The Director of THE RAID Wanted to Make a HIT-GIRL Spinoff Movie

Director Gareth Evans has proven to be one of the most talented action movie directors that the world has to offer. He blew audiences away with The Raid movies, and his fans are eagerly waiting to see what his next film project will be. At one point in his career, though, he was a looking to direct a freakin' Kick-Ass spinoff film centering around Hit-Girl.  

While talking with IGN, comic book writer Mark Millar revealed that he had discussed a Hit-Girl spinoff film with the director, but unfortunately, due to his busy schedule it never happened. Here's what Millar said:

“Before Kick-Ass 2 came out we’d been talking about a Hit-Girl spin-off movie. We’d even talked to a director – we had a couple of calls with Gareth Evans, who I absolutely love. He’s an amazing director. But Gareth’s now busy.”

Last year, Chloë Grace Moretz said that she was done playing Hit-Girl, which makes sense as I don't think we'll ever see another Kick-Ass movie made. If Evans did ever came on board to direct a spinoff film though, I wonder if she would change her mind and jump into action. I love the character, and the thought of a spinoff film being directed by Evans is exciting as hell. I know it will never happen, but it's interesting to know that at one point it could have if the timing was right.
