Fan Casting Luis in Edgar Wright's Astonishing Ant-Man

Luis was reportedly arrested many years ago for stealing two smoothie machines (apparently from a Baskin-Robbins), and served a several-year prison sentence. Upon his release, Luis found himself unemployable until a chance encounter with scientist Hank Pym at a pizza trailer encouraged him to turn his skills – along with his friends Dave and Kurt, also recently released from prison – to form a security consultation firm, which they named X-Con Security. In what may not have been the best advertising, Luis broke into Dynatechnics, the company Pym worked at, posing as one of the security officers (who he knocked out and tied up in his van to take the uniform and electronic pass card), and left his business card on the plant manager's desk, along with a hand-written note indicating all the holes in their security he exploited getting in. As he was exiting the building, Luis became involved in Pym's first adventure with the ants, being accidentally shrunk down at the same time Pym shrunk himself. Luis nevertheless managed to save Pym's life from an ant that was about to eat him, punching the ant into unconsciousness with a single blow. (He was of course restored to human size at the end of that adventure.) In return for this, Pym managed to smooth things over with the knocked-out guard, preventing Luis from going back to prison on an assault charge. Since then, he and the others at X-Con Security have come to Pym's aid on a number of occasions, including playing a small but important role in getting Pym as Ant-Man and several other superhuman adventurers, most notably the Avengers and the X-Men, into Manhattan when the Zodiac Cartel sealed it off under a force dome.
