It looks likely that graphic novelist and comic creator Mark Millar is going to be seeing his work adapted for the big screen several times over the next few years. Wanted and Kick-Ass have already been given the movie treatment, and more are in the offing. As well as Kick-Ass 2, Superior and a brand [...]
With the comic miniseries of Kick-Ass 2 currently being produced, a movie version of the second part of this planned trilogy is surely a given. It’s highly likely, at the very least, but it may be that changes to the cast and crew will have to be made in order to get it made. Millar [...]
As I’ve said far too many times on Snarkerati already, I absolute loved the movie version of Kick-Ass. The ending was a little cheesy but up until that point it was a fantastic slice of graphic novel adapted successfully for the big screen. Kick-Ass did pretty well at the box office, enough to surely warrant [...]
I love the movie version of Kick-Ass. The storyline is awesome, the acting performances are magnificent, and Matthew Vaughn does a great job at directing. OK, so the ending was a little disappointing, at least in my opinion, but we can’t have everything can we. With all that in mind I was and am hoping [...]
I’ve written quite extensively on these pages of my love for Kick-Ass, both the film and the comic book it was based on. So the sequel cannot come quick enough for me personally. And it appears Mark Millar feels the same. Millar is the man who wrote the Kick-Ass comic book, and he’s also writing [...]
After Kick-Ass failed to really make it big in the U.S. there were doubts whether a sequel would ever see the light of day. Mark Millar is, and always was, going to write another graphic novel based on the characters, but that doesn’t guarantee a movie version will ever be made. However, with Millar now [...]
Kick-Ass 2, or Kick-Ass: Balls To The Wall to give it its official title, is definitely happening, with a 2012 release scheduled. And I can’t wait, having loved the first film and the comic it was based on. The man who created the comic book and all the characters therein, including the magnificent Hit Girl [...]
Jane Goldman is writing the screenplay for X-Men: First Class, at least according to her husband Jonathan Ross speaking on Twitter earlier today. Ross actually began by referring to the film as X-Men 4, leading some to speculate that this was actually a fourth full X-Men movie. But he has since clarified his comments, and [...]
As regular readers will likely already be aware, I’m a huge fan of the Kick-Ass movie. Having watched it blossom from a mere idea into a living, breathing comic and movie, I finally saw the film and was not disappointed. So news that a sequel is likely on the way has made my day. The [...]
Kick-Ass is one of those films whose progress I have followed right from the off through to its release on the big screen. Having written about the movie for 18 months, tonight was the night I finally got to see how it turned out. Thankfully, it turned out very well indeed. I haven’t read the [...]
