We're pretty excited to see the gestating sequel Kick-Ass 2 hit theaters later this summer, but only paparazzi photos have surfaced online, and that's not our bag. However, the first official photo from the comic book sequel has arrived and it shows us Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Jim Carrey in full superhero garb as Kick-Ass and Colonel Stars and Stripes and his trusty guard dog (who is named Sophia in the comic). Stripes invites Kick-Ass to join his group of heroes Justice Forever who are hellbent on taking down Red Mist, now known as The Mother Fucker, and his whole crime ring. I can't wait to see Jim Carrey in this!
Here's the first official look at Kick-Ass 2 from EW (via ComingSoon):
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 Fucker, only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloe Moretz) can prevent their annihilation. Donalid Faison, John Leguizamo, Morris Chestnut and more also star in Kick-Ass 2, the comic book sequel based on the series by Mark Millar, and the film is slated to hit theaters in a prime spot this summer June 28th. Cool?

Hahah, yeah TMC's are the villains in the movie... though it'd make an excellent band name!

Jim's making a decent comeback! (Kick-Ass 2, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, and Dumb and Dumber To)

Well, after looking at Yes Man and Mr. Popper's Penguins, I think Jim might redeem himself on this run. He's had time.

I still find it wildly bizarre that Johnson hyphenated his last name after he got married. Also I kind of wish the villain was Motherfucker Jones from Horrible Bosses.

Is Donald Fasion a super hero in this or a cop? Cause I kinda see the cop role going to Morris Chestnut.

Hope this one is R rated as well. That dog seems familiar...

First off, I loved Kick-Ass, and Matthew Vaughn and Co. are why. A terrific pairing of an astute director, solid writing camp, and the drive to make what they wanted, without studio interference, is what why the first film was so good. Now with Universal backing this, Jeff Wadlow somehow both writing AND directing this and Vaughn ony attached as a producer? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't concerned. Hope for the best, maybe Wadlow will finally hit one out of the park, but I won't hold my breath.
