Since its release date was pushed back a couple of months ago, things have fallen pretty quiet on the Kick-Ass 2 front lately as Mark Millar and John Romita, Jr.'s costumed crime-fighters take a back seat to A-list superheroes Iron Man, Superman and Wolverine. However, Universal has now released an international trailer for the Jeff Wadlow-directed sequel, and while we've already seen most of it in the first red band trailer, there are a few snippets of new footage here and there to tide us over until the marketing campaign kicks in properly ahead of the film's release in August. Check it out after the official synopsis...

Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010's irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2. After Kick-Ass' (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol. When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation. 

When we last saw junior assassin Hit Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world's first superhero team with Mindy. Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit Girl, she's forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes. 

Just as they start to make a real difference on the streets, the world's first super villain, The Mother F%&*^r, assembles his own evil league and puts a plan in motion to make Kick-Ass and Hit Girl pay for what they did to his dad. But there's only one problem with his scheme: If you mess with one member of Justice Forever, you mess with them all. 


Kick-Ass 2 is set for release on August 14th with a cast that also includes the returning Clark Duke as Marty / Battle Guy, Lyndsy Fonseca as Katie Deuxma and Yancy Butler as Angie D'Amico, while newcomers include Donald Faison (Scrubs) as Doctor Gravity, Lindy Booth (The Philanthropist) as Night Bitch, John Leguizamo (Spawn) as Javier, Robert Emms (Broken) as Insect Man, Andy Nyman (Black Death) as The Tumour, Daniel Kaluuya (Black Mirror) as Black Death, Augustus Prew (The Borgias) as Ass-Kicker, Morris Chestnut (The Call) as Marcus Williams, Claudia Lee (Hart of Dixie) as Brooke and Ukrainian bodybuiler Olga Kurkulina as Mother Russia.
