The first full trailer for Matthew Vaughn’s sequel to the hugely entertaining Kingsman: The Secret Service has arrived. Following a brief flash trailer released last week, we finally get out first proper look at Kingsman: The Golden Circle.

Released back in 2015, Kingsman was a shot in the arm to the spy movie genre and served up some bloody marvelous carnage and set pieces. Add to that a never deadlier Colin Firth, and you have the makings of a killer action franchise.

Breaking his own rule about making sequels to his own movies, Matthew Vaughn returns to direct and co-write (alongside writing partner Jane Goldman) The Golden Circle. After joining the ranks of The Kingsman, Eggsy (Taron Egerton) is now a fully paid up member of the secret organisation. In the aftermath of an attack on the UK HQ, Eggsy and Merlin (Mark Strong) journey to America for assistance from the US branch, The Statesman.

Starring Julianne Moore, Taron Egerton, Mark Strong, Halle Berry, Elton John, Channing Tatum, Jeff Bridges and the return of Colin Firth’s Harry Hart. Kingsman: The Golden Circle is released in the UK on September 22. Check out the trailer below.

In a new adventure that tests their agents’ strength and wits to the limit, 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…”
