Matthew Vaughn has announced that he wants to make a Hit Girl film, in hopes to jumpstart interest in more Kick-Ass films. He says he was "not happily done with the franchise".
Vaughn said, "We're working on an idea for a prequel of how did Hit Girl and Big Daddy become Hit Girl and Big Daddy. If we make that, hopefully that will be the sorbet for the people that didn't like Kick-Ass 2 and then we can go off and make Kick-Ass 3. I think we've got to do this prequel to regain the love that we had."
Hit Girl was portrayed by Chloë Grace Moretz, who was 12 at the time. Her father in the film, Nicolas Cage, portrayed the character Big Daddy, who wound up dying.
Kick-Ass earned about $96 million worldwide.
