Mark Millar Confirms Jim Carrey As Colonel Stars In ‘KICK-ASS 2’
Well, it looks like earlier reports that Jim Carrey would be joining the cast of KICK-ASS 2 just may be true. Earlier tonight Mark Millar and Jeff Wadlow had an interesting little back and forth on Twitter revealing that the role of Colonel Stars had been filled that included some very interesting references.
With obvious references to both The Mask and Ace Ventura it appears that Carrey is indeed on board to play Colonel Stars in KICK-ASS 2. When fans asked Millar directly he would not confirm but it’s pretty damn obvious here what actor they’re referring to.
If you’re unfamiliar with the character that Carrey will be playing, Colonel Stars is an ex-thug and born again Christian who sets up Justice Forever, a superhero team that Kick-Ass joins early on in the second volume. The characters dog plays a large role in the comic but we won’t spoil that one for you.
Kick-Ass 2 hits theaters June 28, 2013.
