When Marvel's 'Ant-Man' movie was announced to initially be directed by Edgar Wright, fans of the director's work and the superhero franchise were equally excited to witness the outcome.

It was later revealed that Wright would no longer be working on the movie due to inconsistencies with the studio and the director. What fans ultimately got from this is that Marvel wasn't confident in Wright's vision for the film.

Peyton Reed was later announced to helm the film, and despite him taking over the reigns, fans were still curious to see what Wright had planned for the movie. In a recent interview with Reed and Empire Magazine, this was finally revealed.

He first discusses the awkwardness of taking over the project:

"Was it a strange situation? Absolutely. One of my concerns upfront was, 'Someone else has developed this movie for a really long time. Can I come in and make it my own?' And that has absolutely been the case. For one thing Marvel [has] let me explore the dark side of Hank Pym, this tortured, guilt-ridden guy... [Edgar Wright and I] both acknowledged the general weirdness of the situation. It's all very odd, but it's been really nice to communicate with him."

He then notes the differences in between his take on the film, and Wright's:

"I think the most defining difference between the two scripts was that Edgar's didn't take itself as seriously. It was fun and silly and brilliant[ly] irreverent - a romp from beginning to end, in classic English fashion. Whereas where we've gotten to is so much more American. There's tons of levity, but just as much emotion."

'Ant-Man' drops into theaters on July 17.
