Paul Rudd

Brought up by a colony of ants, at the age of 16, Paul despaired of what his life would become. One day, his mother saw him sobbing and asked him what was the matter – “Mom,” he replied, “I want to be an actor more than anything, but how will I, someone who was brought up by ants, ever get noticed in Hollywood.” His mother, one of the wisest ants in the colony said “son, you never know when a great director will need someone with the experience of life in an ant colony. Now come and help me carry this tiny piece of leaf.” Of course, she turned out to be correct and when Kevin Feige wanted to cast his Ant Man, there was no actor more suited to the role than Paul.
