Universal Pictures has released the first trailer for writer/director Jeff Wadlow's Kick Ass 2, based on the comicbook of the same name by Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. The sequel stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson as the titular hero, Chloë Grace Moretz as Hit Girl, Jim Carrey as newcomer Colonel Stars and Stripes, Christopher Mintz-Plasse as returning villain Red Mist and Donald Faison as superhero Doctor Gravity, and arrives in U.S. theaters on June 28th.
Official Synopsis: 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 super team 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, though, Red Mist -- reborn as 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 all of them.
