In what year does the film begin with Orlando's journey to South Africa?
In the year 1902, British aristocrat Orlando, the Duke of Oxford, along with his wife Emily and their young son Conrad, find themselves amidst chaos as they visit a concentration camp led by General Kitchener and his deputy, Captain Max Morton, in South Africa during the Second Boer War while serving with the Red Cross. Tragically, Emily is fatally wounded by a Boer sniper, and with her last breath, she extracts a promise from Orlando that their son will never witness the horrors of war again.
Fast forward twelve years; Orlando has established a clandestine spy network comprised of domestic servants serving the world’s most powerful leaders. Among his recruits are Shola and Polly, both working closely under him. Their mission is clear: to shield the United Kingdom and the British Empire from the impending chaos of the Great War. Meanwhile, Conrad is eager to enlist in the British Army, but Orlando is resolute in his opposition and manages to persuade Lord Kitchener not to allow it.
Prompted by Kitchener, Orlando and his companion, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, embark on a journey through Sarajevo. In a dramatic turn of events, Conrad intervenes to save the Archduke from a bomb thrown by Gavrilo Princip, a revolutionary determined to ignite conflict. Yet, fate intervenes, and Princip succeeds in assassinating both the Archduke and his wife, Sophie.
The assassination sends shockwaves through Europe as the interconnected royal families—King George of England, Tsar Nicholas of Russia, and Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany—find themselves at the precipice of war. The death of Ferdinand presents an opportunity for Kaiser Wilhelm to unleash his armies, unsettling the delicate peace that Queen Victoria once maintained. Under orders from The Shepherd, Erik, an advisor to the Kaiser, cunningly provokes him to disregard King George and attack Austria, further escalating into World War I.
Orlando discovers that Princip is connected to a group called “The Flock,” which aims to instigate conflict among the major empires. Their headquarters, nestled on a remote clifftop, is under the influence of Captain Morton, who remains loyal to Kitchener while secretly pursuing a scheme for Scottish independence. Among the operatives is the enigmatic mystic Grigori Rasputin, close advisor to the Tsar. Following his orders, Rasputin attempts to poison Tsar Nicholas’s son but only cures him when promised that Russia will refrain from joining the war.
Upon learning of Rasputin’s influence, Conrad alerts Kitchener and Major Morton, only for their ship to be sunk by a German submarine, tragically ending Kitchener’s life. In the wake of this loss, Orlando inducts Conrad into his espionage network and sets off with Shola and Polly to confront Rasputin. A fierce battle ensues, resulting in Rasputin’s demise during a Christmas party hosted by Prince Felix.
Despite celebrating his 19th birthday, Conrad feels a relentless urge to fight, disregarding his father’s wishes. He seizes an opportunity to swap positions with a soldier named Archie Reid, adopting the alias “Lancelot” as a message to Orlando. Disguised as Archie, Conrad’s mission into No-Man’s Land leads to a misunderstanding, and he is tragically executed as a supposed German spy, leaving Orlando devastated. However, Conrad’s bravery uncovers vital intelligence verifying the Zimmermann Telegram.
In the face of growing chaos, Orlando discovers that President Woodrow Wilson is being blackmailed by the Shepherd’s agent, Mata Hari. After an intense confrontation, Orlando uncovers the Shepherd’s base, ultimately revealing Morton as the orchestrator behind Kitchener’s death. With allies Shola and Polly, they confront Morton, killing him and recovering the incriminating footage intended to keep the U.S. out of the war.
With the war drawing to a close, Orlando takes charge of the Kingsman Tailor Shop as a front for his network, recruiting his allies and the U.S. Ambassador to the U.K., and each adopting code names inspired by Arthurian legends in memory of Conrad. In a foreboding mid-credit scene, the new Shepherd, Hanussen, introduces a young and ambitious Adolf Hitler to the man fated to assassinate the Romanovs, hinting at the dark future that awaits.
