Corey Stoll in Ant-man 3

Corey is a fantastic villain because he has such strong motivation to use these new weapons for the good of mankind while at the same time having no problem using them against people who get in his way. This is most evident when he battles Ant-Man after being given an opportunity by Mitchell Carson (who would go on to become one of The Wasp’s main villains). Corey really does have incredible comic timing and I can’t wait to see him back again! In Ant-Man Three, Corey plays Darren Cross, Pym’s former protégée who seeks to steal the suit from his mentor.

Corey portrays a scientist turned criminal, trying to take over Ant-Man’s company while also developing his own version of the shrinking technology. In this movie, Corey Stoll plays Darren Cross, an upstart executive at Hank Pym’s old company who takes it upon himself to recreate Hank’s size-changing tech as Yellowjacket armor so he can continue selling militarized versions of it to whoever will buy them. Corey’s character is very different from the one he played in House of Cards, but Corey Stoll does a great job at playing him and I can’t wait to see what else Corey has up his sleeve for Ant-Man Three!

Corey Stoll official statement about his role in Ant-man 3

Corey Stoll says, “It’s a lot of fun. It has everything that you want in it.” Corey is excited to share his character with the audience because he brings something new and different. Corey plays Yellowjacket–a villain who wants to take over the world using militarized ants and Pym Particles particles (subatomic particles). He believes Darren Cross should be taken seriously as an antagonist but also have a sense of humor about him so audiences can still like him on some level despite being evil.

Corey Stoll as a Marvel Character

Corey’s performance made his part of MCU irreplaceable for me. It was genuinely one of my favorite parts; of the movie. Because I loved how unpredictable and dangerous he seemed to be.

Corey has always had an amazing ability; to make you feel that fear mixed with hope; which makes him such an incredible actor; whenever we are expected to sympathize or root for somebody; who doesn’t seem like they would deserve either reaction; from us at first glance–I think few actors have ever been more skilled; at making those emotions; appear on their face, in Corey’s case it is usually anger and the desire for vengeance.

The actor has that dark edge, but he also has a vulnerability; which makes his character’s development; as someone; who cares about people more than anything else. So believable because you can see how much he wants to just be normal again. And not have this giant target over his head at all times
