3. Matthew Vaughn Is Trying To Get Two More Kick-Ass Movies Into Production

Hell hath no fury like Matthew Vaughn trying to fix the Kick-Ass franchise. Which is to say, the British director - who helmed the original film - is reportedly trying to get a further two Kick-Ass movies off the ground, one of which is poised as a Hit-Girl prequel, apparently. Which doesn't make a lot of sense, of course, since Chloe Moretz is all grown up now. Still, here's what Vaughn currently has in mind, in his own words:
€œWe€™re working on an idea for a prequel of how did Hit Girl and Big Daddy become Hit Girl and Big Daddy. If we make that, hopefully that will be the sorbet for the people that didn€™t like Kick-Ass 2 and then we can go off and make Kick-Ass 3. I think we€™ve got to do this prequel to regain the love that we had.€
Whatever happens, it can't be worse than Kick-Ass 2, can it?
