      Heroes don't get any bigger with the new trailer for Marvel's Ant-Man, in theaters July 16.
      NOW PLAYING • Trailer: Ant-Man
      Heroes don't get any bigger with the new trailer for Marvel's Ant-Man, in theaters July 16. ...

      Ant-Man precariously balances action with comedy in Marvel's first full-length trailer, which hit the web.

      The San Francisco-set superhero flick stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang, an ex-con burglar whose daughter Cassie (Abby Ryder Fortson) is ill.

      Two-time Oscar winner Michael Douglas plays Dr. Hank Pym, a scientist who's invented the Ant-Man supersuit.

      Pym was technically Ant-Man in the comics, and this film sees him passing the torch to Lang.

      "My days of breaking into places and stealing stuff are over. What do you want me to do?" Scott asks Hank.

      Pym replies: "I want you to break into a place and steal some stuff."

      And Lang shrugs: "Makes sense."

      Fresh off The Hobbit, Golden Globe nominee Evangeline Lilly plays Pym's tough daughter Hope Van Dyne.

      The 35-year-old actress trains the 46-year-old funnyman on how to throw (and take) a punch.

      But it's the Ant-Man suit which truly enables Scott to shrink in scale yet increase in strength.

      Lang's "greatest allies" are the armies of ants he seemingly commands once shrunken down to their size.

      Johansson centre stage for final Avengers trailer

      07 Apr 04:00 AM

      His nemesis Yellowjacket - a former Pym protégé - happens to have a sleeker, better equipped supersuit.

      Yellowjacket aka Darren Cross is played by Golden Globe nominee Corey Stoll, who's best known for House of Cards and The Strain.

      And while Ant-Man has no weapons on his suit, Yellowjacket is armed with plasma cannons.

      The trailer ends in little Cassie's room where her father and Yellowjacket battle it out on her toy train set.

      Yellowjacket appears to be nearly pummelled on the tracks by the "raging" choo-choo.

      It's a surprisingly goofy moment for the microscopic Marvel franchise, bringing it closer to Honey I Shrunk the Kids territory.

      The troubled production has been stalled since the late 1980s, with director Edgar Wright being "amicably" replaced by Peyton Reed (Yes Man, The Break-Up) last year.

      The World's End Englishman - who turns 41 on Saturday - still has a "story by" credit and is listed as co-producer.

      Ant-Man - hitting New Zealand theaters July 16 - also features Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña, Judy Greer, and Tip 'T.I.' Harris.
