The film was a massive task to complete for creator George Lucas and director Irvin Kirshner, with very little behind the scenes footage allowed, due to the fact …
Production on Kick-Ass 2 is well underway. We know this because writer/director Jeff Wadlow has been giving us a blow by blow account over on his twitter feed. We’ve seen everything from costume reveals to flying propane tanks, and I think we’re only a week or two away from toilet tweets. However, unless you’ve read the comic, you would have …
