  • Marvel Comic Adaptations Updates
    By Garth FranklinSaturday July 22nd 2006 3:50pm
    Marvel Entertainment invited the directors of upcoming Marvel projects "Ant-Man", "The Incredible Hulk" and "Iron Man" to the San Diego Comic-Con where the trio spilled some details on their assorted projects.

    Edgar Wright confirmed he's still just in the very early stages of the first draft of the script for "Ant-Man", which will be serious in tone. Somehow he plans to use both Ant-Man versions Henry Pym and Scott Lang, and added there would be no Avengers involvement.

    "The Incredible Hulk" director Louis Leterrier confirmed the next film would follow the television show more in tone, describing the film as "Frankenstein meets Jekyll and Hyde with a little bit of Edward Scissorhands". Filming will start in April 2007.

    Finally, Jon Favreau popped up to talk "Iron Man" which he confirms will be an origin story. The original gray metal suit will be the first uniform Iron Man wears, but the red and yellow suit will appear. Favreau hopes to create a "Robocop" style feel to that suit. He also confirmed The Mandarin will be the villain.
