News on Mark Millar's Kick Ass movie - Mclovin?

Matthew Vaughn, who directed Stardusthas managed to get the cash from private investors to get the Kick-Ass movie on the roll as the studios felt it was just too violent. It follows a a 15-year-old boy named Dave Lizewski who attempts to become a real-life superhero. The catch is that he has no powers or any of the stereotypical reasons for choosing to fight crime.

Christopher Mintz-Plasse, aka McLovin from Superbad, will play a character known as Red Mist who is the angry teen son of a mobster who tries to find and uncover Kick-Ass' identity. Also starring alongside of Mintz-Plasse is Chloe Moretz, who will play a "ferocious, potty-mouthed 11-year-old who chops down crime thugs with a ninja sword."

Still no word on who will play the lead role.

Make your own McLovin Fake ID

For those fans of Superbad and, in particular, the ones who liked McLovin and his bogus driving licence then take a look here.

Yes that's right true believer, you can make your own McLovin ID and go and buy a keg of beer.

Thanks to Alan for sending me the link and also letting me use his McLovin card above. Yes ladies he is over 21!
