​With the first Kick-Ass being a runaway success back in 2010, it was inevitable that a sequel would be in the offing.

The sequel sees the self made superhero Kick-Ass join forces with a group of everyday citizens who have been inspired to fight crime in costume and take on villain Red Mist.

The film is directed Jeff Wadlow and co-produced by Matthew Vaughn, and stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloë Grace Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse reprising their roles from the first film.

A trailer to the sequel was released earlier this week and we have it for you right here.

Kick-Ass 2 releases in July.
