Kingsman: the Golden Circle

With every awesome addition to the cast of Kingsman: The Golden Circle, we ask, “Could this cast get any better?” And then another fantastic actor joins the lineup. So if we just continue saying that after every casting announcement, it shouldn’t be long before Tom Hardy and Tom Cruise and Charlize Theron join this thing, right? That day isn’t today, but the Kingsman sequel does have another very cool addition: Jeff Bridges.

Last month it was rumored that Elton John just might have a role in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, which already features a pretty killer lineup of talent, including Julianne Moore and Channing Tatum. It’s been a bit quiet on the Kingsman front since Tatum’s casting, but Elton John has officially confirmed his involvement with the sequel via a delightful new teaser poster.

As if the cast of Kingsman: The Golden Circle couldn’t get any better, Channing Tatum has up and joined the cast of Matthew Vaughn’s sequel to 2015’s breakout action hit. Tatum made the announcement via Twitter, where he also shared a teaser poster hinting at his part in the upcoming film, which also recently added Game of Thrones favorite Pedro Pascal.

It’s a little bit funny, this feeling inside, that Kingsman: The Golden Circle is going to be kind of awesome.

From the moment he first appeared on screen, Pedro Pascal was an instant favorite on Game of Thrones, and while we won’t be seeing him on the hit HBO series again, he could very well become an instant favorite in another franchise — the actor formerly known as the Red Viper is joining Kingsman: The Golden Circle, where he’ll hopefully show off more of those deadly sword skills.

Kingsman: The Secret Service was the big sleeper hit of 2015, its nihilistic sense of black humor and highly stylized action resonating with a surprisingly large audience. Naturally, a sequel couldn’t have been far off, and while director Matthew Vaughn has already confirmed that he’ll write and direct a follow-up for release on June 16, 2017, basic details have yet to come to light...
