While actress Evangeline Lilly won't say if she is or isn't in Marvel's Ant-Man, actor Corey Stoll is on the record as being over the moon not only by the Edgar Wright script, but also the revised on done after Wright's departure.

Speaking with Collider, Stoll confirmed that Wright had cast him in the superhero film, and added that he has seen both versions of the script and is excited about both of them.

"I'm absolutely thrilled! Reading the script, and the script that Edgar wrote, and the script that there is now, it's insane that this movie hasn't been made before," Stoll said. "Obviously, you need the technology because it needs to look great. But the whole idea of the changing of scale and the experiential effect of size changing is just so cool. You read these scenes on the page, and I just got giddy. I think it's gonna be so much fun."

Stoll added that he feels like Ant-Man could help to bring a breath of fresh air to the superhero genre that has been dominating Hollywood recently.

"You can get a little fatigued with superheroes because everybody is just punching everybody, or shooting everybody with ray beams," Stoll said. "This is a completely different kinetic experience in the theater. Shrinking and growing back, there's just so much material there to root it in. I think it's gonna be great."

It is good to hear praise on the second version of the script that has gone through re-writes by studio writers and Anchorman writer/director Adam McKay since the departure of original creators Wright and Joe Cornish.

Ant-Man also stars Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, and Patrick Wilson. It is directed by Peyton Reed and hits theaters on June 17, 2015.
