Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall director Jeff Wadlow sent out a tweet recently that may confirm what we've suspected for a while; that The Mask and Batman Forever actor Jim Carrey is joining the cast of the comic book sequel as 'The Colonel.'
The tweet reads: "6 days till we start shooting... and we officially have our Colonel. Alrighty f'n then!"
While he does not explicitly name Carrey, Wadlow uses the catch-phrase the comic actor made popular in the Ace Ventura: Pet Detective movies.
As we previously reported, The Colonel will be a key supporting role in the sequel. "He helps galvanize the team of misfit super heroes assembled to fight evil," quoted Wadlow to Deadline. The site stated that Carrey was being wooed for the project back in August.
With reference to the Kick-Ass comics, "The Colonel" could be Colonel Stars, whose alter-ego is Sal Bertolinni, a former mob soldier-turned-born again Christian superhero.
Original cast members Aaron Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and Nicolas Cage are all set to return for the sequel, with shooting starting in a few days. Stay tuned for any further updates.
