Vaughn also stated that there was a ‘Kick-Ass’ reboot being planned, “We’re going to reboot Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl.” In the interview, he revealed that a solo ‘Hit-Girl’ film was still in the pipeline, and could either look at a younger Mindy Macready, or a much older one. He had previously also expressed his plans of making a ‘Hit-Girl’ prequel. In June 2018, in an interview with Empire, Matthew Vaughn revealed his plans of making multiple ‘Kick-Ass’ follow-ups. While the third part certainly has a solid source material it could adapt, the project has faced other complexities. It has been years since then, and every few years, there are talks and speculations on how ‘Kick-Ass 3’ is in the pipeline. While elaborating on Dave Lizewski’s fate, he expressed,”There has to be something dramatic at the end he cannot do this for the rest of his life”. Miller even revealed that the characters could “maybe” die in the end, stating, “this is a realistic superhero story”. I’ll be finished in about a week or two’s time, and that’s the end.” “I’d always planned it as three books and three movies…I’ve just about finished the book. However, this is not enough to guarantee it another sequel.īack in 2013 in an interview with Yahoo! Movies, Mark Miller revealed that he had plans of a third film, and that it was going to be the final part: In fact, Tarantino placed ‘Kick-Ass 2’ as one of his top ten favourite films from 2013. However, the film did find itself a dedicated fan-base, which included Quentin Tarantino. While ‘Kick-Ass’ earned itself a certified fresh Rotten Tomato score of 76%, and grossed $96.2 million against its $28 million budget, its sequel’s rating dropped to 32%, and neither did ‘Kick-Ass 2’ enjoy similar box-office returns. Could there be more still in store for us? Read on to find out. It has been around 7 years since then, and while both creator, Mark Miller, and the original director, Matthew Vaughn, are keen on more follow-ups, nothing yet has materialized. Unfortunately, the film did not live upto the original. ‘Kick-Ass’ was then followed by a sequel in 2013, directed by Jeff Wadlow. The film ended up becoming a massive success, both commercially and critically, earning itself a cult-following. But it is also because the vision of the film was to ground it to the “real world”, and when real people fight, there is bound to be blood. In fact, it is undoubtedly one of the bloodiest, most violent superhero films ever made. ‘Kick-Ass’ did not escape controversy due to its profanity and Tarantino-esque violence, especially as Hit-Girl is 11-years-old. His paths then cross with Hit-Girl and Big Daddy, two costumed vigilantes, and the three unite to catch the crime boss, Frank D’ Amico, and his son, Red Mist. But it immediately turns out to be disastrous. The film is an adaptation of Mark Miller’s Hit-Girl & Kick-Ass comics, particularly the first part of Book 1, titled, Kick-Ass: The Dave Lizewski Years. It introduces us to Dave, the average geeky high-schooler who one day decides to become a superhero inspired by his comics.
