Yea, I kind of agree. Though I'm not 100% on board for Elton John either. I think there was some impressive actors in the first film while I like Elton and Channing just fine it doesn't really fit but maybe they're both playing themselves as the
influential
people that Valentine captured but didn't implant. -

I'm honestly fine with Elton John. Because technically he really can't get a big role in this, his profession is not acting (even though he had small acting jobs where, well, as you said, he plays himself), so he's probably going to get a short cameo. His name is huge that's why the information is spreading, but yeah, I'm fully convinced he won't get more than a cameo in this, so I'm with it.
While Channing that's another story. He's apparently going to get a bigger part (he gets his own bloody poster! ugh), and he's just not a good choice for this film. Nor is he a good actor - if Vaughn gets out of him a solid performance it'll be a miracle. -

I saw, I guess it's just wishful thinking. I liked Harry, Eggsy, Merlin and Roxy so much in the first one I don't want them to be elbowed to the back burner for newbies.
Though, I do trust Matthew Vaughn to make another fun action packed spy movie, so I'm still excited regardless of all the casting news. -

Yes, yes, yes! Exactly! I totally agree. I'm in for the original characters that are left from the first feature, I don't want a new character to get a bigger role than them. Just no. Why put aside the other characters to give space to a new one when everyone's attached to the originals and is going to see the sequel for them.
I'm with you, I'm really putting all my trust in Vaughn and I hope he maintains the quality of the first film. -

Yea, for sure. It can just be a little overwhelming when there are so many new cast members. There's a pretty big spotlight to share, but I'm greedy for my favourites.
Now just watch, after The Golden Circle I'm going to want a spinoff of the new characters and it's be a bigger franchise than Bond. Haha! -

actually The Golden Circle will probably be the villains in this, and given the second poster, the title looked to be a nod to The Knights of the Golden Circle, which was a secret society formed in the 1850s that advocated the Secession of the Southern States and the war to acquire addition territories from Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean to create a super slave holding nation for the wealthy. When the civil war didn't pan out of them many went on to form the Ku Klux Klan(the ku Klux part of the name is a corruption of the greek word kuklos which means Circle)

I just saw! Holy ****, I'm so not happy about this. The casting news has been great up until now.
Yeah. It made me go "What? But why? It won't fit with the rest of the cast", I have a feeling he's going to stand out like a sore thumb. Don't get me wrong, I like Tatum. Just don't see him fitting into this film. -

Well, many don't fit in the roles they are given in the Kingsman film(s) but that's why it's great, because Vaughn makes it work. The problem with Tatum is (and I have nothing against him as a person) that he cannot act. He's going to stand out so very badly because of his lack of acting skills. What we need to hope here is that Vaughn manages to make him do a decent performance.

Yeah, because a film filled with stars needs him to get more money. But if you want a good looking guy who would draw women to the cinema, there are Tom Hiddleston, Tom Hardy, Chris Pine, for example.
The second part of your comment is just plain stupid. If you can't make a decent argument defending your hero, why bother at all? Oh. Wait. -

My "hero"? I've never really typed this before, but "LOL". I don't even like the guy, but he can bring people to see this movie that may otherwise not be interested. It's just common sense. He's a hotter name than the 3 guys you just mentioned. We don't even know yet, he may not have a big part in this film.

his box office appeal is way overstated, he's in Hail Cesar, but that movie floppedand Jupiter Ascending made 1/2 of what Kingsman did
this tatum guy is like a really boring himbo who will definitely be outshone by the rest of the cast with his passable-at-best acting talent and zero star factorhope he's there for a small part, so at least his fangirls will generate some buzz retweeting his publicity pics on twitterthat seems to be the only value he will bring to the movie
