The Role: Poppy is the action sequel's arch supervillain, who will be a thorn in the side of the Kingsman and require them to recruit their U.S. counterpart, Statesman, to help bring her down.

Why You Should Be Excited: Because the first Kingsman did an insanely entertaining job with Samuel L. Jackson's villain, and there's a fair chance Moore will find a way to one-up that given that she's one of the greatest actresses working today.

Seeing her square off against not only Eggsy but new characters played by Channing Tatum and Halle Berry should be absurdly entertaining, and it goes without saying that she'll end up having a ton of outrageous quirks to make her a memorable foil.
