Despite earlier discussions about Kingsman 3 (currently titled Kingsman: The Blue Blood) being the franchiseโ€™s next cab off the ranks, the forthcoming instalment will now be The Kingโ€™s Man: The Traitor King.

Picking up where the Ralph Fiennes-led prequel left off โ€” more specifically where its mid-credit scene left off โ€” weโ€™ll be following the fictionalised rise of Adolf Hitler (portrayed by David Kross), executed in a way only director Matthew Vaughn can.

โ€œThe next one, it is about the rise of Hitler, and how Hitler did come to power and basically was supported by the English aristocracy,โ€ Vaughn recently told Colliderโ€˜s Maggie Lovitt at New York Comic-Con.

โ€œSo I was like, โ€˜Well thatโ€™s interesting.โ€™ And how the world was worrying so much about Communism, that Fascism rose up.โ€

โ€œAnd I look at the world at the moment, everyone getting distracted and worrying about this [and that] and if you worry too much about [this] bad things can happen here. So it is a story that I think needs to be recalled.โ€

He added: โ€œThe Kingโ€™s Man was originally meant to be a TV series and I got persuaded to make it as a film. What we wanted to do was something like The Crown but with espionage and a bit of a Kingsman hit going through all of the decades.โ€

According to Matthew Vaughn, The Kingโ€™s Man: The Traitor King has been completely written and โ€œitโ€™s pretty cool.โ€ Updates to come.

The same can be said for Kingsman: The Blue Blood. Although its current project status remains something of a mystery; by last reports, cameras were scheduled to begin rolling in September 2022.

Both Vaugh and Taron Egerton, who portrays Gary โ€œEggsyโ€ Unwin/Galahad Jr, have indicated The Blue Blood will mark the final chapter for the latterโ€™s lead character, and Colin Firthโ€™s Harry Hart/Galahad Sr.

โ€œIโ€™m really not allowed to say anything, but there is a script,โ€ Taron Egerton said back in 2019.

โ€œItโ€™s a really neat idea. That plan, at the moment, is that weโ€™d like to do another one, one more time.โ€

Egerton continued: โ€œAll good things come to an end. It was always imagined as a trilogy and I think itโ€™d be great to finish the story off because Iโ€™ve loved playing the character.โ€
