When we say Captain America : Civil War hasthe good superhero action scene of all time in it , we intend it . Part of that is the gauzy amount of superheroes involved , part of that is the humour , another part is Spider - Man , but a big part is what Ant - Man does . So we talked to the people behind the scenes about how it go down .

Spoiler warning .

During the massive airport conflict , Ant - Man goes the diametrical way of his normal stuff and becomes Giant - Man , an incredibly marvelous and solid version of himself that altogether start to ruin squad Iron Man . It feels like the variety of reveal that might have been been save up for the forthcoming sequel Ant - Man and the Wasp but manufacturer Kevin Feige feel this was the veracious meter .

“ It was just a great approximation to turn the tide of the struggle in a immense , shocking , unexpected direction , ” Feige tell io9 . “ We have a lot of melodic theme for Ant - Man 2 , none of which are contingent upon revealing Giant - Man , so we thought this would be the fun , incredible unexpected manner to do that . ”

Civil War ’s writers , Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely uncover that land Giant - Man into the film was something they really wanted to do but there was some pushback .

“ The brothers [ directors Joe and Anthony Russo ] had to fight for it , ” McFeely order . “ They had to go to the studio and say , ‘ No it ’s not zany , it ’s cool . ’ ”

“ Some people are like ‘ What does Ant - Man do in a big fight ? Well , he can become the most powerful thing , ” Markus interjected . “ It will be awesome and it is a literal escalation of the fight . ”

“ It ’s a comic Holy Scripture flick ! ” McFeely continued . “ In the run aground Winter Soldier , it ’s Three Days of the Condor except in the middle there ’s a talking golem that tell you HYDRA has been there the whole time . And a great deal of people went , ‘ That ’s a little much . ’ No , it ’s a comic book movie ! That ’s okay . Same thing here , except it ’s Giant - human being . ’

consort to Feige , the other good part of it was , “ We knewif we got Spideywe could have him do the AT - AT matter . ”

Yes , in the movie Spider - Man make for down Giant - Man just like Luke Skywalker bring down AT - AT ’s on Hoth in The Empire Strikes Back , by swing out around his legs . Spidey himself even book of facts “ that old movie , ” a moment the writers did n’t want .

“ The crony really wanted to put it in there , ” said McFeely . “ We get a little queasy about referencing other flick . They do n’t , and they were proper . ”
