With Marvel's "Phase 2" in full force -- including a sequel run for Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and Avengers -- it's easy to forget that Edgar Wright's Ant-Man is still waiting patiently on the sidelines, just itching to get made.
However, it now sounds like Captain America may have a hitch in his giddy up. According to Chris Evans, who was making the interview rounds at the Toronto International Film Festival this weekend, production for Captain America: The Winter Soldier is now scheduled to begin in March instead of the end of this year. This leaves a gap in Marvel's shooting schedule between Thor: The Dark World and Cap 2. As a result, it's possible that Ant-Man could fill that gap.
As Screen Rant points out, director Edgar Wright recently noted that he could begin shooting the film in London directly after Thor 2 wraps production. Additionally, Marvel heads Louis D'Esposito and Kevin Feige have hinted that Ant-Man could hit theaters as soon as 2014, which means the studio could be lined up for three major releases in one year.
Should Ant-Man nab the production slot, fans can expect to see casting announcements in the very near future.
As it stands, Iron Man 3 is scheduled to hit theaters on May 3, 2013; Thor: The Dark World on November 3, 2013; Captain America: The Winter Soldier on April 14, 2014; Guardians of the Galaxy on August 1, 2014; and The Avengers 2 on May 1, 2015.
