Yeah Chloe is one girl whos gunna grow up to be the next big thing in movies. She already is huge but once shes 18, her roles are just going to get better and better.

BTW Rappy have you seen Hick? It's easily her best performance yet as a actress.

From other comments made by Mark Millar, Kick-Ass 2 will incorporate the Hit Girl comics as well as the actual Kick-Ass 2 comics into one movie.

So far Hit Girl comics are just fantastic, and the Kick-Ass 2 comics was a excellent (and even more violent) read.

BRING IT ON :D

Jim Carrey May Join KICK-ASS 2 as Colonel Stars

Universal reportedly wants Jim Carrey to join the ass kicking in director Jeff Wadlow?s Kick-Ass 2. The sequel to Matthew Vaughn?s 2010 original film adaptation of the Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. comic already features returning cast members Aaron Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz, Nicolas Cage and Christopher Mintz-Plasse. Carrey is being sought to play the role of Colonel Stars, a founding member of Justice Forever who recruits heroes to the crime fighting group.

After yesterday?s news that Universal was courting Jim Carrey for Jeff Wadlow?s Kick-Ass 2, now Lindy Booth (Dawn of the Dead) is in talks to star as yet another hero. Carrey was sought to play Colonel Stars, who forms the heroic team, Justice Forever. While Carrey may not take the role, Booth is currently in negotiations to star as the Night Bitch, a member of Justice Forever.

Kick-Ass 2, which features the return of stars Aaron Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, stars filming next month in Toronto and New York. Hit the jump for more on Booth, Night Bitch and a recap of the casting so far.

night-bitch-kick-ass-2Heat Vision reports that Booth is in talks to play Night Bitch, a hero who joins Justice Forever after being inspired by Kick-Ass and hopes to avenge the murder of her sister. With the inclusion of Colonel Stars (which only has a slim chance of being played by Carrey, according to the report) and now the potential casting of Night Bitch, it seems as if Justice Forever is going to play a central part to the storyline. It?s possible we?ll get to see the group take on a human trafficking organization, similar to a storyline in the comics.

According to his official website, actor/writer/director Andy Nyman has been cast in Jeff Wadlow's Kick-Ass sequel as The Tumor (Tumour?), one of the members of the super-villain team, The Toxic Mega-****s.

Nyman may not be very familiar Stateside, but he has starred in movies such as Dead Babies, Severance, and the brilliant E4 horror satire Dead Set. Jeff Wadlow will direct Kick-Ass 2, which will begin shooting this September in Toronto and London. Aaron Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Nicholas Cage are all set to return. We still don't know who will play "Mother Russia", but expect a bit of news on that soon enough.

Kick-Ass 2 is set to begin filming any day now, and with all the rest of the film's key players confirmed and in place, director Jeff Wadlow has dropped a rather significant hint that Jim Carrey will be among them.

The director took to Twitter over the weekend to reveal that the role of the Colonel has been cast, before dropping a nudge-nudge wink-wink reference to a certain rubber-faced star.

?6 days till we start shooting?" said Wadlow through the social networking site, "and we officially have our Colonel. Alrighty f?n then!? That'll be Carrey's catchphrase from Ace Ventura, right there. We'd say that's as close to a confirmation as it comes.

Carrey will be playing Colonel Stars, a gruff ex-military man in charge of recruiting and leading Justice Forever, a kind of rag-tag Justice League formed by the comic-book's motley collection of heroes. He also has ties to the mob gang run by Frank D'Amico, although he left organised crime many years ago in order to have a crack at fighting it.

It sounds like a less comedic role than Carrey's usual metier, and we reckon he's an exciting choice for the part. Co-starring Aaron Johnson, Chloe Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Kick-Ass 2 will open in the UK on 19 July 2013.

Kick-Ass 2 is rumoured to have added renowned bodybuilder Olga Kurkulina to its cast.

ComicBookMovie reports that the weightlifter has joined the Jeff Wadlow-helmed sequel as Mother Russia, the hulking bodyguard of Red Mist.

Wadlow previously teased the character with a photograph posted on his Twitter account, showing Red Mist actor Christopher Mintz-Plasse beside an unidentified powerhouse.

Kick-Ass 2 sees Mintz-Plasse, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chlo? Moretz and Nicolas Cage reprise their original roles.

Jim Carrey, Lyndsy Fonseca, Yancy Butler, Donald Faison, John Leguizamo, Lindy Booth and Andy Nyman have also joined the cast.

Really just wanted an excuse to post her pic ;)

But Lindsay Booth, this uber hot redhead, will be playing the role of Night-Bitch.

Night Bitch is one of the new superheroes that was inspired by Kick-Ass and the rise of the other Superheroes. She claims that the main driving force behind what she does was the murder of her sister, who was then found in a dumpster.

Her identity is currently secret and given that a few heroes have lied about theirorigins in the past, hers is also questionable. Armed with a long pole that matches the colour of her costume, she joined Justice Forever and participated in their first mission, to shut down a human trafficking organization.

    • Microsoft finally launches WSL Containers in public preview by David Uzondu Microsoft has announced that WSL containers, a feature that allows developers to run Linux containers natively inside Windows without the need for Docker Desktop, is now available in public preview several weeks after Microsoft previewed it at Build 2026. To use the new container feature, you first have to install the latest pre-release version of the Windows Subsystem for Linux by running a quick update command in your terminal: wsl --update --pre-release After installing, you'd get access to the new Linux container CLI (wslc.exe) and the programmable API. Microsoft said that the CLI has a "familiar format" that matches the toolsets developers already use every day. If you know standard Docker commands, your muscle memory will translate directly to wslc.exe, which even features a built-in alias called container.exe. You can quickly run a full Ubuntu KDE desktop container by exposing ports, or pass your graphics card straight into a machine learning environment to run PyTorch workloads. Passing the --gpus all flag inside the run command instantly links your hardware. Image via Microsoft As for the API, developers can now embed Linux container operations directly inside native Windows applications without exposing the command line to users. The team integrated the API directly into MSBuild and CMake, so developers can define container steps directly in project files. Apart from bringing the CLI and API into public preview, Microsoft also said that it's working on a new default file system called virtiofs to speed up file transfer rates between Windows and Linux. Microsoft also introduced an experimental networking mode named consomme, which resolves compatibility issues with corporate VPNs by routing Linux network traffic straight through Windows. One thing to note about WSL containers is that they don't run in your standard WSL distributions; instead, every application and CLI session spawns its own lightweight Hyper-V utility VM in the background. This basically reduces the chances of one app snooping on the container of another app.
    • Google reportedly limited Meta's Gemini access over limited AI compute by Karthik Mudaliar Google is reportedly limiting Meta's use of its Gemini AI models after Meta tried buying more computing capacity than even Google could supply. According to the Financial Times, Google told Meta in March that it could not provide the full Gemini capacity that Meta had requested. This shortfall even disrupted and delayed some of Meta's internal projects. Due to this, Meta even told its employees internally to use AI tokens more efficiently. Meta wasn't the only one to get hit by this sudden refusal by Google; even other customers were affected. But Meta was hit harder because of its unusually high demand for Google's models. The move from Google makes it evident that companies all over are in limited supply of both infrastructure and compute. Alphabet said in April that Google Cloud revenue grew 63% year-over-year to $20 billion in the first quarter, helped by enterprise AI infrastructure and AI solutions. In pursuit of more compute, Meta had earlier signed a multi-billion-dollar AWS agreement as well as a large AMD GPU deal for AI data centers. But the crunch would be short-lived as both Meta and Google have also ramped up infrastructure investments heavily. Meta said in November that it was committing more than $600 billion in the U.S. by 2028 for AI technology, infrastructure, and workforce expansion. In the first quarter of this year, Meta also raised its expected capital expenditure for 2026 to a range of $125 billion to $145 billion, citing higher component pricing and additional data center costs for future capacity. However, this doesn't make the company immune to the current dependence on outside suppliers. Meta has also spent many years promoting Llama as an open-weight alternative to closed models from Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic. But if the reported reliance on Google's Gemini models is severe enough for internal work to get impacted, then it looks like even frontier labs and Big Tech aren't fully self-sufficient.

    • I like to reminisce about the good old days, way back in autumn 2025 when building a gaming machine was fun and the drives were about $150 when you caught a deal. Yes duh, back in the day we had it gone. Then baby Skynet came along, hiding in AI datacenters demanding more processing power until it reached singularity. End of a not totally fictional story.
    • My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
