Trailer for ‘Kingsman: The Golden Circle’ takes the spy action across the ocean

Kingsman: The Golden Circle | Official Trailer [HD] | 20th Century FOX
The success of 2015’s Kingsman: The Secret Service came as a bit of a surprise, but it was a welcome one, as director Matthew Vaughn’s R-rated spy movie offered a fresh take on a genre that had begun to grow a bit stale in recent years.

The quirky action-comedy’s critical and commercial success made a sequel a certainty, and now the first trailer for Kingsman: The Golden Circle has arrived. It features the British-based intelligence agency’s impending team-up with a similar organization based out of the U.S.

With Vaughn returning behind the camera, Kingsman: The Golden Circle has Taron Egerton’s secret agent Gary “Eggsy” Unwin (who goes by the code name of “Galahad”) uniting with Mark Strong’s agency tech expert, “Merlin,” for an adventure across the ocean. After the Kingsman headquarters is destroyed and a powerful organization calling itself “The Golden Circle” attempts to hold the world hostage, the remaining Kingsman agents find themselves allied with the colorful agents of the American-based spy group Statesman.

Among the Statesman agents making their debut in the film are Channing Tatum as Tequila and Pedro Pascal as Whiskey (aka Jack Daniels), with Jeff Bridges’ Champagne leading the organization and Halle Berry’s Ginger serving as the group’s tech support.

The two organizations will have to find common ground in their pursuit of The Golden Circle, which is led by Poppy, a criminal mastermind played by Julianne Moore, with help from her powerful bodyguard played by Vinnie Jones.

Also returning from the first film is Sophie Cookson as Kingsman agent Roxanne “Roxy” Morton (aka Lancelot), Edward Holcroft as rejected Kingsman trainee Charlie Hesketh, Samantha Womack as Eggsy’s mother, and Hanna Alström as Princess Tilde of Sweden. And in a surprise return, Colin Firth is shown in the trailer to be reprising his role as Harry Hart, the Kingsman agent who recruited Eggsy. Elton John is also expected to make a cameo in the movie.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle is based on a script penned by the first film’s writing team of Vaughn and Jane Goldman. The film is scheduled to hit theaters September 22.

What’s new on Peacock in November 2024

If you're looking for an escape from wall-to-wall coverage of the U.S. presidential election, you aren't going to find that on Peacock. Between Saturday Night Live's election special and NBC news coverage, the election is going to be just as prevalent on the streamer as it is on network TV. The good news is that Peacock also offers a lot of entertainment value in November, including the streaming premiere of Universal's biggest live-action hit of summer 2024: Twisters.

Additionally, Peacock is the exclusive streaming home of Yellowstone season 5, part 2, a decision that Paramount probably regrets years after the fact. Peacock is also debuting an original action thriller, The Day of the Jackal, as a series starring Fantastic Beasts' Eddie Redmayne and No Time To Die's Lashana Lynch. As for movies, the Jurassic Park films, the first four Jason Bourne flicks, the Back to the Future trilogy, and a few of the Fast and Furious sequels are back on Peacock at least through the end of November.

30 years ago, New York City went dark and NBC’s Must See TV shined brightly
5 friends light candles in Friends.

"Crossover" is a word that has somehow lost its power in recent years. The dawn of the Marvel Cinematic Universe as an entertainment machine and even stuff like the Super Smash Bros. Brothers franchise have sort of deprived this ambitious word of the impact it once had. Seeing multiple characters from different origins coming together isn't necessarily as exciting as it once was -- even if an Avengers: Endgame still has the power to fire us up. Crossovers weren't exactly novel in '90s television either, especially within shows of the same network. Back in 1994, though, a particularly impressive stunt aired on prime-time television, as NBC sought to use every sitcom in its "Must See TV" Thursday lineup to create something that was even more elusive back then, even among the same network's titles: synergy.
