Kingsman 2: Oscar-winner Jeff Bridges joins The Golden Circle
"The only golden circle I want vexing me is the one my glass leaves behind on the table."
Kingsman: The Golden Circle is collecting Oscar-winners like they're Pokémon cards.
The sequel already has the talents of Julianne Moore, Halle Berry, and Elton John; alongside the returning Colin Firth, in the role of a (presumably) resurrected Harry Hart. They're also joined by Channing Tatum, who has yet to receive an Oscar; but, hey, it's early days yet.
It's now been revealed Jeff Bridges will also be climbing aboard, having won his own Oscar back in 2010 for the country music drama Crazy Heart. And, just like many of its other cast members, the actor announced his involvement through Twitter, posting an image reading; "The only golden circle I want vexing me is the one my glass leaves behind on the table."
The spy spoof follow-up to 2014's Kingsman: The Secret Service will see Taron Egerton’s Eggsy head state-side with Mark Strong’s Merlin to work for secret US spy society Statesmen. Statesmen HQ is disguised as a whisky distillery and once there, Eggsy and Merlin will be tasked with defeating the villainous Poppy, Moore.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle is set to reach UK cinemas on 16 June 2017.
