Awesome Early Teaser Trailer for Matthew Vaughn's Kick-Ass
November 11, 2009

by Alex Billington
Wow, did not expect to see this until Friday! The first teaser trailer for Matthew Vaughn's Kick-Ass, his beautifully violent adaptation of Mark Millar's comic series, has arrived online officially via MySpace. Holy f*ckin' hell this looks so awesome. I've been a fan of the comic series since it hit and I've been excited for this movie since it was first announced. I knew that Vaughn would deliver! I think this may revive Nic Cage's career and it will definitely put both Aaron Johnson (as Kick-Ass) and Chloe Moretz (as Hit Girl) on the map. If you've seen nothing from this movie yet, you're in for one hell of a treat, I promise you that. Enjoy!
Watch the teaser trailer for Matthew Vaughn's Kick-Ass:
You can also watch the Kick-Ass teaser trailer in High Definition on MySpace
Kick-Ass is both written and directed by British filmmaker Matthew Vaughn, of Layer Cake and Stardust previously. The screenplay was co-written by Vaughn and his writing partner Jane Goldman, of Stardust as well. The story is an adaptation of Mark Millar's comic of the same name that is currently in the middle of its first series. Kick-Ass was funded entirely by Matthew Vaughn and his own private investors and sold once finished to Lionsgate earlier this year. They've currently set an April 16th, 2010 release date for the film, although I hope they change that, because that's a terrible opening day. So how does that look? Badass?

cool trailer but the costumes are looking a little sillier in this then they did in the stills. Big Daddy still looks cool even though is is way different from the comic-book. maybe it's just the floating head introduction thing that bothers me. I do like how they didn't say Nick Cage;s name in the trailer though, that i admire.

This makes me wish they'd done a bunch of "failed hero" vignettes. That would be awesome.

McLovin as Red Mist
Decent trailer, but I thought the beginning went on a little too long. If this is in the movie, it kinda ruins a good, unexpected joke. Because you will see it a million times before the movie is released.

i agree with #5.
but hopefully… better.

I just hope Nic Cage doesn't ruin it….

Cool!! WAY better than I expected!!
The instant when that kid hits the cab is just HILARIOUS!!!
Besides, Mathew Vaughn is a great storyteller/producer, Layer Cake is one of my all time favorites.
Now, I will expect more and more of this new movie, I may look into the comic!

soooo, is the count down just going to continue on? I guess this is just a teaser and the MySpace one will be a full on trailer? Can't wait!

Looks like it'll be good.
How anyone can say the intro with the guy falling of the building is too long just melts my mind, I suppose it should have started with an explosion…

This looks, well……Kick-Ass. I always knew Mathew Vaughn had it in him to do the comic book genre justice. This flick will surely boost the careers of everyone involved. Equally as impressive is the fact that this flick is distributed by Lionsgate, which could really use a hit. I'm sure they're on to something here! I'll be checkin' this flick out!

I'm dancing around right now like Homer Simpson when he's flapping his hands and shouting "Oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god". I can't wait for this. I love the comic, and this trailer looks like a damn near perfect interpretation so far.

This is definately not PG-13 and if it's true to the source material easily earns an R. The teaser does show the comic side of it, but the comic is truly kick-ass and violent as hell. From what I see here I'm definately gonna see it.

Looks great, but "Nic Cage" and "From the director of Stardust" makes me want to scream.

I don't think this trailer does the film justice at all after seeing the first trailer. BUT I am sooo stoked nonetheless.

This is NOT Mystery Men….Correct me if I am wrong, but I do not remember a scene in Mystery Men where a bad guy's throat was slashed and blood gushed across the room!
The Kick Ass comic is a brilliant blend of comedy and R-rated violence. Mystery Men was just a comedy these two movies are not the same…there will be no "Waffler" in this movie. This trailer also pulls a good trick by playing up the comedy and not the violence…that could be awesome! Imagine a family taking their kids to this because they think it is a Zombieland type hero movie and then they see Hit Girl disembowel a bad guy! I want to be in that audience.

Alex, did you ever release the first trailer online from Comicon? That one was far better than this.
Marty Martin on Nov 11, 2009
