Mark Miller talks Kick-Ass 2 status

Talking to New Empress Magazine, Mark Millar has offered yet another enthusiastic update about the big screen adaptation of Kick-Ass 2. We've known for a while now that work was progressing on the sequel, although it sounds as if it's now closer to becoming a reality than ever before. "I literally just got a hard copy of the screenplay delivered this morning. What can I tell you that nobody knows? Actually, not a lot if you’d read the book because it’s a very close adaptation. I can tell you that Chloe’s a lot taller. Her brother’s about 6’5 or something so I’m hoping she stops growing soon as we’re planning a third one too."

Meanwhile, in a live chat over on the Millarworld Fourms, the comic book writer confirmed that pre-production has already begun and that we should expect an announcement very, very soon. "Kick-ass 2 films this Summer. I expect there will be an announcement of some sort in the next week. Certainly before Kapow next month for sure." He added, "Matthew is co-writing and producing, Kick-Ass being a labour of love for him. He selected the perfect director last year and we're very, very happy. Trust him...he knows what he's doing." Are you looking forward to the sequel? Sound off with your thoughts in the usual place.

So expect official movie announcement and director announcement withen the next month !
