Veteran actor Wood Harris and VH1 reality-star and rapper, T.I. have joined the Super Hero franchise, Ant-Man. The film, which is based on the 1962 Marvel comic character, features an all-star cast including Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly, and Corey Stoll.
Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang (Rudd) must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Douglas), protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.
