So far, Marvel has been pretty quiet about their plans for the upcoming Ant-Man movie, directed by Edgar Wright. Now, Wright is starting to talk, and have gave some new details in his interview with Entertainment Tonight.

In regards to the tone of the film, here’s what he had to say:
Well, I think the Marvel movies are funny, you know? I think generally the Iron Man films and The Avengers is funny. They’re not ever in the comedy section, but they are funny and entertaining, so I think it’ll be something in a similar vein to that.”

On how he plans to raise Ant-Man to the same level of popularity as the other Marvel film heroes:

“I want to make him into a badass [laughs]. No, I always liked that comic and I always thought it would be an interesting thing to see in live-action. That’s why I [showed] that Comic-Con test that we did for Marvel, to show this fight scene like a proof of content, like this is what the action is going to look like. I think a lot of people who maybe don’t know the character sort of see that test and go, ‘Oh, right, I get it. It’s like an action film,’ so that’s the idea. I think people will be surprised by what kind of movie it is, and so in that respect it’s something that I know is going to stand out because it’s got a very different story and is a very different movie.”
