After spending years as director Guy Ritchie‘s producer, director Matthew Vaughn has emerged as one of the most exciting and original filmmakers working today.
As a director, Vaughn first burst on to the scene with the brilliant and groundbreaking movie ‘Layer Cake,’ which introduced audiences to a pre-Bond Daniel Craig.
Since then he has adapted several popular comic books and graphic novels to the big screen including ‘Stardust,’ ‘Kick-Ass,’ ‘X-Men: First Class,’ ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service,’ its sequel ‘Kingsman: The Golden Circle,’ and it’s prequel ‘The King’s Man.’
His new movie, the spy comedy ‘Argylle,’ which stars Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard and Sam Rockwell, opens in theaters on February 2nd.
In honor of the new film, Moviefone is counting down every movie Matthew Vaughn has ever directed, including his latest.
