Yesterday, we learned that Ant-Man had an alternate ending. Today, we’re learning that it had an alternate opening as well.

As director Peyton Reed tells Cinema Blend, the original opening would have added another flashback to the film, one that followed a young Hank Pym on an early Ant-Man mission.

It was basically a standalone sequence where you really did not see it was Hank Pym. He was retrieving some microfilm from this, originally Cuban general and then it because a Panamanian general… It really was designed in those early drafts to be almost like a Bond movie standalone scene in the beginning. It was going to show the powers. You never saw Ant-Man, it almost felt like an Invisible Man sequence, and it’s really, really cool.

The set piece scene was shot and cut together, but was ultimately edited out of the film because it felt untethered from the rest of the story.

It started to feel tonally disconnected from the movie we were making and story-wise, and it also kind of like, it set a standalone adventure, but it didn’t just connect to the rest of our story.

There is some hope though. Reed says there was discussion at one point about releasing the scene as part of a standalone Hank Pym adventure. Sounds like it could make for a fun Marvel One-Shot on the Ant-Man Blu-ray, if Marvel decides to go that route.

Ant-Man is now playing in theaters.
