KICK-ASS Poster
Thanks to AICN, we now have a Comic-Con poster, drawn by John Romita Jr., for the upcoming adaptation of Mark Millar‘s comic book “Kick-Ass.”
Kick-Ass follows a high school dweeb named Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson). Lizewski decides to become a superhero, even though he has no athletic ability or coordination. Things change when he eventually runs into real bad guys, with real weapons. Nicolas Cage plays a former cop who tries to bring down a drug lord and has trained his daughter (Chloe Moretz) to be a lethal weapon.
Director Matthew Vaughn (Stardust) tells AICN that “Kick-Ass” is “definitely the best movie I’ve ever made”.
The film was test screened and
“The test scores… I’m not even going to tell you what they were because you wouldn’t believe me. They were just phenomenal. And two of the things that were singled out for praise was that it was unique – it was like nothing anyone had seen before – and that it was fun.”He adds that one viewer described it as ‘teenage Tarantino’. Mark Millar will premiere footage from “Kick-Ass” at Comic-Con on Thursday, July 23rd. The film stars Nicolas Cage, Aaron Johnson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Lyndsy Fonseca and Chloe Moretz. Kick-Ass does not yet have a release date.
