50 Most Anticipated Movies Of 2017 - Ranked

29. Kingsman: The Golden Circle

2017 Movies
Fox

In the grand tradition of Matthew Vaughn/Mark Millar comic book movies, Kingsman was a refreshing delight: it was different enough and fresh enough to make lots of money and offer something new even in a heavily saturated market place. And there's always something quite hard to resist about Millar and Vaughn's brand of refined vulgarity next to the straight lace of Marvel and the grumpiness of DC.

The sequel was assured as soon as the first made more than $400m, and while Colin Firth was killed off, it looks a lot like the dream team is back together (somehow), with strong additions to the cast including Pedro Pascal, Julianne Moore, Channing Tatum, Jeff Bridges and Elton John for some reason. Expect more of the same, as the surviving Kingsmen agents head to America to help our their yanky counterparts against Moore's nefarious villain. Let's just hope for better returns than the Kick-Ass sequel.

Unfortunately, they've also added Vinnie Jones to the cast, which is a sure-fire way to make everything difficult for themselves needlessly.

Release Date: October 6th
