Christopher Mintz-Plasse Kick Ass 2 Interview
Question: Have you been reading the sequel as Mark’s been publishing it?
Christopher Mintz-Plasse: Yeah. I haven’t seen the new one.
Do you look at it and go, “Oh, god, please…”?
Mintz-Plasse: Please make this movie!
Cause what a role they’ve given me.
Mintz-Plasse: Yeah! I talked to Matthew and he’s like, “I don’t know if I would ever direct it, but I would definitely be on board to produce it. And I’ve thought, Eli Roth would be such a cool director for this. Or someone who hasn’t done a comic book movie but gets horror ‘cause it’s very violent. Very bloody. But Chloe’s working up a storm, man. She’s non-stop. So, who knows if we’ll ever do it? I know I would love to, and I think Aaron would love to. I’m sure Chloe would, but we’re all just kind of busy right now.
