Marvel Teases ‘Ant-Man’ with Preview Trailer

Seventeen-second preview teaser offers up dramatic shots but provides few clues to the film’s plot.

Cross Technological Enterprises head Darren Cross, played by Corey Stoll, in Marvel’s ‘Ant Man.’

Leading up to tomorrow’s debut of the first teaser trailer for Marvel’s Ant-Man feature, here is the “human-sized” preview for the teaser:

This “human-sized” preview teaser was preceded by an “ant-sized” teaser released on Friday:

The 17-second preview teaser offers up some dramatic shots from the superhero movie, but doesn’t provide many clues to the film’s plot. The shots will, presumably, have a little more context in the full trailer for the film, which debuts on Tuesday, January 6, during the premiere of Agent Carter on ABC.

Directed by Peyton Reed, Marvel's Ant-Man stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang, a petty criminal who acquires the ability to shrink in size but increase in strength and become a superhero known as Ant-Man. Michael Douglas co-stars as Hank Pym, the scientist who originally invented the Ant-Man technology and mentors Lang to take over from him.

Here’s the official synopsis:

The next evolution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe brings a founding member of The Avengers to the big screen for the first time with Marvel Studios' Ant-Man. Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, master thief Scott Lang must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, 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.

Ant-Man arrives in theaters July 17.
