New KICK-ASS 2 Set Photo Features Aaron Taylor-Johnson Suited Up As 'Big Daddy'

In another departure from the comic book series by Mark Millar (Nemesis) and John Romita Jr. (Captain America), a behind-the-scenes photo Tweeted earlier today by Christopher Mintz-Plasse features Aaron "Kick-Ass" Taylor-Johnson in a re-purposed Big Daddy suit!

As filming on Jeff Wadlow's Kick-Ass 2 nears an end this week, Christopher Mintz-Plasse has Tweeted the following photo to celebrate the landmark date and it may reveal a little more than originally intended! Big Daddy's costume was already spotted enclosed in a case and it's rumoured that Nicolas Cage will appear in flashbacks, but this actually shows Aaron Taylor-Johnson wearing a modified version of the suit in what we can safely assume is his final battle with Red Mist/The Mother-[frick]er. Not a major change from the source material, but definitely a notable one.

Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010’s irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2.

When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloe Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.

STARRING:

Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Kick-Ass
Chloë Grace Moretz as Hit-Girl
Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Red Mist
Jim Carrey as Colonel Stars
Donald Faison as Doctor Gravity

There is always one in these Kick-Ass 2 stories, lol.

aduder - 11/19/2012, 2:37 PM

Christopher Mintz-Plasse looks like a fat gimp..in a good way.

Reasonnnn - 11/19/2012, 2:44 PM

Chloe, hit me up in 3 years, or now. Your choice!

ManofSteel23 - 11/19/2012, 2:45 PM

they arent doing the rape scene

Parker2017 - 11/19/2012, 2:53 PM

@Superman2013 really? oh thats good to here, both comic & Film are both different anyways so I'm excited to see what they will do,and Matthew Vaugh did hand pick the new director for KA2.

SpideyQuad - 11/19/2012, 3:23 PM

Who got raped, kick asses girlfriend? Just a guess

KnobGoblin - 11/19/2012, 3:39 PM

Why is Kick Ass wearing Big Daddy's costume?

LegacyFilms - 11/19/2012, 4:01 PM

@ SpideyQuad In the comics, she never became his girlfriend, but yes.

DrRockso - 11/19/2012, 4:20 PM

She's his Yoko

sameoldthing - 11/19/2012, 4:46 PM

The comics & movies should have some changes..makes it more interesting.
Same shit=SHIT.

davidcub - 11/19/2012, 4:58 PM

That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard! ^^^

Bread - 11/19/2012, 5:33 PM

Did red mist get fat? or is it another actor?

I know there's a really fat guy in the comics that is one of The MotherF*ckers top henchman so maybe it's that character and all of them wear the same costumes?

ComradeGrey - 11/19/2012, 8:32 PM

DeadPunisher, Mintz-Plasse has a round face and he's leaning his gut out in this shot.

staypuffed - 11/19/2012, 8:37 PM

Kick-Ass 2 had rape? Well, I hope it wasn't just a extreme damsel in distress scene cause that's [frick]ing retarded. I'm curious as to why Kick-Ass is wearing Big Daddy's costume ... maybe they were just mucking about. Look at Red Mist, he looks [frick]ing weird!

SuperSomething616 - 11/20/2012, 2:31 AM

@ TheDukeOfNY - Cause Hit-Girl likely loans it to him for the body armour aspect...also the belt has a KA on now and now BD...

StSharp - 11/20/2012, 7:14 PM

I hate the "rocknroll" take on Red Mist's new costume, its so lame! And Kick-Ass wearing Big Daddy's costume never happened...but I hope it works!

wearethewalkingdead9 - 11/22/2012, 5:18 AM

@hope420, i didnt say "i hope the rape scene is in this" i said "i hope the rape scene isn't in this" like ive said on every other kick ass 2 article hoping that someone can confirm that it wont be in the movie.

sameoldthing - 11/22/2012, 2:39 PM

@davidcub
If you want the comic story..READ THE COMIC.
Movies should touch on all the major points but give viewers fresh material.

Nolan Batman movies did this,it keeps the characters from becoming stale.
