It will prob be an amalgam of previous outfits. The helmut could make it or break it. It has to looks cool!

Whatever they do with the headwear, I would guess it would fall off all the time anyway. those masks and helmets just don't stay on in superhero movies these days. Except for Batman.

I think something close to that middle pic would look best. That said, I wonder whether they will resist the urge to go "armor" versus "suit." I tend to think it should have a composition somewhat more substantial than the SHIELD elite outfits, but not much moreso.

Yeah I agree with the third pic. From what I've heard of the description of the test footage it was red and black.

I don't think the third pic would work, because the helmet takes "ant-man" way too literally. He shouldn't look like he's wearing a literal ant head.

I think they will go with a more black-less red design, but definetly inspired in the original comic, with that symbol of the center.

I think they could use the Ultimate version for the red parts of his costume. They will probably add some silvery armor like electronic parts.

I want the classic helmet at least. That also shows his face more and gives him more humanity. The other ones just cover up his face too much, which you would think would be the opposite of what the filmmakers want to do. The classic helmet seems the most actor friendly and would allow you to see his expressions.

I'd prefer this one out of all the pics so far, though I'd like to see it look a bit more 'heroic'. It could do with a few touch ups for live action.

Also, I find the Ultimates design the most boring. I think Ant-man should look more like a superhero than a guy in a jumpsuit and goggles.

Just quickly added the different head in. I don't see them using the proper classic helmet - it just wouldn't look great in Live Action, I don't think. Something like this could, however.

That's not bad, and would be close enough I guess. I'm not sure i like the more black and less red colour scheme of his costume though. I would prefer the colours to be reversed, with the ant symbol on his chest.

I think a cross between that and the Ultimate would work well. Maybe they could use the classic helmet really early on, like have it be a prototype which he later is able to make less clunky.

I think that the O'Grady Thunderbolts-era, with some slight modifying, would work the best on screen. I'm looking at movie costumes like the ones in Prometheus where they have more of a softer body suit covered in some armored, protective elements is the way to go. Oh, and the helmet should cover the whole head to give more of an ant-like insect look, but maybe with a retractable mouth area covering, so that he can have the classic helmet look at times.

i think they'll go with something closer to the ultimate version, less flashy...
i mean, the concept of a man who can control ants and become very small or vey big is cheezy enough, so the costume must be something simple and not too flashy

Ultimate Hank sucks! They raped his personality on that one. The costume isn't so horrible I guess, I just hate the way they portrayed him. With no Hawkeye around, they made Hank the wise-ass, and pushed it even further by making him an A-hole, that seemed nothing like the Hank we know and love.

He was a form of a-hole known as 'sociopath'. Captain America became one of my top characters when he beat the eff out of the dude.

This is my idea of what the movie costume could look like. Its a mix between the 616 Ant Man costume, with the red, black, and silver helmet, and the Ultimate version. Like the Captain America or the Hawkeye costume, Ant Man uses parts from the Ultimate while trying to stay true to the 616 version. His helmet I made a little smaller and less silly looking (I hope). I also thought that the actor might want more face time so his eyes are visible more than either the 616 or the Ultimate version. His mouthpiece also separates like a pilot's. So that he can also have more of his face visible at times. Maybe it can lower down and rest on his chest like when Cable would wear Cyclops' visor or it could be raised above his head. Or simply unhook at the sides like a pilots. I also think he would wear goggles with almost a night vision look to them. I also maybe colored him too brightly. Maybe the red coloring should look more like the Ultimate version. And the blackish, brownish, grayish color should look darker maybe. His helmet is light and silver like Ant Man's in the 616. It would also look similar to the Atom helmet I posted here. And without the mouthpeice it would look similar to Iron Man's when his faceplate isn't down yet. I tried to make a costume that merged the Ultimate and the 616, and make it look good for the real world while also making it look like the comic book, and at the same time a costume that would match the others and look good next to the Avengers when they are in a group shot.

I thought that with an actor under the helmet and how most Marvel heroes end up without their mask or helmet, it might be a good idea to show as much of his face as possible while the helmet is on. Might get them to keep the helmet on more.
That is also why I thought the mouthpiece could be disconnected like a pilot's. So that he will still have his helmet on most of the way while still showing the actor's face.
I too think he would end up wearing goggles, for no other reason than they scream spy to me for some reason. But also because of what Pym is doing as Ant Man I see him needing goggles. I see the goggles looking like bug eyes. Maybe some fly eyes like the goggles he had in Avengers Forever:

This goes along with my ideas. I can see the helmet opening up like
this so the actor's face would be more visible. And I can see the suit
being similar to this, with different sections to it with different materials
and more Ultimate like.

Love this because I don't really like Hanks original 616 outfit. The helmet is just clunky and silly if you ask me.

Black should be the dominating color with red accents, like here.

Maybe they can make his helmet sort of resemble Ultrons head. With hanks face where Ultron has all that dark matter/glowy stuf.

But anyway, colorscheme-wise they should definitely go with something like this.

I've always really enjoyed Ant-man's helmet, and I think taking away the antennae would take away a part of what makes Ant-man well... Ant-man. What I think would be cool is if the antennae only came out when he shrunk down (think when Wasp grows her wings) and that is what sent the brain wave signals to the ants he commands. What do you guys think? As for the rest of the helmet I think it should look vaguely like a gas mask.

I might be jumping the gun, but I'm interested in seeing how they'll develop the costume if the series goes on and we end up with Giant Man, Yellow Jacket, etc.

As for the Ant-Man costume itself, I think we can almost guarantee that a mask/helmet won't make much of an appearance. I'm thinking goggles will be the go.

They will need to explain how he can talk to ants and the quickest way to do that would be that he invented a helmet that can do that for him. So I think we will get the helmet, but how much he wears it is another question.

I hope they do what Iron man did which is have the original mark one Iron Man armor then progress to the modern version. So Ant-Man starts out with his classic dome prototype helmet then quickly adapts it to to a more modern version.

Ahh, that's true - unless they somehow decide to integrate the ant-talking (I'll admit right now I'm probably the least knowledgeable person about Pym ever, despite loving the few things I've read with him.) into goggles or a much smaller head-piece of some sort.

Thinking about it more the way Pym works is through Pym particles which are submitted through a gas. What if they meant more with a gas mask idea?

I'd go with the third one; it looks more presentable. Unless if they want to go Ultimates style;

Hope they never go with that design; it's just a brown Fox X-men movie costume with a cowl and goggles.

The Ultimate version will have at least some influence over the costume in the movies. Just like the ultimate design influenced Captain America and Hawkeye's costume.

Here is a slightly revised version of my idea for Ant Man.
This is my idea of what the movie costume could look like. Its a mix between the 616 Ant Man costume, with the red, black, and silver helmet, and the Ultimate version. Like the Captain America or the Hawkeye costume, Ant Man uses parts from the Ultimate while trying to stay true to the 616 version. His helmet I made a little smaller and less silly looking (I hope). I also thought that the actor might want more face time so his eyes are visible more than either the 616 or the Ultimate version. His mouthpiece also separates like a pilot's. So that he can also have more of his face visible at times. Maybe it can lower down and rest on his chest like when Cable would wear Cyclops' visor or it could be raised above his head. Or simply unhook at the sides like a pilots. I also think he would wear goggles with almost a night vision look to them. I also maybe colored him too brightly. Maybe the red coloring should look more like the Ultimate version. And the blackish, brownish, grayish color should look darker maybe. His helmet is light and silver like Ant Man's in the 616. It would also look similar to the Atom helmet I posted here. And without the mouthpeice it would look similar to Iron Man's when his faceplate isn't down yet. I tried to make a costume that merged the Ultimate and the 616, and make it look good for the real world while also making it look like the comic book, and at the same time a costume that would match the others and look good next to the Avengers when they are in a group shot.

I might be jumping the gun, but I'm interested in seeing how they'll develop the costume if the series goes on and we end up with Giant Man, Yellow Jacket, etc.

As for the Ant-Man costume itself, I think we can almost guarantee that a mask/helmet won't make much of an appearance. I'm thinking goggles will be the go.

It's already been confirmed that the costume includes a helmet that covers his face... That is, if they go with the costume that they used in the test footage, which the audience responded well to.

The darker colors are also more appropriate here, if the Ant-Man gear set was intended at some point or other for stealth and infiltration. No point being an inch tall if everyone sees you because you are bright fire engine red, after all.

Theyre going to want to see the actors face. Only Iron Man has his face covered and they got around that by using the inhelmet view.

I really like the helmet design on the bottom right.

I like the bottom right helmet, but in my opinion, Ant-Man's antennae should be curving backward just above his head like this:

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kTr3AURgy9Y/UOllbOUWn3I/AAAAAAAAAyE/QXdIZ_6NDS8/s1600/antman.jpg

I think the only thing is the actor getting face time. Cap looses his mask, Iron Man can show his face in that monitor thingy, and Thor lost his helmet. So Ant Man would probably need part of this version of the helmet clear like a motorcycle helmet.
http://img2.targetimg2.com/wcsstore/TargetSAS//img/p/10/80/10807927.jpg

So I think it could be something like this:
http://th09.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2013/069/f/e/ant_man_helmet_by_artistneedham-d5xnd8o.jpg

(I modified the artist's design and made the helmet see through and added the under head.)
That way the actor gets more face time and we still get the oh so crucial Ant Man helmet.

Yeah, I found it online (google images "Ant Man Helmet") and found this. I added the changes like the see through helmet. I think that would give the actor enough face time while still giving the character the helmet he needs.
Ant Man cannot suddenly loose his helmet halfway (or less like Thor) though the movie and never get it back. His helmet is part of his power like Iron Man (and I think it would be bad to re-use the Iron man face time trick)

they have done it so much in Iron Man:

http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3ccsdH0QR1qfghqk.gif

And I would imagine that the yellow lens part of the helmet would be sort of holographic/energy
instead of glass or plastic, meaning that when he turns it off it vanishes, and we have a clear shot
of his face and then he can turn it back on and it returns and we still see his face.

Judging from the test footage it looks like the suit will be an amalgamation of all the past Ant-Man suits. The body of the suit appears to be most similar to Eric O'Grady's suit, while the color scheme and design is most similar to Scott Lang's suit. The helmet is basically Hank Pym's covering his entire face in a manner similar to O'Grady's, while the ant communicator looks like a gas mask like Scott Lang's.

It's pretty ingenious actually. Make the coolest Ant-Man suit by combining the best parts of each armor.

Watching the test footage I realized, the costume was designed to hide the actor's face
because they hadn't picked one yet. Once they do they will probably redesign it for facetime.

Facetime:

They always seem to try to give the actor some facetime. I don't mean that the actors always demand it.
Maybe some do, maybe some don't. But in Spider-Man they said they always wanted to bring it back to Peter.
Make sure the audience was connected to him or something, so he would loose his mask, remove it, etc.
Thor lost his helmet (with the wings) in Thor 1 and has yet to get it back in Avengers or from what I have seen of Thor 2.
For Stark they worked out that while in the suit we can see his face under his helmet. Its a really nice way to
show his face without always having Stark remove his helmet (although he did at the end of Iron Man 1).
In Avengers 1, and Captain America 1, Captain America lost or removed his helmet.
Hawkeye never has a mask like he did in the comics and Black Widow never even had one in the comics.

I just mean I wont be surprised if the Ant Man helmet is designed for seeing more of the actors face.
