases Zack Snyder’s still-untitled Superman/Batman film.
