Nicolas Cage (Ugh!) has landed himself another comic book flick.He joins Aaron Johnson (pictured) and Lyndsy Fonseca for Matthew Vaughn's adaptation" of Kick-Ass" says The Hollywood Reporter.
The violent comic by Mark Millar and John Romita, Jr. centers on a high school dweeb named Dave Lizewski (Johnson) who decides to become a superhero even though he has no athletic ability or coordination. Things change when he eventually runs into real bad guys with real weapons. Fonseca plays the object of the teen's infatuation who believes Dave is gay. Cage is a former cop who wants to bring down a drug lord and has trained his daughter (Chloe Moretz) to be a lethal weapon.
While I thought Ghost Rider was a decent flick...Cage was not the reason it won me over...and I just hope he keeps his over acting to a minimum...
The independently financed project begins production this Fall in London and Toronto.
