The film, ‘The Man From U.N.C.L.E.’, is based on the classic 1960s TV series of the same name.

Ritchie, 44, who is from Hatfield, will not be returning one of his former haunts Hatfield House in the new film.

He has previously used the grounds of the stately home in other hit movies, including 2009 flick ‘Sherlock Holmes’.

But a spokeswoman there told the Welwyn Hatfield Times: “We are not involved in the new one [film].”

The movie is set to star Man of Steel actor Henry Cavill and the Lone Ranger’s Armie Hammer and Hugh Grant.
