Daftar Hotel - Chloe Grace Moretz did about six months of training to play the pint-sized assassin “Hit Girl” in the superhero/comedy “Kick-Ass,” including working with gymnasts, ballerinas, martial artists and attending circus school.
Hotel di Bali The role of “Kick-Ass,” on the other hand, required a different sort of preparation.
“I wasn’t allowed to go to the gym,” said Aaron Johnson, who plays the high schooler-turned-mediocre superhero, on the red carpet Thursday before a screening of the film at AMC River East in Chicago. Director “Matthew Vaughn wanted a weedy, ordinary-looking kid.”
As for the film’s controversial title, the 19-year-old British actor said he didn’t know what to expect when he was first handed the script.
“Sometimes when you get a funny title, you think ‘There’s no way I want to read this,’ but this kind of intrigued me,” he said. “I opened it and thought it was funny right away.”
Moretz, 13, said her mom read the script before she did (after all, it’s a rated R movie). The “(500) Days of Summer” actress knew she wanted to play “Hit Girl” immediately after she took a look at it for herself.
“She told me it was a really amazing character and different than any other kid’s role.” Moretz said on the red carpet. “I read it and I was like, ‘I have to be Hit Girl.’”
Johnson and Moretz will be appearing at Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo (C2E2) at McCormick Place along with co-star Christopher Mintz-Plasse (a.k.a. McLovin from "Superbad") on Friday, the same day the movie opens.
