The Hollywood Reporter has announced Kingsman 2's shooting month in the aftermath of a schedule conflict for Kingsman star Taron Egerton.Egerton was signed on to shoot Robin Hood: Origins in February, but Kingsman writer-director Matthew Vaughn exercised his option for Egerton's role in The Secret Service sequel.Instead of recasting Egerton in Robin Hood, the production will shift with the breakout star when Kingsman 2 finishes shooting, which will likely be in the second half of next year.Egerton is also reportedly attached to an indie crime drama called Crooks County that is an adaptation of a true story of a whistleblower who's part of an undercover FBI operation.Fox has been reportedly working on a Kingsman sequel for a while now, and Vaughn has admitted he's open to directing the follow-up , which may see the return of Colin Firth
