The second installation in the genre-bending spy franchise 'Kingsman', called 'Kingsman: The Golden Circle,' is set to come out later this year. Ahead of the sequel's release, 20th Century Fox, the studio behind the film, combined it with another one of it's spy-based properties. However, the results aren't nearly as gory or thrilling as one might expect.
To promote both Kingsman: The Golden Circle and 'Archer,' the animated comedy series that spoofs the spy genre, 20th Century Fox has released an animated sketch that shows the two franchises' main characters in a chance meeting. The short opens on Eggsy Unwin running to safety in the Kingsman suit shop before running into Sterling Archer, who promptly lambastes him in his show's sarcastic, cutting style.
