CHOCOLATE BEAR!!!

It's fair to say that I'm a little more than excited about the possibility of SCRUBS Donald Faison joining the cast of KICK-ASS 2: BALLS TO THE WALL. Currently, the actor is in negotiations to take on the role of Doctor Gravity.

Doctor Gravity is, "an English major who highlights as a superhero by night, working with Kick-Ass and Justice Forever. However, to the world at large he is a physics professor at Columbia who built a baseball bat-like pole called the "Gravity Pole" which can make something twenty times its actual weight. If he flips it around it allows him to float." There's something about the "gravity pole", but I feel if I tell you then it might give away a funny sort of spoiler.

When Faison boards the project, he will be in good company with Aaron Johnson, Chloe Moretz, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Nicolas Cage as well as new addition John Leguizamo. For those wondering about Leguizamo's role, he will be playing, "Javier, the bodyguard assigned to protect aspiring evil guy Red Mist".

The sequel is set to start shooting in September.

This is great casting. Dr. Gravity is a funny character and I think Faison will do a good job, although I would have expected a bit more of an everyman in the role. And the pole bit is pretty funny.

I kinda want to read Kick Ass 2. Except I made the mistake of reading the first one.

I hope this sequel improves on the shit source-material as well as the first one did.
