Power Ranking Every 2017 Comic Book Movie By Hype
8. Kingsman: The Golden Circle
Release: 16th June
Having made a relatively huge $414m at the box office, KIngsman: The Secret Service made it impossible for Matthew Vaughn and Mark Millar not to make their promised sequel. Even with Colin Firth's character apparently killed off. The band of unlikely secret agents will this time head to America to meet their Yanky counterparts.
The Selling Point:
The original was as great and as unique as Kick-Ass was when it came out, and while Firth might be listed as deceased, there's a big hint he's coming back in some capacity, which is no bad thing. And Taron Egerton is very good.
It's also quietly amassed a great cast, with Jeff Bridges, Julianne Moore, Halle Berry, Channing Tatum and Pedro Pascal all coming in. That is a hell of a roster of talent.
The Concerns:
The only other Mark Millar sequel sunk precisely because they dialled up the silliness and the outrageous content too high, which must be tempting with Kingsman too. Hopefully the fact that Matthew Vaughn stuck around for the sequel might curtail that somewhat.
Oh aye, and Vinnie bloody Jones is in it.
