Taron Egerton Stays Hopeful for Kingsman Sequel

Taron Egerton, the lead actor in the Kingsman franchise, has expressed his desire to continue the series, despite recent comments from 20th Century Studios president Steve Asbell indicating that there are 'no plans' for more Kingsman films anytime soon. In an interview promoting his new Netflix movie Carry-On, Egerton stated, 'I think Matthew and I very much want to do one more,' suggesting that discussions for a sequel are still alive. The previous films, especially Kingsman: The Secret Service, were financially successful, grossing over $400 million each, while the prequel, The King's Man, performed poorly at the box office. Director Matthew Vaughn has written a sequel titled The Traitor King, which he believes addresses timely historical themes. Despite the studio's hesitance, Egerton remains optimistic about the franchise's future, hinting that a third installment could still happen.
