'Kick-Ass' sequel almost ready to go?

Matthew Vaughn's upcoming "Kick-Ass," which is based on the comic book series by Mark Millar, won't hit theaters until April 16, 2009, but one guy is already talking about a sequel to the anticipated action comedy.

Who? Well, the comic book's creator himself. Millar recently said a sequel would happen within the next two years, and now he tells MTV the story is coming together as well.

"There's a basic plot," he said. "The series ends on a teaser for the next one, and the movie ends on that teaser, too.

"We don't want to sound too cocky, but we know this is good," Millar said. "It didn't cost that much money to make. There will definitely be another one."

Miller, of course, is also the guy behind "Wanted," which had a successful theatrical run. A sequel to that one is also already in development.

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

Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Nicholas Cage, Lyndsy Fonseca, and Chloe Moretz co-star. Footage from the film was shown at this year's Comic-Con, and it sure received a bunch of of positive responses.
