'Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated': Get excited, Kingsman fans. Get very excited.

Anybody who has seen the brilliant and visually spectacular movie Kingsman: The Secret Service will tell you how mind-blowing the famous church massacre scene was.

Perhaps no other film has used the song Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd so aptly. The church scene, in which our favourite Kingsman secret agent goes into an uncontrollable murder rampage, is definitely one of the best action scenes in film history.

But everyone who has watched the film also knows that the high which the action causes in the church scene is soon followed by the immense pain in the next scene, in which one of the most important characters in the movie meets with an extremely sad and unexpected death. Or does he?

Right when Kingsman fans were sure that the character who was apparently killed was actually dead, actor Taron Egerton — who plays the protagonist Gary ‘Eggsy’ Unwin in the movie — tweeted this image to suggest that “this ain’t that kind of movie, bruv”.

That’s right, Kingsman fans. Get excited. Get very excited. We don’t think we need to tell you who the owner of those tortoiseshell frames is.

This probably means that arguably the best character in the movie will return for the sequel Kingsman: The Golden Circle, which is scheduled for release on 16 June, 2017.

And we are not going to spoil it by naming that character for the people who have not seen the movie yet. Because it’s good manners not to give out spoilers. And “manners maketh man”.
