The Caregiver

Yeah, he may be getting his superhero on these days, but Paul Rudd will remain committed to his craft as an actor, too.

Which is why he is about to really stretch that acting muscle of his in a new and exciting way.

Rudd is going to star in the adaptation of the Jonathan Evison 2013 novel The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving, as a man who becomes friends with a young adult with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (the two grow to push each other to accept and embrace their lives).

This is a departure for the Ant-Man, no? He usually is a comedy guy, but this could easily make us see him in a brand new light moving forward.

Update: Selena Gomez will be joining Paul Rudd in the film.

She will play the sassy love interest of the young with whom his character becomes friends.
