COUNTDOWN TO THE GOLDEN CIRCLE: 4 Weeks --- On Being a Gentleman It’s like Charlie said: I’m just a pleb. Nonsense. Being a gentleman has nothing to do with the circumstances of one’s birth. Being a gentleman is something one learns.

COUNTDOWN TO THE GOLDEN CIRCLE: 3 Weeks --- Casting Eggsy Unwin What happened with a lot of kids who read for the role was that all I was thinking was, "When we get to the train sequence, the audience is gonna be disappointed that the train doesn’t cut you in half.” When Taron read Eggsy, I was like, “No, they’re gonna be worried.” He read Eggsy the street-kid well, and then when I said, “Now we’re gonna do you playing a gentleman spy at the end,” he knocked that out the park --- Matthew Vaughn

COUNTDOWN TO THE GOLDEN CIRCLE: 5 Weeks --- Hamish (Agent Merlin)  There’s a combination in him of efficiency and toughness, but he’s a very likeable character. He’s the kind of sergeant/major figure who likes his charges, cares about them. There is a soft side to him; he’s a kind of tough-love merchant. And rather than just being a hard-case, you could’ve played him like that, Matthew (Vaughn) said, “I want there to be something about him we like. We’re rooting for him because he’s rooting for them.” --- Mark Strong
