Following the success Kingsman: The Secret Service, it’s no surprise we’re getting a sequel. That follow-up will introduce us to the American equivalent of Taron Egerton’s Eggsy, with the likes of Halle Berry, Pedro Pascal, Channing Tatum, and Jeff Bridges joining the throng. And Colin Firth’s back too, with Julianne Moore as the villain.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘In “Kingsman: The Golden Circle,” our heroes face a new challenge. When their headquarters are destroyed and the world is held hostage, their journey leads them to the discovery of an allied spy organisation in the US called Statesman. These two elite secret organizations band together to defeat a ruthless common enemy, in order to save the world, something that’s becoming a bit of a habit for Eggsy…’
A new trailer for the movie has been released, which you can take a look at below, along with a selection of new character posters. It’ll be in cinemas in September. [Read more…]
Starring: Matt Damon, Tian Jing, Willem Dafoe, Andy Lau, Pedro Pascal
Kingsman was a bigger success than most had expected. It was more than enough to get it a sequel, which will be released later this year. Along with the return of British agents Taron Egerton and Colin Firth (yes, he will return), we will be introduced to the Statesmen, the US version of the Kingsmen.
With China now the second biggest market for movies in the world and Chinese companies investing heavily in film, Hollywood is on the lookout for ways to tap in the Middle Kingdom’s money. There’s also Legendary Pictures – makers of Godzilla and The Dark Knight Movies – which was bought by Chinese investors. That’s helped result in The Great Wall, which star Matt Damon but takes us into Chinese history and one of its most iconic structures.
