Channing Tatum seems to be on a roll when it comes to comic book movies. First, he lands the role of Gambit, and now he is the latest actor to join the expanding star-studded cast of Matthew Vaughn’s Kingsman: The Golden Circle.
For now, though it is unclear what role he has in Kingsman: The Golden Circle. He did, however, tweet this image along with his announcement:

The actor is the latest cast confirmed for the sequel to the 2015’s runaway hit action flick, and his enlistment follows the addition of Game of Thrones’s Pedro Pascal.
Director Matthew Vaughn is also rumored to be in talks to include Elton John in the cast.
While Tatum’s role is uncertain, it has been revealed that the sequel will follow Eggsy (Taron Egerton) and Merlin (Mark Strong) fleeing London after a devastating attack on the Kingsman headquarters. The two are seeking refuge with the American equivalent of Kingsman, lead by Halle Berry.
For the other recruits, it has been revealed that Julianne Moore will be playing the film’s new villain. Pascal is playing Jack Daniels while Vaughn has pretty much confirmed Colin Firth’s return.
Kingsman: The Golden Circle hits theaters on June 16, 2017.
