Marvel's Ant-Man may not be the biggest risk the studio has taken (these guys put out a movie about a sentient tree and talking raccoon that was an international hit) but it's certainly up there.

The classic superhero with a suit that allows him to shrink in size and grow in strength who allies himself with ants (seriously) is an unconventional choice for the big screen treatment, but by the looks of it a more comedic approach suitable for the material is in store, a la the aforementioned Guardians of the Galaxy. An action set-piece taking place on a toy train track featured in the trailer looks like a standout moment.

Featuring Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas and Evangeline Lily, this oddball offering hits screens on July 17!
