First Official KICK-ASS 2 Image Features Jim Carrey & Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Damn nail really wanted to present this news as fast as possible.

LOL... the Zanzibar .... one of Toronto's high end strip bars ... nice touch. The PdR in the background is definitely not a NY landmark either.

I bet he doesnt you know what as soon as he did in the comic,I bet he has a much bigger part just because of who he is,people will go see this film just because of carrey if he makes it on one of the posters for the film

I'm not sold on Wadlow as writer/director

Yeah the problem you get with Jim Carrey is you do not know which Jim Carrey your are gonna get! I hope he nails this performance.

lol @BrotherStark

I REALLLLY wonder how this is gonna be accepted by the American mainstream audience in light of a 'post Aurora/Newtown movie going public'. Will an 'A-List' actor like Jim Carrey bring a 'gravitas' to this project that it might not otherwise have?

'Off-the-hinges' violent is what we would expect from this, but for those 'not in the know,' 'Kick-Ass 2' would seem to be the next 'lightning-rod' movie that 'Django Unchained' is currently.

My hope is that the directors and writers don't ultimately edit the finished product down to a 'palatable' film that is SO 'pc' that it's broader, more important points about youth violence aren't lost in the shuffle.

What's this hyphenate name BS? That boy s name is just Johnson dammit, no Taylor in it. He needs to step up to that much older wife of his and take his name back like a man. Normally I'd give props to a young turk bagging an old cougar but its clear who wears the pants in this relationship.

Also PeteDarker, yore reading into this way too much. First of all the flick isn't coming out until June. I'm not saying people are gonna just forget about all this gun violence debate by then, but people have short attention spans. The public will have moved on to another cause or crusade by then. An to say that KickAss2 will be another lightning rod movie is overstepping as well. Do I hope it will be good? Yes. Do I think it will perform well? No. Historically speaking, of course. I don't have much faith in Wadlow and also the fact that this movie is coming out in a jam packed summer. And it's also rated R. It will most likely get lost in the shuffle. And what's more, this movie is no Django, sir. Django was highly anticipated, it was QTs first film coming off of his most successful film, it had hot button issues like violence, slavery, and racism, and it starred TWO Oscar winners in the lead roles. Oh and the movie itself is Oscar nominated. That's why it's been a huge part of the public discussion lately. KickAss2 is none of those things and its certainly no Django. The only thing people will be talking about is how far Jim Carrey has fallen

@TheDudeRises - Don't sell Kick Ass 2 short. The first movie was a great film. I loved Django! Great film. Genius. So was Kick Ass. Django dealt with hot button issues, but it was also funny, overly violent, action filled, fun to watch and somewhat unexpected. Kick Ass dealt with a regular kid that saw the way people acted towards each other and decided to become a superhero to do something about it. This lien said volumes about today's society, where many would film some old lady getting KOed on their phones rather than help her out.

Dave Lizewski/Kick-Ass: The three assholes, laying into one guy while everybody else watches? And you wanna know what's wrong with me? Yeah, I'd rather die... so bring it on!

Kick Ass was funny, overly violent, more action filled, more fun to watch and very unexpected. Kick Ass didn't have the same level of A-listers cast, but it was an undeniably genius movie. If Kick Ass 2 can match it or surpass it, it may be one of the best movies of the year. The only movies I want to see more than KA2 are Man of Steel and Iron Man 3. Thor 2 comes right after.

My 2013 list:

Man Of Steel
Star Trek 2
Kick Ass 2
The Wolverine
Thor 2
Iron Man 3

Have my doubts about the sequel. Hope I'm wrong though.

The biggest superhero is here.
I'm talking about the dog of course.

Looks like a green screen, even though I know it isn't. Too much light

It takes place in nyc but they filmed in canada
Notice theres a sign for a toronto music store

I hope Jim Carrey plays the character, and not.... Jim Carrey.

2013 is looking good for comic book movies.
