A new, international trailer for the highly anticipated Kick-Ass sequel puts the focus on Hit Girl (Chloe Moretz).

At the beginning of the trailer (it’s red band, so watch out for adult language) we see there’s an attempt to put her back into a normal life after the passing of her insane father. She attends a high school but can’t resist getting back into her normal, violent ways.

Kick-Ass 2 is directed by Jeff Wadlow and stars Moretz, Jim Carrey (as Colonel Stars and Stripes), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kick-Ass himself), and Christopher Mintz-Plasse (The Mother F***er).

The official synopsis reads as follows: The costumed high-school hero Kick-Ass joins with a group of normal citizens who have been inspired to fight crime in costume [The group is led by Carrey’s character Colonel Stars and Stripes]. Meanwhile, the Red Mist plots an act of revenge that will affect everyone Kick-Ass knows.

It opens in theaters August 16, 2013. Hit Girl was obviously one of the biggest thrills of the original Kick-Ass, so we’re looking forward to seeing the character back in action for Kick-Ass 2. And we won’t lie: We’ll miss Nicholas Cage’s Big Daddy character.
