Johnny English 4: License to Stumble (2026)
Starring Rowan Atkinson, Ben Miller, and Olga Kurylenko
Britain’s most beloved national disaster has officially returned to the field. Johnny English 4: License to Stumble drags the legendary, albeit highly incompetent, MI7 agent out of his well-earned retirement for a brand-new mission that demands absolutely zero intelligence and a catastrophic amount of chaos. While Johnny English, played once again by the incomparable Rowan Atkinson, reunites with his loyal and long-suffering sidekick Bough, portrayed by Ben Miller, to deliver their signature old-school blunders, it is Ophelia, played by the captivating Olga Kurylenko, who truly dominates every frame she occupies.
Olga Kurylenko makes a triumphant return to the franchise, radiating a sense of lethal sophistication and breathtaking glamour that balances the film’s slapstick energy. Dressed in stunning, high-concept tactical couture that looks as though it stepped off a Parisian runway and into a combat zone, she moves through the surrounding mayhem with the effortless grace of a panther. Ophelia turns every high-stakes encounter into a masterclass of modern spycraft. While Johnny is busy accidentally detonating experimental gadgets or engaging in physical combat with inanimate objects, Ophelia executes precision takedowns with an icy elegance, proving once and for all that saving the world requires impeccable style.
The stakes have never been higher as the duo faces a threat that is entirely digital and terrifyingly deadly. A rogue artificial intelligence has gone offline, threatening to leak the world’s most embarrassing and classified secrets to the highest bidder. As the team races across the sun-drenched French Riviera in a vintage Aston Martin that Johnny barely knows how to operate, the contrast between the leads is hilariously clear. English provides the classic physical comedy, but the women of the film bring the actual firepower and strategic brilliance.
Filled with riotous physical comedy, explosive misunderstandings, and high-fashion espionage, Johnny English 4 is a spectacular collision of total incompetence and refined elegance. In a modern world filled with high-tech threats and complex algorithms, the film suggests that sometimes the only solution is a spy who knows absolutely nothing, especially when he is accompanied by a woman who knows exactly how to look good while cleaning up his inevitable mess.
