To celebrate the upcoming
release of “The King’s Man”, 20th Century Studios and MARV have teamed up
with Williams Racing.
The film, which lands exclusively in cinemas in the UK on 26 December 2021,
is the third instalment in the hit Kingsman franchise directed by Matthew
Vaughan.
To launch the collaboration, a Williams Racing show car with special film
branding is set to be unveiled at the World Premiere of “The King’s Man” in
London’s Leicester Square on Monday 6 December 2021 and at the US Premiere
in New York City on Monday 13th December.
Matthew Vaughn, Director of “The King’s Man”, said: “I fell in love with
Formula One back in the eighties and will never forget heroes like Mansell,
Hill, Prost and Senna driving the Williams cars. Also indelible from those
memories is the presence of Sir Frank Williams; the astonishing force behind
the team whose quiet rage and will-to-win was as evident as his gentlemanly
approach to racing. Kingsman is proud to announce the new partnership with
Williams Racing and we look forward to the future collaboration of two
like-minded British institutions who believe in shouting quietly and
redefining gentleman drivers.”
Following the premiere, the signature Kingsman style and flair will be
brought to the Formula One Paddock at this weekend’s Etihad Airways Abu
Dhabi Grand Prix. George Russell and Nicholas Latifi will be on track in the
FW43B, which will have a special The King’s Man logo displayed on the nose,
chassis side and on the halo, for the season finale, with additional
activations on race day to ensure George ends his final race for Williams
Racing in style.
James Bower, Commercial Director at Williams Racing, said: “We’re delighted
to begin our collaboration with 20th Century Studios and MARV by celebrating
the launch of their new film ‘The King’s Man’. At Williams Racing we proudly
embrace our British heritage, both on and off track, and this is a brilliant
opportunity to collaborate with, and support, British cinema.”
