Kick-Ass 2 has unveiled a new international poster.
The artwork shows the stars of the film together in their superhero costumes.
Aaron Taylor Johnson, Chloe Moretz and Christopher Mintz-Plasse will return alongside newcomer Jim Carrey.
Based on Mark Millar and John Romita Jr's second miniseries, the movie sees Dave Lizewski (Taylor-Johnson) join forces with a group of civilian vigilantes to fight Mintz-Plasse's increasingly powerful The Motherf**ker.
John Leguizamo, Donald Faison, Robert Emms, Lindy Booth and Daniel Kaluuya will also feature in the Jeff Wadlow-directed sequel.
Moretz recently addressed her young character's controversially profane language in the films.
Kick-Ass 2 will be released on August 14 in the UK, and August 16 in the Us.

It makes sense that someone might want Aaron Taylor Johnson to take on a superhero role for a major comic film. He's had plenty of time as Kick-ass so it's not like he would need to prepare. Well, he will have to slip into a different personality than Dave Lizewski. Johnson is being eyed to play Quicksilver in The Avengers 2. At least he's got that whiny thing down. Dave did was kind of a bitch at times. It may not even be happening though. There are some issues involving the schedule but »

For a while there it was Guardians of the Galaxy that seemed to be summoning every single white, young, brown-haired actor to potentially play the male lead. Now it's the Godzilla reboot-- and both of them have apparently been turned down by Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Today it's Aaron Taylor Johnson's turn to be thrown into the rumor mill, with word coming that he's now the top pick from studio Legendary Pictures. That doesn't mean he's take the job though-- according to Deadline Johnson is waiting on a final draft of the script, which is currently being reworked by former Walking Dead show runner Frank Darabont. There's been a ton of information out there about Godzilla in the last few days, and not all of it good; two of the producers have left the project, and word leaked out yesterday that the story is more focused on the lead human character, »

Exclusive: Legendary Pictures is eyeing Kick-Ass star Aaron-Taylor Johnson to star in Godzilla, the Gareth Edwards-directed reboot of the franchise based on the iconic Japanese reptile. I’m told that Johnson, who starred in the Oliver Stone-directed Savages and Anna Karenina and followed by reprising in Kick-Ass 2: Balls To The Wall is the frontrunner for the job. He won’t make a final decision on whether or not to take the offer until he sees the final polish that Frank Darabont is writing based on the Max Borenstein script. Legendary’s Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni are taking the creative lead on this project — they just put Mary Parent on after she became a producer of Pacific Rim — and Warner Bros is distributing everywhere except for Japan. There, rightsholders Toho will handle the release. While there has obviously been a legal dust-up in the producing ranks, »
