20th Century Fox has
released (via EW) the first set of images from Matthew Vaughn's Kingsman: The
Golden Circle featuring Channing Tatum as a Statesman secret agent, Halle Berry
as Ginger and Mark Strong as Merlin, Jeff Bridges as the Head of the Statesman,
and Taron Egerton as Kingsman Eggsy.
"I quite like
playing the tech nerd who can handle himself in a conflict situation," Strong
says. "But what I really like about this second film is that
Merlin meets Halle Berry’s character, who plays his equivalent role in the
Statesmen. And she had her clipboard and her glasses, just like Merlin. And
what happens when two tech nerds come together?” Strong teases, “Might there be
some geeky love?"
"Just
doing a sequel, you’re kind of violating that promise of originality.
Sequelitis is a plague I have no interest in contracting," says the director
who is known for not doing sequels, even if the first films (ex. "Kick-Ass,"
"X-Men: First Class") are successful.
"For
the first one, I felt like if I wasn’t really good then it wouldn’t work," Egerton
says. "This time, the story still unfolds through my eyes but this is
still a true ensemble piece. And also, I’ve had a bit more experience. I’m not
asking the crew what every piece of camera equipment does."
Opening in theaters
on September 29, Kingsman: The Golden Circle also stars Julianne Moore, Pedro
Pascal, Colin Firth, Vinnie Jones, Sophie Cookson, Poppy Delevingne, Elton
John, Edward Holcroft, and Hanna Alstrom.
