Taron Egerton and Mark Strong on Irish accents, THAT orange jacket and a Kingsman trilogy

Paul Moore

Suit up!

Eggsy’s back.

Everyone’s favourite street-kid-turned-super-spy is returning to the big screen and we can’t wait.

Following on from his recruitment as a Kingsman in 2014, Taron Egerton has donned his stylish specs once more as the world, yet again, finds itself in dire need of saving.

Coming along for the rip-roaring ride this time around are The Statesmen from the good ol’ U S of A, with Channing Tatum, Pedro Pascal and The Dude himself, Jeff Bridges, teaming up with their elite counterparts to try and take down an evil enemy.

To mark the release of Kingsman: The Golden Circle in Irish cinemas, we’ve sent our own gentleman spy, Paul Moore, to meet the stars of the film.

Paul may not have as many cool suits, gadgets and guns as the brilliant duo of Mark Strong (Merlin) and Taron Egerton (Eggsy), but he still managed to get some top secret information from the pair.

If you’re curious to hear how Merlin ended up in the field, what it’s like to get your head smashed in, the secret to perfecting an Irish accent and what the guys want to see from a third Kingsman film, then this chat is for you.

Oh yeah, we also got Taron’s take on *that* incredibly slick tuxedo jacket.

Manners maketh the man. Enjoy…

Get suited and booted, it’s time to check out the official trailer for Kingsman: The Golden Circle…
