Spheres of action film analysis

Research a film and identify the seven "spheres of action"

For each character write a brief summary (50 words) that explains what makes them fit this role. 

Kinsman - The golden circe

Hero -  Eggsy is the hero of this movie as he is seen to save the world.  He is the protagonist of this movie and he is the most skilled and able character. He is brave and resorceful and we can see this for example as he fights against Charles on Poppy's island, and wins against him. He is resourceful as he is able to take control of Charles's arm with the use of just his watch. He is the hero as he has a quest to resolve, and we can see this as he leaves and goes to Kentucky, where he finds help to then go and find a cure, in Italy and then on poppy's island to find the solution that will save the lives of many people.
Villain - Poppy is the villain of this movie as she is a global drug dealer who is hiding on a deserted island. All she cares about is money and fame, and we can see this as she is shown to complain to Charles how she would like to be famous and known by everyone. she is the antagonist as she creates a drug which can kill people in a short time length and she is the only one who has the cure. She is shown to be maleficent and willing to kill innocent people and we can see this for example as she has no regrets in putting a man in a meat mincer and making an hamburger out of his meat.
Princess - Princess Tilde, who is also Eggsy's girlfriend. The whole world needs to be saved by the hero, but i believe that she is the princess in this movie as when she gets infected by the drug Eggsy becomes more determined in finding a way to get the cure. Once he finds out that his girlfriend is in the last stage before she is about to die, he gets on a plane to Poppy's island so that he can save Tilde and be able to propose and then marry her. She is the reason why he is so determined in getting the cure and not failing this mission. Eggs feels like this mission is really important to him because he wants to save his wife, and he is shown to be sad when he believes that he will not be able to get hold of the cure.
Donor - Merlin. He provides Eggsy with all the guns and equipment he needs during the battle. Merlin is also seen as the helper as he stays behind the screen while the hero is on the mission, helping him by telling him where to go or by creating traps for the villain. For example when Eggsy is trying to escape from Charles in Italy, Merlin takes control of the doors and shuts them so that Eggsy can run away without Charles reaching him. This gives Harry and the protagonist the chance to escape and survive from a really difficult situation.
Helper - Harry heart helps the hero throughout the quest by fighting at his side. We can see this for example on Poppy's island and in the ski resort in Italy where he fights side to side with eggsy and helps him get the password that will send the cure out to everyone in the world. He is shown to be as brave as the hero, but a bit more weaker, as he is older and has just suffered from amnesia.
False helper - Whiskey is the false helper as he pretends to help Eggsy throughout his mission, but at the end, once they have finally got the password so that they can deliver the cure, he turns against the hero and his helper. He fights first side to side with the protagonist, earning his trust and pretending to be on his same team, but then he turnes against Eggsy and Harry as he does not want the cure to be given out. Whiskey believed everyone who took drugs should die in revenge of his late wife and son who were killed many years ago by some people who were on drugs. He believed everyone who was taking recreational drugs or not should not have the right to live, but he was pretending to be on Eggsy's team to earn his trust and then be able to sabotage him and make sure he did not deliver the cure. 
Side kick - Ginger, who works side by side with Merlin. She helps the hero by finding clues on the villain, but she always stays behind the screen and doesn't have a big role in the movie. She is the one who saves harry after he was shot by valentine, and she also saved agent whiskey after he was shot in the head by Harry who suspected him from the beginning, before she found out Whiskey was not of the same views as the rest of the team, and he was trying to sabotage their mission.
Dispatcher - Champagne, who is the head of the American spy organisation, and he sets Eggsy on a quest, with Harry and Whiskey in order to stop poppy from spreading the drugs, and he gives them the mission of saving the world by bringing back a sample of the cure, or by giving out the cure to the whole world by finding the password that would deliver it to everyone through special drones.
