Story Overview

Gary “Eggsy” Price, a sharp but directionless young man, lost his father at a very early age during a classified military mission. In recognition of that sacrifice, his family was presented with a medal — along with a phone number to be used only once, should they ever need help. Seventeen years later, Eggsy is unemployed, living with his mother, and struggling to find a sense of purpose. After a reckless incident lands him in police custody, he unexpectedly uses the medal, triggering a chain of events that will change his life forever.

The man who answers that call is Colin Firth’s impeccably dressed agent Harry Hart, who owes his own life to Eggsy’s father. Seeing untapped potential beneath Eggsy’s rough exterior, Harry offers him a chance few ever receive: recruitment into Kingsman, an elite, independent intelligence service operating beyond government control. What follows is a rigorous and often brutal selection process, where intellect, discipline, and moral integrity matter just as much as physical skill.

As Eggsy is pushed to his limits, the world faces a looming global threat engineered by a brilliant but unhinged tech billionaire portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson. Balancing razor-sharp action with satirical wit, Kingsman: The Secret Service reinvents the spy genre by blending old-school gentlemanly values with modern, kinetic spectacle — telling the story of how an unlikely young man is forged into a true secret agent.
