'Kick-Ass 2' Red Band Featurette

There was a time when it looked like Kick-Ass 2 might never happen, but now the film opens in just over a week. We've seen quite a few trailers, some clips, and a behind the scenes look or two. But if you want one more glimpse at the film before it opens, check out this red-band featurette. There's some new footage here for your enjoyment, as well as a bit of gore and (of course) plenty of cussin'.

Kick-Ass 2 opens on August 16.

After Kick-Ass' (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol. 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 (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.
