In a new interview with MTV, Marvel president Kevin Feige has confirmed that ANT-MAN will be a part of the studio’s third go-around.  While we knew already that it would hit theaters November 6, 2015, this was the first time that Feige talked about his faith in director Edgar Wright:

“ANT-MAN is definitely part of Phase Three. Like IRON MAN 3, it’s certainly set in the Marvel Universe, but it’s also through the lens of Edgar Wright — which is the only reason we’re making the movie.”

Besides the little man that could, Feige also confirmed that Doctor Strange will be getting his own film:

“‘Doctor Strange,’ which I’ve been talking about for years, is definitely one of them…He’s a great, original character, and he checks the box off this criteria that I have: he’s totally different from anything else we have, just like ‘Guardians of the Galaxy.’ He’s totally different from anything we’ve done before, as is ‘Ant-Man,’ which keeps us excited.”

Feige said that the groundwork for both movies and the rest of Phase Three will definitely be laid during CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, THOR: THE DARK WORLD, and THE AVENGERS 2.  The only question now is after such a successful run of origin stories and sequels…where do we go from here?
