Yesterday, Disney announced that Marvel's Ant-Man will be hitting theaters on November 6, 2015. The film, which will be directed by Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World), was announced at the Marvel panel at San Diego Comic-Con, where a small amount of test footage was screened for fans in Hall H. Though Ant-Man is one of the founding Avengers in the comicverse, this will be the character's first introduction to the Marvel cinematic universe.
It was also announced that the third installment of the Iron Man saga (May 3, 2013) will be released in both 3-D and 2-D, as will Thor 2: The Dark World (November 8, 2013). The sequel to 2011's Asgardian adventure will also feature celebrated British actor and Doctor Who alum Christopher Eccleston as a new villain and will see former Chuck star Zachary Levi in the role of Fandral. Levi will be replacing original Fandral Josh Dallas, who is now a series regular on ABC's Once Upon a Time.

Marvel announced at last weekend's New York Comic Con that Clark Gregg's Phil Coulson will be joining the cast of the upcoming S.H.I.E.L.D. television show. Coulson, whose untimely demise at the hands of the villainous Loki has been the subject of much debate, was first introduced in 2008's Iron Man and quickly became a fan favorite. It is unclear how Coulson survived (or if he survived - even legitimate death is rarely lasting in the comic book world, unless your last name happens to be Parker or Stacy and your first name rhymes with "pen"), with rumors ranging from resurrection to fakeout to Vision, but overall the announcement has been met with a resounding cry of, "Coulson Lives!"
