Matthew Vaughn, director of Kingsman: the Golden Circle, has spoken about his disappointment in the film's trailers, which included a major spoiler from the film.
If you haven't seen any Kingsman 2 trailers, the content of this article will be a spoiler. If you have seen the trailers, you know what I'm talking about, and probably agree with Matthew Vaughn.
Trailers revealed that Colin Firth's Harry Hart - who seemed to have died in the course of the first film - would return in the sequel.
Speaking to IGN, Vaughn was forthright about his feelings on that particular promotional choice: "Well, I’m not in charge of marketing. The thinking about that was stupidity, to be blunt.
"I begged the studio not to reveal it. Because it’s the whole driving force of the first act and if you didn’t know that scene it would’ve made the whole audience gasp. So you have to ask the lovely marketing guys because I think their job is to open the movie and don’t really care about the experience of the movie."
It seems Vaughn won't let that mistake happen again, indicating he hopes to take control of trailers in future: "There’s a great expression someone said to me: 'the storyteller should be the story seller', and I’m going to try and do that next time."
Spoilers or not, we enjoyed Kingsman 2, calling it, "as cheeky, cartoonish, and crazy as its predecessor, but [...] also commendably unafraid to demolish what had come before it if it’s in service of the story".
