For those of who who don’t know much about this project (those very few people, myself included, who never read the comic book or went to comic-con) Kick-Ass is the film adaptation of Mark Millar’s smash comic book series of the same name.  Not knowing much about this a few months ago, I saw some of the bootleg footage from comic-con and have to say I was very impressed.  Matthew Vaughn has produced Guy Ritchie’s Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch., the British remake of ‘The Longest Yard’ called Mean Machine and directed Layer Cake, which are all personal favorites of mine.  He’s got a great track record of awesome movies and looks to be taking great care to make this one wild ride.

KA All

From our good friends at FirstShowing.net, we get the following excerpt:

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. Kick-Ass was funded entirely by Matthew Vaughn and his own private investors and sold once finished to Lionsgate earlier this year.
