She did suggest that she hasn’t found the right role to be part of the MCU yet, and while she says it would be fun to play another superhero, she’s more intrigued by the idea of being a part of the MCU. play super villain.
“Yeah, we talked about it a little bit. I mean, I think for me I’d be really interested in playing a villain in Marvel or DC, and playing more of the dark side of the role. I like of a superhero I think that would be really nice too, but I think it’s just about finding the one that really fits what you want to convey, and the scope of the character I think it would be really fun if it was the right role and the right project.”
Moretz hasn’t written off a Hit-Girl return either. During a performance on The Tonight Show last year, Moretz said she would be on board for… Kick Ass 3 if that ever comes together, so if the other stars of the franchise return too.
“I mean, I think I’d love to do a Kick-Ass 3. I think it would be really fun to see where Hit-Girl goes, and what she’s like as an adult. But I think it’s kind of “Perfect. I feel like it should be back together across the board Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Chris Mintz-Plasse and the whole crew… I think it would be really nice.”
