Next to Christopher Nolan‘s Inception, Matthew Vaughn‘s Kick-Ass is far and away my most anticipated film of 2010. The action comedy, which is kicking off SXSW in March, has a new trailer thanks to Yahoo. Check it out below or over in HD at Yahoo. After checking out the green band one below, I highly recommend checking out the red band trailer focusing on Hit Girl here.
Kick-Ass gives us a comic-book fanboy, Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson), who is tired of sitting on the sidelines and watching the crime get worse and worse. He decides to take his superhero obsession and transform himself into a crime fighting Kick-ass superhero — you don’t need super powers to kick someone’s ass. Along the way he meets other teenagers who were inspired by his example; forming an alliance to take care of the local mob boss Frank D’Amico (Mark Strong). They prove that sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands and as one poster for the film said, “I can’t fly, but I can kick your ass.”
Kick-Ass hits theaters April 16th, 2010 thanks to Lionsgate.
What do you think of the trailer?
