Jonathan Ross's wife has caused outrage with a film she has written featuring a foul-mouthed girl assassin.

Critics fear Jane Goldman's film Kick-Ass, which will carry a 15 certificate, blurs the lines between adult and child entertainment.

One of the characters in the film is an 11-year-old called Hit-Girl who slices people's legs off and shoots bullets through a man's cheek.

Chloe Moretz, the 13-year-old American actress who plays the role of the young serial killer screams at her victims: 'Okay, you c****, let's see what you can do now.'

In another scene the character tells her vigilante father that she wants a puppy for her birthday.

When he looks surprised she says: 'I'm just f****** with you, Daddy,' and asks for a razor-sharp knife instead.

The film's extreme violence has earned it comparisons with the work of Quentin Tarrantino.

It is expected to gain a 15 rating in the UK but its violent trailer is already available on the internet.

Frank Furedi, professor of sociology at Kent University, criticised the film industry for not distinguishing between what is suitable for children and adults.

'This promotes the idea that infantilising adulthood is okay and that we are no longer expected to draw lines between us and kids,' he said.

Kick-Ass, which is out in April, has already sparked a number of complaints in the U.S. after children were allowed to access violent trailers of the film online.

'These particular trailers are even worse than normal because they depict a child and so are more interesting to a child,' Nell Minow, a lawyer and one of the complainants, told The New York Times last week.

'Isn't there a limit to what we can ask children to do on screen?'

When asked by one US interviewer about the suitability of an 11-year-old using the word 'c***', Goldman said: 'I think that's the least of our worries.'

In an interview, Moretz said of her character: 'She's an assassin, but at the same time she is still just an 11-year-old girl. She doesn't know any better; it's just how she was raised.'

Commenting on the film, Robert Thompson, professor of popular culture at Syracuse University in New York state, said: 'It's still enough of a real taboo that when you hear some of those words coming out of the mouth of an 11-year-old kid, it's really shocking. But that's the whole point.'

Los Angeles media ­analyst Mike Raia added: 'One of the joint ­production companies involved is Plan B, which is owned by Brad Pitt.

'I wonder if he and Angelina Jolie would want their own young children to hear kids cussing in Kick-Ass.'

Protests about the film's profanities have already erupted in Australia where the country's Family Association's spokesman John Morrisey said: 'The language is offensive and the values inappropriate – without the saving grace of the bloodless victory of traditional superheroes.'

The film is based on a comic book series that is advertised with the slogan 'sickening violence: just the way you like it'.

Outrage over the film comes as a Government report last week highlighted the unsuitable images to which children are routinely exposed.

The report condemned the exposure of children to pornography and violence, and called for stricter controls on the increased use of 'sexualised imagery' in advertising.

Goldman's husband Jonathan Ross is no stranger to controversy.

Ross was widely criticised in October 2008 after he and the comedian Russell Brand made obscene calls to Andrew Sachs, the former Fawlty Towers actor.

Ross announced in January that he would not be renegotiating his contract with the BBC when it ends in July.

Goldman met Ross when she was a young newspaper columnist and married him when she was just 18 before going on to forge a successful career as a television presenter, author and screenwriter.
