‘Kingsman: The Golden Circle’ Starts Filming In The UK – As Elton John Confirms Role!

Kingsman: The Golden Circle began filming in the UK this week, with locations such as London and Birmingham on the map. Leaked set pictures show Channing Tatum looking incredibly dashing as he walks by a classic London black cab.

Not much is known about Tatum’s role in this movie, but it is highly likely he’ll be a spy.

Elton John has also confirmed a role for the movie – again, we know nothing, but we do know he posted this pretty sweet Instagram photo;

This is not only exciting because it’s Elton John, but also because John hasn’t starred in a main role of a movie since 1975 – it’s an absolutely huge deal.

Birmingham residents were treated to viewing (and hearing, loudly) the filming of stunt scenes involving a high speed chase with a black cab and gunshot fire, which startled many and had them taking to Twitter.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle is the sequel to the surprise box office hit Kingsman: The Secret Service. The first movie, staring Taron Egerton as the leading role of Eggsy,  Colin Firth as his mentor Harry Hart, and Samuel L. Jackson and Sofia Boutella staring as villains Valentine and Gazelle respectively, drew in $412, 368, 455 world-wide, as a hilariously goofy and over-the-top action/spy movie.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle will follow on from the first movie with Egerton reprising his role as Eggsy, and Mark Strong to return as Merlin, as the team have to turn to an American secret service agency for help. More on the plot details can be found here.

So far, the sequel looks to be as insane, over-the-top and wonderful as the original. Fingers crossed for an awesome follow up!
