    Chloe Moretz Talks Hit Girl from 'Kick-Ass'

    Latino Review had the chance to talk with Chloe Moretz about her role as Hit Girl in the up coming R rated comic book adaption Kick-Ass. Moretz was in the remake of "Amityville Horror," as well as in "(500) Days of Summer." He character in that film was a stereotype included for stereotype purposes, but she made her "wise little sister" seem more necessary than it was.

    When asked what it was like to play the character, " It was a lot of fun. It was hard though. It was something that I've never done before. I got to play this character that is out of my league. It's something that I've never dabbled in before. That's really why I wanted to do it, because it was so unique." She also had to under go rigorous training to get in shape for the character, unlike her co-stars who didn't have to train at all, As for what the training was like she said " I worked with UCLA's top gymnasts and the Jackie Chan stunt crew and the '300' stunt crew and I worked with one of the top tumblers in the world and gymnasts and ballet and gymnastics. It was so hard. But it was something that I really loved because I'm very athletic."

    She also admitted she hadn't actually read the comic prior to audtioning for the role, "I hadn't. I wasn't allowed. In the comic, you know it's very violent. It's even more violent I'd say than the movie. I mean I don't chop someone's head in half in the movie." After getting the part, and not having read the comic yet, she agreed the script was very similar to the comics from what she had heard, " I read the script and the script was a lot like the comic I hear. I saw one and three of the comic but not the whole thing because I was looking at pictures."
