The Villains of Ant-Man Thread

[chamber-music]

Perhaps I didn't make my self clear or confused you. Egghead doesn't actually have to have a egg shaped head in the film just a regular shaped bald head

[Dark Raven]

And as I mentioned before, some men in real life do have a slightly egg-shaped head anyway when bald. It's obviously not as pronounced as Elihas Starr, but it can look a little pointier on top.

I've seen men also with enlarged craniums in real life. Not quite as extreme as the Leader, but still noticeable enough. Of course, they do look like freaks, but they do exist.

[cherokeesam]

Regardless, Egghead is a terrible choice. You either make him a goofy-looking Saturday morning cartoon freak, or you just make him a run-of-the-mill bald-headed genius. Nothing particularly cinematic about that. At least Whirlwind gives you an interesting and powerful supervillain with lots of vfx opportunities.

Egghead would only be like Armin Zola. He'd be behind things but you'd have Whirlwind and others as the physical threat.

i think A.I.M should be the villans. and Elias Star should be part of that organization. they could also keep part of the continuity created for Ant-Man Season One; with Elias killing Pym's wife accidentally (intending to kill Pym himself). i also think Simon Pegg has the perfect head for it. he can do cerebral but twisted.

Shohreh Aghdashloo for Monica Rappaccini (A.I.M's current scientist supreme and former member of the Black Orchestra terrorist cell)

and
John Noble for George Tarleton (another A.I.M agent jockeying for top position, in the flick - soon to become M.O.D.O.K)

Clearly the one and only choice for villain is The Porcupine...

[chamber-music]

Porcupine wouldn't be a bad idea for a henchman.

They could either have it be a mutated human the Billy Bates or Quill



or they could go for army scientist Gentry inspired Spiked Armor covered with quill-like projections for defense and able to shoot its quills, or gases, flames, chemicals, paralysis-inducing pellets, or weapons from quill-like tubes, at an opponents.

Something like the Destroyer or Iron Man 3 destroyer inspired suit but with spikes all over instead of just selected places.

Adequatron?

Advanced Idea Mechanics (George Tarleton, Monica Rapaccini, and Elias Starr as the ruling council) and the Quintronic-Man.

Oh Yeah

How come there haven't been any casting updates if filming starts soon?

[chamber-music]

Pre-production doesn't officially start until next month. Once pre-production starts we might start hearing about castings.

[chamber-music]

Whirlwind is rather entertaining in Infinity Heist.

[ericadawn16]

Hehe, and then Porcupine ends up being Agent Ward from the tv show.

Who was the villain in To Steal an Antman?

Darren Agonistes Cross a business man who had a heart condition so was fitted with a experimental pacemaker that turned him into a hulk like villain (super-strength, super-healing, Super-Speed, ect) but burned out his heart which led to him being reliant regular on heart transplants.

Darren Agonistes Cross cousin is Hawkeye villain Crossfire (William Cross).

[metaphysician]

Hmm. Given the choice between the two, I think some variation on Crossfire would be better. A brick is a brick, we have plenty. However, a hero who's power is to sneak and shrink, versus a villain who's power is to spot and precisely hit? Seems like a good combo.

[chamber-music]

I think Matt Dillion would make a good Crossfire.

It was funny and a bit annoying in the comics that Darren Cross kept saying "Dear Fellow" like Jay Gatsby saying "Old Sport" lots of times.

[Ant-manic]

my choice for Crossfire is still William Fichtner. and he's be a former C.I.A operative-turned-freelance subversive agent (like in the comic book). Cross Technological Enterprises would be a dummy corporation/a front for Advanced Idea Mechanics. Crossfire would be set up as some kind of executive of the office.

i would eliminate Darren Agonistes Cross; maybe pseudo replace him with George Tarleton (john noble).
