With Peyton Reed's "Ant-Man" in theaters while Scott Derrickson's "Doctor Strange" is hitting the big screen next year, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has revealed the link of the tiniest superhero to Vincent Stevens' world.
In his interview with Cinema Blend at the Los Angeles press junket for Reed's "Ant-Man," Feige said that quantum physics is something in common between "Ant-Man" and "Doctor Strange." This scientific concept is linked with Hank Pym's innovation, the Pym Particles, which allow Ant-Man to change his size at will. Feige also mentioned that Pym's breakthrough violates the concept of space and time.
Previously, "Moonrise Kingdom" actress Tilda Swinton, who is playing The Ancient One in Derrickson's "Doctor Strange," revealed that the film will be different from other Marvel movies as it uses the laws of physics, such as the Astral Plane. This may bar Reed's "Ant-Man," as the Pym Particles also involves physics laws, which suggests that the two Marvel films may share the same concept.
According to Food World News, Ant-Man's ability to shrink allows him to go different dimensions, such as the quantum realm, which is just a bit of what fans can expect in Derrickson's "Doctor Strange." With this idea, it is assumed that fans will be able to explore more of these alternate domains, along with sorcery.
"Ant-Man" stars Paul Rudd as the titular superhero, along with Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lily, Corey Stoll, Anthony Mackie, Michael Pena, Judy Greer, Abby Ryder Fortson, Hayley Atwell, John Slattery, Stan Lee, and Bobby Cannavale, among others.
Meanwhile, "Doctor Strange" stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the titular superhero, together with Swinton and Chiwetel Ejiofor, among others.
Reed's "Ant-Man" is showing in theaters while Derrickson's "Doctor Strange" is set to hit theaters on Nov. 4, 2016.
