James Bond is not the only international spy to be exported from the
U.K., although
Rowan Atkinson's 'Johnny English' is much more farce than thriller.
Original props from Johhny English Reborn on display
First debuting on the big screen in 2003, a the accidental
MI-7 secret agent returned for a sequel in
Johnny English Reborn in 2011.

These props featured in the second cinematic installment were photographed on display at
Universal Studios Hollywood on April 26, 2012.
Johnny English Reborn lipstick gun prop
Included in the exhibit is
Johnny's MI-7 I.D. card, the key to
Vortex's (a clandestine cabal of assassins) secret weapon, plus more besides. My favorite prop is the cool lipstick gun used by a mind-controlled
Johnny in an attempt to kill the
Chinese Premier.Original costumes worn by Rowan Atkinson
and John Malkovich in Johnny English
On a return visit to the
London Film Museum on May 15, 2012, I also had the good fortune to see these suits designed by
Jill Taylor and worn by
Rowan Atkinson as the titular
'Johnny English' and
John Malkovich as
'Pascal Sauvage' (which I'd previously seen behind a display case on a prior visit).
Original newspaper prop from Johnny English
They also had this newspaper prop on display from the first spy spoof film, which I believe is on sale from
Propstore.com.
If you're a
Rowan Atkinson fan, be sure to also check out this
Mr. Bean movie costume and car on display.
