Contrary to previous reports stating Adam McKay was taking over the reigns of Marvel's 'Ant-Man' and reuniting with his Anchorman co-star Paul Rudd, attempting to break out of the broad comic niche of his past films. As of now, that isn't happening anymore. As this very fluid situation rolls on, The Hollywood Reporter now reports that McKay has removed his name from the Ant-Man conversation, and that the decision was his, alone.
The search for a new Ant-Man director apparently rolls on.
