New writers and a new member of the cast have jumped on Marvel's Ant-Man since last we checked in.

After a shall we say, eventful spring, things have calmed down considerably on the Ant-Man front. The long-gestating, somewhat embattled Marvel movie lost a beloved director (Edgar Wright), gained a new one (Peyton Reed), is ready to roll any second now, and remains on target to make its July 17th, 2015 release date. In the meantime, plot details beyond a brief official summary are scarce, and really, other than Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) and Henry Pym (Michael Douglas) we don't even know who any of the other characters are.

Well, this latest bit of casting news (which snuck by us, but comes coutesy of Deadline) isn't going to change any of that. David Dastmalchian (who had a creepy but brief role in Prisoners) has joined Ant-Man in an unspecified role. That's...ummmm...about all there is to say about that. Maybe he's a villain. Your guess is as good as ours.

A little juicier is today's report from Latino Reviewthat Gabriel Ferrari and Andrew Barrer have come on board to do some revisions to the draft most recently revised by Adam McKay (who was announced at the same time new director Peyton Reed was). This probably isn't another indicator of things being desperately wrong with the project. Seriously. It's not.

Ant-Man is out in just over a year on July 17th. Surely we'll hear more about it in a few weeks at SDCC.

Wow, another 2 writers are making revisions? I hope this doens't end up in a situation where they are writing while filming. I'm steadily losing faith in this film and it's really disappointing.
