The actor, who has starred in both Kingsman Previously added, "I think it's an incredibly exciting idea, and I'm sad that I'm not going to be there, but it's not the last of Eggsy."
Recently, a trailer was released of Egerton in the new Elton John biopic, Rocketman. Set for release next summer, the biopic follows the music icon's journey to the 'Honky Chateau', his 1972 breakthrough album.

In September, the first official photo of the production was revealed, showing Egerton in some of the singer's trademark get-up.
reviewing Kingsman: The Golden Circle, NME wrote: "For a larky spy movie, there's far too much static exposure. Action is scant, with wobbly CG and without the energy of the first church massacre or anything as imaginative as the blade-legged henchwoman, Gazelle. If there 'sa saving grace it' s Elton John, have a furious hostage livid at being subjected to these people 's nonsense. After 140 minutes you get how he feels. "
Kingsman 3 is set to begin next year with a November 2019 release date expected.
