Ant-Man Reportedly Casts Pacific Rim's Clifton Collins, Jr.

In a tweet that also implied yesterday's Michael Pena news wasn't entirely solid yet, Latino Review's Mario-F. Robles claims Disney have already hired Pacific Rim's Clifton Collins, Jr. for a significant role in Marvel's Ant-Man. Robles claims that the actor is "the only other main actor signed" besides the film's two leads. Of course, take it with a grain of salt; the casting rumors are flying this week and while they've certainly been good for traffic, about half of them have already been denied and the only one that's definitely turned out to be true is the one that originated at Marvel (that of Michael Douglas as Hank Pym). Besides Pacific Rim, Collins has also appeared in Star Trek, The Blacklist with Avengers: Age of Ultron villain James Spader and Batman & Robin director Joel Schmacher's Tigerland with Daredevil star Colin Farrell.

Clifton Collins Jr (Pacific Rim) will be in Marvel's "Ant-Man." As of now, he's the only other main actor signed, aside from Rudd & Douglas. — Mario-F. Robles (@LatinoReviewMFR) January 15, 2014
