KICK-ASS Hyperbole to Spill Over Into a Sequel

By  | 

Some people can’t get enough Ass-Kick.  Cue Nic Cage’s giggly hiccup here.

The highly anticipated KICK-ASS has debuted at SXSW.  You can check out our very own, Travis’, review right here.  But, it’s not so much KICK-ASS premiering to hundreds of adoring fans (most of whom, I’m sure, were saying the film “kicks ass” all throughout the Texas night) that is causing buzz now some 48 hours later.  What is getting the buzz are the reports coming from the red carpet, wherein just about everyone involved in the film was talking sequel.

As evidenced by red carpet reports from Coming Soon.net and Film School Rejects, Mark Millar, John Romita, Jr., Aaron Johnson, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse all confirmed a KICK-ASS 2 is coming, and it could be coming soon.  How soon we can only assume at this point, but, once the film is released on April 16th, we may have a better idea just how quickly Lionsgate will want a sequel served up.  I’m sure, as soon as it is announced, it will already be dubbed as the “greatest superhero sequel in the history of the world.”

…or something like that.
