Aaron Johnson thinks his Kick Ass costume made him look like a 'gummy bear'.
The actor takes on the central role in Matthew Vaughn's comic book movie which, despite the controversy, has been a huge critical hit.
Speaking to MTV the actor said:"The more ridiculous I looked, the better.
"I always think I looked like a green gummy bear... a 'green condom' is what I get called quite a bit. It was a good laugh.
"I enjoyed the idea of this kid being unique and original and he thinks he's really cool."
And Johnson has admitted that he would love to make a sequel, hinting that Hit Girl should teach Kick Ass how to fight.
"You can't make him some crazy superhero who's going to be strong. Maybe Hit Girl can help Kick-Ass train because he definitely needs to know how to fight."
Kick Ass is a change of pace for Johnson who shot to fame playing a young John Lennon in biopic picture Nowhere Boy, which was released last year.
Up next for the young actor is Chatroom, which is currently in post production.
