You had me at ‘It’s got Sam Rockwell.’ And, of course, a cat.
From the twisted mind of Matthew Vaughn (Kingsman franchise, Kick-Ass) comes ‘Argylle,’ a razor-witted, reality-bending, globe-encircling spy thriller that hits theaters on February 2.
We used to call these ‘caper movies,’ as in a ridiculous escapade, as opposed to little pickled green things in haute cuisine. Spend a minute get acquainted with the zany hijinks coming next month...
In the film, Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World franchise) is Elly Conway, the reclusive author of a series of best-selling espionage novels, whose idea of bliss is a night at home with her computer and her cat, Alfie. But when the plots of Elly’s fictional books - which center on secret agent Argylle and his mission to unravel a global spy syndicate - begin to mirror the covert actions of a real-life spy organization, quiet evenings at home become a thing of the past.
Accompanied by Aidan (Oscar winner Sam Rockwell), a cat-allergic spy, Elly – with Alfie in her backpack - races across the world to stay one step ahead of the killers as the line between Elly’s fictional world and her real one begins to blur.
The greater the spy, the bigger the lie.
The all-star cast features Henry Cavill (The Witcher), John Cena (Fast X), Oscar winner Ariana DeBose (West Side Story), Grammy winning pop superstar Dua Lipa (Barbie), Emmy winner and Oscar nominee Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), Emmy winner and comedy icon Catherine O’Hara (Schitt’s Creek), Sofia Boutella (Kingsman: The Secret Service), and the legendary Samuel L. Jackson. Alfie is played by Chip, the real-life cat of supermodel Claudia Vaughn (née Schiffer).
Matthew Vaughn directs from a screenplay by Jason Fuchs (Wonder Woman). The film is produced by Matthew Vaughn, Adam Bohling (Kingsman franchise), Jason Fuchs, and David Reid (Kingsman franchise). The executive producers are Adam Fishbach, Zygi Kamasa, Carlos Peres and Claudia Vaughn.
The VFX are produced by BUF, Fix Studio, Magic Lab, MPC, Outpost VFX, Rodeo FX, Territory Studio, and TPO VFX. Martin Waters and Jody Johnson serve as production VFX supervisors; the production VFX producer is Barrie Hemsley.
