I can’t think of any other juvenile actress who’s spent so much of her career with a gun in her hand, but Kick Ass’ Hit Girl, Chloe Moretz, is getting out the pistols once more on the first poster for her upcoming film, Hick.
Derick Martini’s (Lymelife) film is about a rural Nebraska girl, Luli (Moretz), who gets more than she bargained for when she runs away after her hick family abandons her. Luli heads to Los Angeles, meeting numerous unsavoury characters along the way. Both funny and very dramatic – in Andrea Portes’ book Luli’s life of the road involves her becoming an accessory to a robbery as well as getting raped and tied up in a motel.
It’s out in the US in May, but there’s no UK date set as yet.
