Director Matthew Vaughn’s third film, Kingsman, is set to complete the storyline of Gary “Eggsy”Unwin, also known as Galahad, played by Taron Egerton.
In the latest episode of Jess Cagle’s podcast with Julia Cunningham, British comedian Taron Egerton was asked about Kingsman 3 and revealed that filming should begin in 2023: “I understand that next year we will be filming the third part of my saga. But you know, don’t listen to what I say because I really don’t know. You know, these are adult decisions.”
Kingsman: The Blue Blood will be the title of Kingsman 3
For the record, Kingsman 3 was supposed to be filmed right after The King’s Man, a prequel/spin-off and comic book adaptation by Mark Millar, at the base before plans were changed due to Disney’s takeover of 20th Century Fox. The coronavirus pandemic then took its toll on the entire industry from 2020 as new filming was scheduled for September 2022.
“We’ve planted the seeds a few times for what’s to come in Kingsman 3 in The King’s Man,”Matthew Vaughn told Empire. “And it will be very different from other films.”He originally planned to pitch the next film to another director, but now he plans to take on the franchise himself. “I really don’t know what I want to do,” he explained. “The director has the ability to really make a difference, but I’m still thinking about it.”
