Ant-Man (Earth-11584)

Ant-Man is a 2015 film in the Earth-11584 continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is the final film of Phase 2 of the MCU, as well as the 15th film overall. The film was directed by Peyton Reed, who replaced Edgar Wright early in the production due to creative differences between Marvel and he. Wright, however, does retain a screenwriting credit on the film. Starring Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas and Evangeline Lilly, the film is the first iteration of the Ant-Man character on the big screen. The film was a hit at the world wide box office, taking in nearly $520 million dollars.

Plot Summary
In 1988, Hank Pym storms into the conference room of the still under construction Triskellion, confronting SHIELD board members Peggy Carter, Howard Stark and Bill Foster. Angrily, Pym reveals his knowledge of them trying to replicate his technology, specifically the Pym Particle which allows him to shrink in size but retain all of his strength. He is especially mad at Foster, who had helped him develop the project in the first place. Despite a plea from Stark, Pym states unequivocally that the Pym Particle is a secret that will go to his grave. Howard remarks, after Pym resigns and leaves, that Hank Pym won't be a threat to SHIELD, unless they force the issue.
