So a couple of months ago I shared the first trailer clip from the opening in early 2020 film “The King’s Man”. I noted that this film serves as a prequel to two similar films and comes based on a comic book series by Mark Millar under the Image Comics publishing banner. I liked that first clip and if you didn’t see it click HERE. Now its onto the second clip along with the premise, casting and a theatrical poster for good measure. Have at it.
The Premise:
As a collection of history’s worst tyrants and criminal masterminds gather to plot a war to wipe out millions, one man and his protégé must race against time to stop them.
The Cast:
Ralph Fiennes as Duke of Oxford
Gemma Arterton as Polly
Rhys Ifans as Grigori Rasputin
Matthew Goode as Tristan
Tom Hollander as George V, Wilhelm II and Nicholas II
Harris Dickinson as Conrad
Daniel Brühl as Felix Yusupov
Djimon Hounsou as Shola
Charles Dance
Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Unwin
Joel Basman
Stanley Tucci
Alison Steadman
Robert Aramayo
Alexandra Maria Lara
PiercingMetal Thoughts: So I mentioned in the first trailer clip I mentioned that I didn’t see those first films or follow the comic book series but not to worry I still have a little time and as I also mentioned, I might look for that stuff at the upcoming New York Comic Con which I will be attending. The press clearance came through without a hitch and it marks my 10th year attending this mega-media event. If this happening is of interest to you at all you might want to bookmark THIS TAG on your browser and also start following our Official Instagram because I tend to go all out at this convention. Hundreds and hundreds of visuals will be at your fingertips for sure. Now back to this topic at hand, I really liked the look of the second clip but I am a completist and still need to see the other films or be more familiar with the source material before looking deeper into this one. What did you think? You can chime in down below in the comments section and let me know what you think. You’ve still got a few months to decide on whether to see this or not and the time frame makes me wonder if we shall see a third trailer. See you again my friends.
