About Kingsman
Three films released between 2014 and 2021 follow the Kingsman tailors turned spy agency. The Secret Service introduces Eggsy (Taron Egerton) under mentor Harry Hart (Colin Firth). The Golden Circle (2017) teams the survivors with the American Statesman after Kingsman headquarters falls. The King's Man (2021) is a World War I era prequel about the agency's founding, led by Ralph Fiennes.
Two orders below: release order first, then chronological. Chronological puts the prequel first, but start with release order since the prequel assumes you know the brand. A fourth film, Kingsman: The Blue Blood, has been discussed since 2017 with Firth and Egerton expected back, yet a 20th Century Studios executive said in October 2024 there were no sequel plans anytime soon.
Good to know
The Secret Service premiered in the UK in January 2015 and is widely listed as a 2014 film; this guide uses 2014. Argylle (2024) shares director Matthew Vaughn and a mid-credits Kingsman nod but is not part of the main sequence. Blue Blood, The Traitor King prequel sequel, and a Statesman series all lack dates.
