New promotional art for Marvel's Ant-Man movie gives us our first look at Yellowjacket.
Any minute now (well, probably not any minute, but soon), we're going to get our first Ant-Man trailer. And when it happens, expect all kinds of the usual speculation to ensue. But for as public as the Ant-Man movie has been, and as visible as its stuggles have become, it's easy to forget that we haven't really seen very much of this movie, nor do we know much about the villain.
This latest piece of promo art (which surfaced on UK licensing firm Aykroyd's website, but comes to us via Major Spoilers) is the first look at Ant-Man baddie, Yellowjacket. Seeing both Ant-Man and Yellowjacket in costume in promo art like this definitely make the movie look like a fairly marketable, toy-friendly affair, something that we've often wondered about when discussing a movie about one of Marvel's lesser known properties like this one.

And here's the official synopsis:
Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang (Rudd) must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Douglas), 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 is directed by Peyton Reed. It stars Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly, and Corey Stoll as Yellowjacket. It opens on July 15th.
