Sneak Peek more new spoiler images from director Matthew Vaughn's "The Secret Service", plus comic book creator Mark Millardiscusses the big screen film adaptation starring Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Firth, Taron Egertonand Michael Caine:
"Taron is exactly 'Gary Unwin', " said Millar.
"Without question. He just looks like Dave's drawing come to life. Colin, likewise, looks like he's stepped out of the comic.
"It's just fantastic and having a couple of Oscar winners like he and Michael Caine just gives this project such a huge gravitas.
"Sam's character in the book is more of a 'Mark Zuckerberg' character, an internet entrepreneur who falls for this big global warming concern that's genuinely given me sleepless nights since I first read James Lovelock's 'Gaia' books in my twenties.
"We talked about a lot of young, 20-something actors, but really there was nobody available who felt right and this part really needed a big American movie star since so many of the other parts are British. But then Matthew buzzed me up and suggested Sam Jackson, and it clicked into place. When he read out the dialogue in Sam Jackson's voice, this great scene he and Jane wrote between Sam's character and Colin Firth's, I could totally see it."
"...the world's greatest secret agent is on the most exciting case of his career. But will the end of the world as know it take a back seat to training his street-punk nephew to be the next 'James Bond'?
"What's the secret link between a series of kidnapped sci-fi stars, the murder of an entire town, and a dark secret from inside 'Mount Everest'? Under the supervision of 'Uncle Jack', the spy skills of 'Gary' blossom--but when the duo learn what's behind the celebrity kidnappings, the knowledge comes at a price.
"The conspiracy begins to unravel, but who can be trusted when so many prominent figures seem to be involved?..."
"...Hopeless street punk 'Jake' is faced with a stark choice: continue along his current path of crime and desperation leading him toward an unpleasant end in the gutter, or follow the instruction of his uncle as he tries to hone Jake's violent tendencies and get him accepted into the ranks of the 'British Secret Service'.
"As Jake tries to make it through his uncle's training program, they will face a tragedy involving an entire town, a dark secret hidden inside 'Mount Everest' and the kidnapping of 'Mark Hamill'..."
"We came up with this idea of a wee nerd who becomes a gentleman spy, ditching his trainers for suits and being taught how to speak properly," said Millar about "The Secret Service".
"The reason he gets chosen is that a guy like that is disposable. I am a massive 'Bond' fan and 'Secret Service' is like 'My Fair Lady' meets 'James Bond'.
