‘Kick-Ass 2’ Gets A New Featurette!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: Kick-Ass 2 is just one week away from theatres, and Universal today debuted a new featurette for the anticipated film.

The video features plenty of new footage, and mostly deals with the tough production of a battle between Mother Russia and Hit Girl. The fight looks pretty impressive from what we see here, and it apparently took an entire two weeks to film!

I’m very excited for to get in line for Kick-Ass 2, and today’s featurette really gives us a great peek at just how fun the movie will be. Take a look at the featurette below, and let us know what you think!

Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010’s irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2. 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 F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloe Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation. When we last saw junior assassin Hit Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world’s first superhero team with Mindy.
 
Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit Girl, she’s forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes. Just as they start to make a real difference on the streets, the world’s first super villain, The Mother F%&*^r, assembles his own evil league and puts a plan in motion to make Kick-Ass and Hit Girl pay for what they did to his dad. But there’s only one problem with his scheme: If you mess with one member of Justice Forever, you mess with them all.

Well. seems yet another image Russian bodybuilder, Olga Kurklina, in her Mother Russia costume has hit the net. They have definitely changed the costume around for director Jeff Wadlow’s Kick-Ass 2.

UPDATE: KICK-ASS 2’s Mother Russia Finally Revealed

by Shawn Madden

Recently KICK-ASS 2 director Jeff Wadlow has been tweeting some teaser images but never really revealing who will be playing Mother Russia in next year’s film. Well, it appears that a rumor about who will be playing the character has turned out to be true. Bleeding Cool has done some researching and found an excerpt from IronWorld.ru the reveals that Olga Kurkulina has indeed been cast in the coveted role of Mother Russia, the key villainess of Kick-Ass 2.

I competed against other candidates from America, Switzerland and Holland. I spent three weeks in the casting, which took place at Pinewood studios. At the end, the director told me that I was getting a role. This was a difficult time psychologically and physically.

Mny people worked hard and from the heart to help me. On August 30th we fly to Toronto for a month’s shooting on location, and then we go back to London where stunts will be filmed at a local studio.

Now I’m train hard, learning new movements for attack and defense working with professionals on my acting and speech training.

So, are you guys ready for the epic final battle in KICK-ASS 2?! I know I am. I just hope they stay true to the ending of the comics this time around.

UPDATE: Thanks to the guys over at Bleeding Cool we also now have a set photo revealing a first look at Olga Kurkulina as Mother Russia. It’s definitely a bit different than the one in the comics but then again so were the costumes in the last movie.

Jeff Wadlow Teases A Look At Mother Russia In ‘KICK-ASS 2’ And More!

by Shawn Madden

There’s only a few days until filming begins on KICK-ASS 2 and director Jeff Wadlow has been tweeting some images from the set to tease the fans. One including a look at ‘Mother Russia’, even though there has been no announcement on who will be filling the role yet. From the looks of it this one may just top the original movie and will stay true to the two-series that the film we be an adaptation of. However, if it does do that…we could see an R-rating attached to this movie, not that it would be a bad thing. But honestly from the looks of it this movie just may, well…kick ass.
