Actor Vinnie Jones may have only returned to Twitter a few days ago, but he is already using the platform to deliver good news to his fans. A series of tweets posted on the account confirm that Jones is the latest cast addition to Kingsman: The Golden Circle, the sequel to Matthew Vaughn’s hit spy comedy Kingsman: The Secret Service.
Jones made the announcement with the following tweet…

After people said that they unsure of whether or not the account actually belonged to the actor, and not an impersonator, Jones was sure to clarify…

From there, Jones went on to take a number of pictures from the film’s set, including ones with Vaughn, whom he previously worked with on Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and his Oscar-winning co-star Julianne Moore (Still Alice). Check them all out below…

Over the past two decades, the actor has appeared in such movies and TV shows as Swordfish, She’s the Man, X-Men: The Last Stand, Galavant and Arrow.
Kingsman: The Secret Service will reunite Vaughn with stars Taron Egerton, Mark Strong and Edward Holcroft, while Colin Firth may also return in some capacity. Also set to feature in the cast are Channing Tatum (Foxcatcher), Halle Berry (Extant) and Pedro Pascal (Game of Thrones), Jeff Bridges (The Little Prince) and Elton John. The film is set for release on June 16th, 2017, and, unlike the previous installment, will hit US and UK theaters on the same day.
