You may remember that Edgar Wright initially developed Ant-Man over the course of several years to direct, writing the screenplay with Joe Cornish. He exited the project over creative differences last spring, but Marvel recovered quickly and had the film in front of cameras by late July with Peyton Reed in the director’s chair.
According to Disney’s press release for the new trailer, the official “screenplay by” credit goes to McKay and Paul Rudd, while Wright and Cornish get a “story by” credit and Wright remains credited as an executive producer.
