Matt Gerald Will Play a Villain Role in Upcoming Marvel’s “Ant-Man”


It seems that the key cast of upcoming Marvel’s film “Ant-Man” has been completed with the addition of latest cast member “Matt Gerald” for a villainous role. It has been announced that he will plaY “one of the bad guys”, but it has not been told exactly which bad charactER he would play. A number of media sources reported this news, and the fact that Patrick Wilson (known for “Watchmen”, “The Conjuring” and “Insidious”) was also in talks for a key role in the film. Gerald has preViously appeared in several big Hollywood films including Avatar, Escape Plan, AND Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, and G.I. Joe: Retaliation.

Even the sources have not revealed anything about his villain status, many fans might have imagined as much, as Gerald is considered to be an outstanding actor at playing enemies. Many people remember him as the cruel Ray Speltzer from Season 7 of highly acclaimed serial killer TV show “Dexter”. He played the role of a serial killer who used to put on horns prior to killing his targets.

Many fans also know him as his character White Power Dave from the short film titled as “Marvel One-Shot: All Hail the King”, opposite Ben Kingsley and Sam Rockwell. His other credits are Red Dawn, TV show Castle, The Frozen Ground, Hawaii Five-0, TV series The Shield, Grimm, Intelligence and Last Resort.

Keeping in mind that he is not recapitulating the White Power Dave from “All Hail the King”, there is not nothing more to think about his bad character in Ant-Man, which is has become one of several anticipated films of the Summer 2015, particularly owing to the better cast that includes Michael Douglas as Hank Pym and Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man. Both are projected to wear the Ant-Man costume.

According to the comic books, Douglas’ character Dr. Henry Pym is the man who found out Pym Particles and is considered as the original Ant-Man, while Rudd’s character Scott Lang is a frantic crook who winds up thieving the Ant-Man outfit. This film has been projected to be launched on July 17, 2015, so we can expect to hear more news and details about the film this year, but for now, the cast is in progress satisfactorily, with “The Hobbit” star Evangaline Lilly and “End of Watch” star Michael Pena among the other big names linked to this film.
