Peyton Reed has been roped by Marvel to direct 'Ant-Man' after Edgar Wright abruptly left the project.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, 'Anchorman' helmer Adam McKay will work on the script of the movie.
The film will star Paul Rudd in the lead role, along with Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Pena, Corey Stoll and Patrick Wilson.
Sources said that the single biggest thing Marvel was looking for was someone who could work with the talent already assembled.
