Worst Previews (with a nod to LiveforFilms for the heads up) have acquired the first look still from Johnny English: Reborn, the sequel to a 2003 British spy comedy parodying the James Bond secret agent genre.
Johnny English: Reborn is being directed by Oliver Parker and stars Rowan Atkinson as Johnny English, alongside Rosamund Pike (Made in Dagenham), Gillian Anderson (The Last King of Scotland), Dominic West (Centurion), Burn Gorman (Cemetery Junction) and Mark Ivanir (Get Smart).
In his latest adventure, the most unlikely intelligence officer in Her Majesty’s Secret Service must stop a group of international assassins before they eliminate a world leader and cause global chaos. In the years since MI-7?s top spy vanished off the grid, he has been honing his unique skills in a remote region of Asia. But when his agency superiors learn of an attempt against the Chinese premier’s life, they must hunt down the highly unorthodox agent.
Now that the world needs him once again, Johnny English is back in action. With one shot at redemption, he must employ the latest in hi-tech gadgets to unravel a web of conspiracy that runs throughout the KGB, CIA and even MI-7. With mere days until a heads of state conference, one man must use every trick in his playbook to protect us all. For Johnny English, disaster may be an option, but failure never is.
The film will be released sometime next year.
Embedded below is the first look still:
