You know, the creator of Wanted and Kick-Ass

For a while now, Kick-Ass co-creator Mark Millar has been talking up plans to make his directorial debut with a low-budget superhero flick set and shot in Scotland.

Millar has been keeping his cards close to his chest regarding the exact details of the project however, with not-so-much as a title spilling from his lips. Until now that is, as this morning Millar exclusively sent IGN the works - title, plot, trailer news and even five pics from the shoot.

So read on for details of Millar's forthcoming feature Miracle Park, and scroll to the bottom of the page for those on-set snaps.

"Miracle Park is the directorial debut from comic-book creator Mark Millar (Kick-Ass, Wanted, Nemesis, The Ultimates).

"Set in contemporary Scotland, this dark, unique superhero story focuses on a group of animal rights activists who break into a low-level research laboratory to find a mile-long underground base owned and facilitated by the US government.

"Described as The X-Men meets Trainspotting, Miracle Park breaks all the taboos of superhero cinema and offers a completely new take on the genre.

"The movie is shot entirely on a hand-held camera, establishing a tone more consistent with Paranormal Activity or The Last Exorcism than a traditional superhero release.

"Miracle Park is chilling, violent and a totally new experience in cinema. Miracle Park starts where other superhero movies draw the line."

"Principal photography finishes at the end of October and Millar expects to be in post-production until January when the teaser trailer will be released."
