Promoting the release of Kingsman on Digital HD, Blu-Ray and DVD, Vaughn revealed that he was working on a script for the sequel.
"Well, the good news is that I'm writing it next door at the moment. If I think I can get the script good enough, then we are making it," he told Yahoo Movies at a sit down at his own home. "We are doing our damndest to make that happen."

"I'm in love with these characters and I want to work with them again so I'll probably be breaking the rule of [me] tending not to make sequels."
The British director will almost certainly have to rethink his stance on sequels and will probably have to mull over the idea of a franchise given Kingsman's clear suitability.

Kingsman: The Secret Service followed the recruitment and training of a potential secret agent Gary "Eggys" Unwin (Taron Egerton) into a secret spy organisation. Eggys joins a mission to tackle a global threat from Richmond Valentine (Samuel L. Jackson), a wealthy eco-terrorist.
"Underneath the silly carnage, there's a tremendously fun film, but as a starting point, it signals the start of a potentially big new franchise," said Jeffrey Lyles of Lyles' Movie Files.
'Kingsman: The Secret Service' is available in the UK on Digital HD, Blu-Ray and DVD now.
