New 'Kick-Ass' images surface online

Do you already have the "Kick-Ass" fever? Newsarama recently posted two brand-new images from the set of Matthew Vaughn's comic book adaptation, which is currently shooting.

Created by Mark Millar, "Kick-Ass" tells the violent story of a boring high school student (played by Aaton Johnson) who attempts to become a real-life superhero named Kick-Ass but runs into several troubles because of his poor physique.

Also on board of this big-screen version are Nicholas Cage, Lyndsy Fonseca, Chloe Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.

Most of the major studios refused to develop the project because of the comic’s excessive violence, which is why Vaughn raised the budget for the flick himself. Vaughn previously directed “Layer Cake” and “Stardust.”
