First Trailer For Kick-Ass 2 Hits Hard

MTV just revealed the first trailer for Kick-Ass 2. It’s a Red Band trailer, so it’s NSFW and chocked-full of the Mark Millar trademarks: lots of foul language and a bit of the ultra violence. The standout of the trailer is Jim Carrey as Colonel Stars. Carrey looks poised to steal the show from Chloe Moretz (HitGirl) and Aaron Johnson (Kick-Ass). Being an MTV video, it’s only available in the US. We have thrown a Youtube version in for our international friends. Kick-Ass 2 directed by Jeff Wadlow lands in theaters August 16. What do you think?

Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010’s irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2.  After Kick-Ass’ (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol.  When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.

When we last saw junior assassin Hit Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world’s first superhero team with Mindy. Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit Girl, she’s forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes.

Just as they start to make a real difference on the streets,  the world’s first super villain, The Mother F%&*^r, assembles his own evil league and puts a plan in motion to make Kick-Ass and Hit Girl pay for what they did to his dad. But there’s only one problem with his scheme: If you mess with one member of Justice Forever, you mess with them all.
