Adrien Brody as Ant-Man?

Adrien Brody, at least according to two sources, is actively trying to nab the Ant-Man role.

The guy’s a great actor, and he’s already shown he can go genre if he puts his mind to it, so why the (seeming) hesitation on Marvel’s part? Well, knowing Marvel, they’re just trying to get the prices right, which in this case means paying Brody as little as possible for as much work as possible. But since Brody isn’t quite the $20 million dollar actor yet, I’m sure a reasonable deal can be agreed upon if they both want it badly enough.
