We’ve gotten glimpses ofCorey Stoll’s Yellowjacket villain fromAnt-Manina poster that debuted in Decemberandpromo art that arrived in February, but we have never seen an official image of the costume as it will be seen in the movie, until now.Entertainment Weeklyhas debuted a new photo as part of their summer movie preview, which gives us our best look at Yellowjacket yet, as he prepares to throw a punch at a diminutiveAnt-Man. You honestly have to squint and focus to see the tinyMarvelsuperhero, but trust us, he’s there.
As you may see in the photo below, Cross' Yellowjacket costume is armed with plasma cannons, which putsAnt-Manat quite a disadvantage, although, whenAnt-Manshrinks, his strength increases, according to directorPeyton Reed.
“Hank Pym’sAnt-Mansuit doesn’t have a single weapon, whereas Yellowjacket is armed with plasma cannons.Ant-Manis very fast when he’s small. Also, when he shrinks, he increases his density, so he’s got increased strength.”
Paul Ruddalso talked about how playing Scott Lang was a completely new experience for him, since he had to wear a motion capture suit.
“It was a new experience as far as the motion-capture-suit-ness of it. But none of it feels that different. Every part, I’m pretending to be somebody I’m not. It’s all just a big lie!”
Peyton Reedalso shot down some recent reports thatAnt-Manhas already went through reshoots. The director states that there will be some additional photography, but he chalked it up to “minor stuff.”
“I love turning on the computer in the morning and reading the things that I did the day before-that I didn’t do! We are going to do a little bit of additional photography, but we have not done any yet. It’s minor stuff.”
Take a look at Yellowjacket below, and let us know what you think of this villain’s look.Ant-Man, which co-starsMichael Douglas,Michael Pena,Evangeline Lilly,Judy Greer,David Dastmalchian,John Slattery,Neil HamburgerandBobby Cannavale, hits theaters July 17.
