Aaron Taylor Johnson Returning for ‘Kick-Ass 3’?
The black comical superhero movie Kick-Ass will be back soon with its third installment Kick-Ass 3. The Kick-Ass series is an adaptation of the comic books like Kick-Ass, Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl and Kick-Ass 3. The first Kick-Ass movie was released in 2010 and the second was released in 2012.
The upcoming Kick-Ass 3 will be the final movie in the Kick-Ass series.
Storyline
In Kick-Ass, Dave Lizewski is a high school student who is ignored by all his school mates. He was fond of comics from where he got inspired to become a superhero. However, he had no special strength or abilities which could make him a superhero. He named himself as Kick-Ass and became an internet sensation overnight by his acts of bravery.
On the other hand, there were others who were unhappy with his achievements. One such person was the powerful gangster, Frank D’ Amico. He planned to destroy Kick-Ass completely but this never happened.
In Kick-Ass 2, a new team of masked crusaders led by Colonel Stars and Stripes was introduced. Later, Kick-Ass also joined the team.
This amateur group of superheroes had a showdown with Red Mist. He teamed up with other super villains to take on Kick-Ass and the new superhero and assassin, Hit – Girl.
According to the comic book of Kick-Ass 3, Hit – Girl would be jailed. On the other hand, Kick-Ass would continue having a dual life like Dave and continue to complete his high school. As a superhero, he will have continuous battle with a criminal organization.
However, Kick-Ass will leave no stone unturned to free Hit – Girl from the prison.
