As you can see from the above image tweeted by the films star Taron Egerton it features Harry Harts trademark pair of glasses with one of the eyes missing.
In the first instalment, Harry seemingly met his end at the hands of Samuel L. Jackson’s tech-tycoon Richmond Valentine, who was hell-bent on sending the world into a violent, deathly rage leaving behind a specifically selected elite.
“Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated”, the poster reads. Although there are many movies about spies out there and British spies aren’t something new, Kingsman managed to combine good quality comedy with well-played action and overall the movie raised the bar for future spy movies. His portrayal of super-suave spy mentor went down incredibly well with critics and cinemagoers two years ago, with fans eager to see the Academy Award-winner in a light-hearted and comedic role. He joins the returning star Taron Egerton in the sequel to the $415 million-grossing sleeper hit. They’ll need to work together in order to defeat Poppy (Julianne Moore). Vaughn is co-writing the script with Jane Goldman. But, then came this very early teaser poster, which not only formally introduces the film, but also teases the return of someone we never thought would be coming back.
