IGN has posted the character posters for the upcoming Mark Millar Kick-Ass movie, and they look pretty… well, Kick-Ass!
Dave Lizewski doesn’t have superpowers, isn’t particularly strong or smart, and isn’t extraordinary in any way… aside from his desire to be a hero. Donning a scuba suit, a ski mask, and a pair of clubs, Dave hits the underworld hard in his new persona of Kick-Ass. Though not as hard — at first anyway — as they hit him when he’s severely beaten and hospitalized as a result of his first street fight. No one said being a hero was going to be easy…
When all four of the posters are joined together, they do indeed spell out Kick-Ass, which should be interesting to see on the wall in the more conservative areas of the country. What am I saying, this movie probably won’t be picked up by those theater chains at all.
The movie is scheduled to open April 16, 2010.
