One of the Biggest Themes in ANT-MAN is the "Redemption in the Father - Daughter Relationship"



Many fans are looking forward to the action, humor and shrinking technology of ANT-MAN but there is a deeper theme behind the Marvel Studios movie. And it's deeper than the film being a heist movie or a comedy or an action movie. It's the theme revolving around the father and daughter relationships in ANT-MAN.

In an interview with MomOnTheSide, actors Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly spoke about their respective father and daughter relationships in ANT-MAN.

"I knew the action was going to be good, Rudd said. "The visuals were going to be crazy good. I also knew there was this relationship that Scott Lang had with his daughter. It’s the relationship that Michael Douglas has with his daughter. This whole thing with parents and children was going to be the thrust of the film. That’s relateable [sic], empathetic, and something we can hang the whole thing on. That’s pretty dramatic." 
"Redemption. Redemption really is a big theme in the film. Redemption in the father daughter relationship is THE powerful theme that anchors the film emotionally," Lilly added.
