His character and The Wasp character are lovers.. Weird Al was probably the least Alabama option.

[–] unreachable@lemmy.world 50 points 2 years ago

he should dress up as Spiderman instead

with the headmask on, he'll be unrecognisable

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 163 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

Actors are people who exists outside of their work with their own hobbies and interests. Paul Rudd is getting paid to dress up and play Ant-Man only at his job, so he can dress up and play whomever he wants on his own time. (especially Weird Al)

Besides, if he actually dressed up as Ant-Man, everyone is just going to think he is a Paul Rudd impersonator anyways.

[–] bingbong@lemmy.dbzer0.com 44 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks for the insight, Margot Robbie

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

You're welcome, bingbong.

Also, that's esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie to you!

[–] bingbong@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ah yes, my sincere apologies, esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I really don't know why people here always insists on addressing me with both my first and last name for some reason.

[–] jscummy@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Because there's another esteemed character actress named Margo, we have to avoid confusion

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

... But Margo Martindale isn't Academy Award nominated though.

Why do you think I'm always so insistent on mentioning that?

[–] Technus@lemmy.zip 38 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Also, he's probably contractually bound to not appear as Ant Man without permission from the studio.

[–] angrymouse@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Holy shit this can possibly be the case. A little sad

[–] Case@unilem.org 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That and I doubt he wants to be shooting ready in an antman costume to walk around the neighborhood with his daughter.

His costume, other than the wig, is comfy as fuck. He can transition into whatever the night reasonably holds without have to have costumers remove the stuff and strip him of makeup, etc.

Besides, its probably in his contract to NOT portray his marvel character OUTSIDE of the movies, simply to retain proper branding. If he tried to put on his own antman getup, it would pale in comparison to a pound of makeup backed up by CGI artists.

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I mean, I don't think anyone was expecting him to get fully decked out in his movie gear, if his daughter wanted him to be ant man I'm sure she'd love it if he put on a cheap Amazon "Insect Guy" costume. That actually would've been hilarious, and with a mask on he may not have even been recognized

[–] creditCrazy@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Funny yes but he works for the same company that sued a dead kid for having a spider man grave stone

[–] uis@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

As I understand in american legal system dead always win

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Pretending to be a goofy impersonation of himself would be hilarious and would help him stay under the radar, huh.

Now, where have I heard that one before?

Some of you haven't read the Wasp v Weird Al comic event and it shows 😤

[–] Darth_Vader__@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

It's cannon

[–] NightLily@lemmy.basedcount.com 75 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What a nice dad trying to keep the attention on his kid!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 88 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I certainly wouldn't have recognized him. I just would have thought, "that guy has got Weird Al down."

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hiding in plain sight in a pretty funny way.

[–] blackluster117@possumpat.io 4 points 2 years ago

TRANSFORMERS!

[–] JusticeForPorygon 49 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Such a Paul Rudd thing to do.

"What's Thor's Hammer's name?"

"Jonathan."

I really like Paul Rudd as a person and I've hardly seen any movies with him.

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Alot of them are excellent. You should try some.

[–] b0gl@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

SLAPPA DAT BAASSS.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 25 points 2 years ago

Seems more /wholesome than /shitpost

[–] ScruffyDucky@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

She went as an imaginary character, he went as a legend :)

[–] glockenspiel@programming.dev 22 points 2 years ago (2 children)

People really need to stop this celebrity obsession. He's a dad trick or treating with his daughter a few years ago. It is beyond ridiculous that people not only tolerate this, but cheer it on.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You know, this is what dads do. Every good dad or mom is worth cheering on, since in this shit world it's not granted.

[–] glockenspiel@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Ha, I completely didn't pick up how my post could be read that way. And you're right! I meant more about people being creepy and not letting a dad and daughter go unbothered for Halloween.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

Internet would be so much more peaceful without legit misunderstandings haha. I'm sorry, you have a good day :)

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think they're implying that we shouldn't pay attention to it so these people can go back to having a private life. Maybe we can hope that might keep so many of them from dying by their own hands in one way or another.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 years ago

Oh, in in that case I agree. I might have misunderstood the msg

[–] theragu40@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Seriously, this.

All I could think of was wow, this poor little girl can't even have a normal childhood experience trick or treating with her dad because some fuck head paparazzo is chasing them around snapping pictures of them. That's so sleazy and shitty. She didn't ask for this. She just wants to be with her dad.

[–] DogMuffins@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Firstly, it's not necessarily a paparazzi - it could've just been someone in their neighbourhood who posted it to facebook.

Secondly, here we are generating "engagement" with the product of their work.

Best Howard Stern cosplay i've seen in a while.

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Only if he goes around saying "Dubayu-EEEEENNnnnn-bee-see" while someone dressed up as Paul Giamatti constantly correcting him "no no, is Dubayu-EEeennnn-bee-see"

[–] Ghost33313@kbin.social 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He could have totally pull off Celery Man though.

[–] TrenchcoatFullofBats@belfry.rip 2 points 2 years ago

Could I see the hat wobble?

Awesome guy

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

We all have our heroes.

[–] uis@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

No, really. He is voiced by Wierd Al, he looks like Wierd Al. So he IS Wierd Al.

[–] kaonashi@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 2 years ago

he really wanted to have two girlfriends
