‘Kingsman: The Golden Circle’ Will Feature A Deleted Scene From The Original

Speaking with Den of Geek, star (and bottomless well of charisma) Taron Egerton spoke about how pop star Elton John has a role in The Golden Circle, which leads him directly to a more interesting tidbit:
As the interviewer notes, John had a role (as himself) in an early draft of the first film’s script. Does this imply that he shot a cameo for the first film, was cut for whatever reason, and that this scene will now re-surface in part two? Considering Egerton’s train of thought in the quote above, that would certainly make sense.
Matthew knows and likes Elton, and knows that he brings something that fits the tone of the Kingsman world. I think I can say that there’s a deleted scene from the first one, that I personally thought shouldn’t have been cut, and that’s now in the second film. But what it is… I don’t think I can say.
But Elton John is only one member of an ensemble that deserves a second look. The great Julianne Moore will play the film’s villain, while Jeff Bridges, Halle Berry, Channing Tatum, and Game of Thrones and Narcos star Pedro Pascal playing members of the American spy agency “The Statesman.” Mark Strong and Sophie Cookson are set to return alongside Colin Firth, with the latter’s mere presence demanding some kind of explanation.
And before we get out of here, Egerton says that a third Kingsman movie isn’t in the works yet, but it’s certainly a thing that could happen:
Kingsman: The Golden Circle is due out in theaters on October 6, 2017.
