While Chloe Moretz is currently undergoing training to return to the role of Hit Girl in Kick-Ass 2, the casting has yet to slow down. With a handful of members being added just about every week, the latest news comes from an actor himself.
UK actor Andy Nyman, a prominent TV actor who was also in films such as The Brothers Bloom and Death at a Funeral, updated on his official site (via Bleeding Cool) that he has joined the ensemble as a villain character called The Tumor. While not featured in Mark Millar and John Romita Jr.‘s graphic novels we can presume he’s part of the baddies known as the The Toxic Mega-Cunts.
Lindy Booth, Donald Faison, Robert Emms, Morris Chestnut and John Leguizamo make up the other newcomers to the franchise, along with director Jeff Wadlow, who is taking over for Matthew Vaughn as he helms a sequel to X-Men: First Class instead. Aaron Johnson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Nicolas Cage and Yancy Butler all return for the film arriving on June 28th, 2013.
