We just posted the first trailer (a red band one at that) for KICK-ASS 2 a few days back, and now we’ve got six new character posters to show you. The website CINE1 posted these (as you can see by their rather prominent and random watermark, but the most notable aspect is we’re finally getting a look at some of the new characters in the sequel, like Night Bitch (played by Lindy Booth), Mother Russia (played by Olga Kurkulina), and Black Death (played by Daniel Kaluuya). Oddly absent is Jim Carrey and Colonel Stars and Stripes, who is prominently featured in the trailer. Chances are there’s plenty more posters coming. With the character name on Christopher Mintz-Plasse’s poster, we wonder if some of these will never make it to the actual walls of movie theaters – or if these will be released again with censored character names. Take a look and tell us what you think in the comments below.
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.
