Chloƫ Grace Moretz won't be doing Kick-Ass 3 after how Kick-Ass 2 'was handled'
ChloĆ« Grace Moretz has said that sheās no intention of returning for a third Kick-Ass movie, after how the second film āwas handledā.
Moretz reprised her role as Hit-Girl for Kick-Ass 2 in 2013, following the success of the first movie in 2010, which was adapted from Scottish writer Mark Millarās series of comic books.
But the second took a hefty panning by the critics, and also ended with an awkward kiss between Aaron Taylor-Johnsonās Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl, despite the two characters having been in a distinctly sibling type relationship through the first movie, and much of the second.
āI love the franchise, I think the first movie was really, really special,ā Moretz said at the Provincetown Film Festival (via Indiewire).
āI wish the second one had been handled in a little bit of a different way. Because I think we were all kind of looking forward to something a little different than what happened with it all.
āAs much as I love the character of Hit-Girl, I think she lives and survives in Kick-Ass, and I kind of want to keep her there.
āI kinda wanna keep everyoneās mind in Kick-Ass. So I donāt think there will be a Kick-Ass 3, at least I donāt think with Hit-Girl in it.ā
Director Matthew Vaughn reckons otherwise, however.
He recently told Empire of plans to reboot the series, with a third movie and possibly a solo Hit-Girl spin-off.
āWeāre going to reboot Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl,ā he said. āLook what Mark Millar is doing with the comic for clues.ā
Moretz is next up in Luca Guadagninoās remake of Suspiria.
