We caught a glimpse ofChanning Tatumin the first set photos that surfaced in May, where the actor was spotted near the Kingsman tailor shop. While we don’t know for sure ifChanning Tatumis playing a Kingsman agent,Taron Egertonrevealed that he got to spend some time with the actor between takes, although he was only on set for a few weeks. Here’s what he had to say about working withChanning Tatum.

Unfortunately,Taron Egertondidn’t shed any light on the return ofColin Firth’s Harry Hart inKingsman: The Golden Circle. Writer-directorMatthew Vaughnhad teased last year that he may have a way for the character to return, despite being killed by the villainous Valentine (Samuel L. Jackson) towards the end ofKingsman: The Secret Service. While we still don’t know how he’ll come back to life,Colin Firthwas spotted on in costume, thanks to photos from the set posted by his co-starPedro Pascal.
The plot reportedly centers on Eggsy (Taron Egerton) and Merlin (Mark Strong) visiting the U.S., where they meetHalle Berry’s character and a “swaggering, sharpshooting cowboy” called Jack Daniels, played byPedro Pascal. That report also revealed the U.S. version of Kingsman is an organization known as the Statesmen, while we saw concept art ofJulianne Moore’s villainous lair, known as Poppyland. Now that filming has wrapped onKingsman 2, the wait for the first trailer begins.
