Director Matthew Vaughn’s highly anticipated sequel, Kingsman: The Golden Circle, will be released later this year with star Taron Egerton along with a roster of actors that we’re crazy excited to see in the Kingsman universe. And while we only know a little about the plot so far (a fact we’re pleased about with way too many detailed movie trailers hitting the web) Vaughn thought he’d give the world a quick taste of what we’re in for with a clip that lasts just about five seconds in what’s being called “The Ultimate Breakdown.”
Now, to be clear, this isn’t a “teaser trailer” by any means but something Vaughn cooked up to get us riled up for the film’s release later this year. And, because we here at Nerdist love analyzing things like this, we grabbed some screenshots from Vaughn’s creation to see if we could glean any plot details from it. Thankfully, in terms of plot, there’s not much to be gleaned so nothing is particularly spoiled. (Our guess is some sort of world-threatening drug developed by Moore’s character delivered via the most reliable of methods, upon the wings of butterflies)
Instead, we’re overjoyed to just sit and wonder what the following screen grabs must mean for the film. Here’s what we’re jazzed about so far, including tons of new tech. This includes robot arms, literal molten golden circles, machine gun and submarine Cars, and FREAKING ROBOT DOGS! (Also, fingers crossed for a Lebowski reference, since we see Julianne Moore, Jeff Bridges, and a bowling alley in there).
We’re seeing several new faces, namely those of the Statesmen, the Kingsmen’s American counterparts. These include Channing Tatum, Halle Berry, Bridges, and a whip-cracking Pedro Pascal (Game of Thrones).
And as if all those things weren’t enough, we also get a slew of new locations, such as Statesman Distillery HQ, and a decidedly Mayan looking jungle lair.
Before we wrap up, let’s just focus on two shots of Julianne Moore’s character Poppy being just about as maniacally happy-evil as can be. Of all the bananas things that are in store for us in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Moore as a criminal mastermind is by far the thing we’re most excited for!
What’d we miss in this rapid fire taste of Kingsman: The Golden Circle? Let’s discuss in the comments below!
