Kick-Ass 2 is a Go!

Kick Ass 2

I thought Kick-Ass was a great movie and I’m glad to seeing that they’re going ahead with a sequel.
From Cinamablend:

But here’s the good news for Kick-Ass fans: Millar says Kick-Ass 2 is happening. After it makes all that crazy DVD money he says, “So It should be okay. So the sequel’s greenlit, we can go ahead and do the follow up now, you know. The first made so much compared to what it cost it would be crazy not to.”

New Details on X-Men: First Class Emerge

X-Men First Class

Bryan Singer has revealed new details about X-Men: First Class. It’s shaping up to be a very interesting movie.
From IGN:

Singer spoke with AICN about the film, seeking to clarify what exactly is being done with everyone’s favorite band of merry mutants. First off, the film is set in the 1960s. JFK is the president, the Civil Rights movement is in full swing, and “there is a spirit of a hopeful future that was prevalent in that time.” Charles Xavier and the man who will become Magneto — Erik Lehnsherr — meet and dream of a future where man and mutant can live together in peace. And we all know how that works out…

Some bullet points follow on the ton of info that Singer has revealed:

* The two leads will be in their late twenties.

* Xavier will not be in his wheelchair, but we will learn how he gets there.

* He’ll also still have hair.

* Xavier and Magneto will create the X-Men together.

* This is not based on the comic book called First Class but rather is “a new beginning” for the series.

* Director Matthew Vaughn is “technologically inspired” by the James Bond tech of the ’60s.

* The costumes will be more “comic bookish” than in previous films.

* Neither Cyclops nor Marvel Girl will show up, but Cyke’s brother Havoc will.

* Kevin Bacon will play Sebastian Shaw and, yes, the Hellfire Club will figure into the mix.

* Filming begins with Xavier at Oxford University.

* The movie will have a much more international feel than previous installments. (The shoot will take place in England and the U.S.) Other locations will include Russia (though they won’t actually film there).

* There are other characters in the film who have not been revealed yet.

It sounds pretty cool. I’m glad they’ve decided to use the Hellfire Club.
