Was Joseph Gordon-Levitt offered the role of Ant-Man?
Joseph Gordon-Levitt could have been one of the actors who is in both the DC and Marvel universes. He was John Blake in 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises, and he was also considered for the role of Ant-Man. He actually was one of the two main people considered for the role along with Paul Rudd. As fans know, Paul Rudd ended up taking the role. Gordon-Levitt hasn’t been in the MCU yet, but maybe he could be in the future.
Paul Rudd has definitely been memorable as Ant-Man. His humor and quirkiness have made him great in the role, and we love his relationships with his daughter, Cassie Lang. Paul Rudd has played Ant-Man in the first Ant-Man movie as well as Ant-Man and the Wasp with Evangeline Lilly. He also had some scenes in Captain America: Civil War. While the character wasn’t in Infinity War, he is set to return in Avengers 4, and we are excited to see what Marvel will do with the character in the future.
We think Paul Rudd was a better choice for Ant-Man, but we would definitely like to see Joseph Gordon Levitt’s pretty face in an MCU film in the future. Perhaps in a Spider-Man movie or an X-Men adaptation?
