Following the news that Mark Millar and Matthew Vaughn are looking to get the Kick-Ass movie series back up and running, with a possible Hit Girl movie rumoured, it seemed just a matter of time before someone would ask Chloe Grace Moretz her views on the matter.
Moretz, of course, memorably brought the character of Hit-Girl/Mindy Macready to life in the two Kick-Ass films to date. And chatting at the Provincetown Film Festival over the weekend, Moretz expressed her love of the character and franchise, but ruled herself out of a return.
“I love the franchise, I think the first movie was really, really special” she said.
“I wish the second one had been handled in a little bit of a different way. Because I think we were all kind of looking forward to something a little different than what happened with it all. As much as I love the character of Hit-Girl, I think she lives and survives in Kick-Ass, and I kind of want to keep her there. I kind of want to keep everyone’s mind in Kick-Ass. So I don’t think there will be a Kick-Ass 3, at least I don’t think with Hit-Girl in it”.
We await further news on the films with interest. Not least casting information as it becomes available…
