Kick-Ass To Premiere at 2010 SXSW Film Festival

South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Conference and Festival announced this morning that it will host the official premiere of Matthew Vaughn‘s big screen adaptation of Mark Millar‘s comic Kick-Ass.

Kick-Ass will be the opening night film at the 2010 SXSW Film Festival in mid-March. The first wave of films were also announced, and include Aaron Katz’s Cold Weather, Sebastian Gutierrez’s Elektra Luxx, Hubble 3D (IMAX), Wes Orshoski and Greg Olliver’s documentary Lemmy, and James Franco’s documentary Saturday Night. You can read more about all the films mentioned above, in the press release after the jump.
