Josh Keaton is set to lend his voice to the titular shrinking hero. The short animated series will follow Lang, who "will fight evil alongside the Wasp and Hank Pym. He'll score occasional breaks to help daughter Cassie with her homework."

Alan Fine, Dan Buckley, Joe Quesada, Cort Lane, Stephen Wacker and Stan Lee serve as executive producers, while Cara Speller and Marc Bodin-Joyeux produce.
The six two-minute shorts in this series are titled "Science Fair", "Alien Invasion", "Soup Time", "Exterminator", Proton Cube" and "Not a Date".
