“Ant-Man” actress Evangeline Lily contemplated whether she should leave the production after director Edgar Wright announced his departure from the film.

Wright cited creative differences for leaving the Marvel movie, and Lily wasn’t happy she wouldn’t get to work on her Hope Van Dyne character with the director.

"I was [bummed out] when Edgar and Marvel decided to part ways," Lilly told InnerSpace. "I was nervous, and I kind of held off from signing my contract because I actually wanted to wait and see what would happen. I met Peyton [Reed] and we spoke, and I was convinced that I was going to do the project."

Lily isn’t finished filming her scenes in the “Ant-Man” production, but has enjoyed working with Reed.

"He has such impeccable taste, he's so collaborative, so much fun, and so deep into the comic book world," she said. "[He] always has been [in that world], all his life, and really knows the genre. I just have no doubt the film is going to be incredible. I think it's gonna be one of Marvel's best."

The actress has previously expressed her initial hesitation when she first stepped on the Marvel set. During an interview with Comic Vine, Lily revealed she had a preconceived notion that working on a big budget film would be restrictive, but was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be the opposite.

"Honestly, it’s easy for me to talk about it,” Lilly told Comic Vine. “I’ve had such a wonderful experience. Marvel Studios has shocked the pants off me. I really expected to be walking into a great big machine that would be so well oiled and anybody new with new ideas or new contributions would just be a pain in the butt.

“Marvel could not have been more opposite to those expectations. They’ve been collaborative in a way that makes me feel like—and I know you’re going to say this is bullcrap but it’s totally true—in a way that makes me feel like I was working on a little indie project. I mean, it was that intimate and that collaborative. I just had a wonderful experience."

“Ant-Man,” starring Lilly, Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas will be released to theaters on July 17, 2015.
