- KICK-ASS 2
Kick-Ass 2 is finally moving forward at a gingerly pace,
with Universal having given the project the green light and Matthew Vaughn
taking up a producer role and handing over the directors’ chair to Jeff Wadlow.
Aaron Johnson has also confirmed that he will be back for
Kick-Ass 2 as he was recently talking about hiss latest project:
“It’s pretty much set to go, this Fall,” says the star. “I
think now Chloë [Moretz] and Chris [Mintz-Plasse] are on board. I’m certainly
set up to do it. Jeff Wadlow is to direct. Yeah, I think it’s going to happen.”

When asked as to whether he has taken a look at the new
script, Johnson confirmed that he has, and that in terms of R-rated violence
and sweariness, “it keeps the standard from the first film.” He also makes the
point that Vaughn’s involvement as producer should ensure the two films feel
suitably similar in both tone and quality.
“I think that’s why Matthew Vaughn has got his name all over
this one, as well,” he says of the demand for a second film. “The only way he
was ever going to make a sequel was if it could be anywhere close to the first
one, and keep that class and that quality, and just maintain something original
and new and refreshing. And this script delivers all of that, right now. I’m
excited to get back in the suit.”
Creator Mark Millar recently confirmed that the story will
follow Mintz-Plasse’s character as he begins to follow in the footsteps of his
villainous father, pitting him against Hit-Girl and Kick-Ass once more.
The film is expected to arrive at some point in 2013, with a
release date yet to be confirmed.
