In the world of espionage, the greater the spy, the bigger the lie. This February Matthew Vaughn is set to take audiences on a wild ride with his latest creation, “Argylle.” This razor-witted, reality-bending, globe-encircling spy thriller promises to deliver heart-pounding excitement and intrigue.
Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Samuel L Jackson, Ariana DeBose, and more star in this film.
At the heart of this thrilling narrative is Bryce Dallas Howard, who portrays Elly Conway. Elly is a reclusive author with a penchant for best-selling espionage novels. Her idea of bliss involves quiet nights at home with her computer and her beloved cat, Alfie. However, Elly’s peaceful existence takes a dramatic turn when the plots of her fictional books, centered around secret agent Argylle and his mission to dismantle a global spy syndicate, start mirroring the covert operations of a real-life spy organization. Suddenly, Elly finds herself thrust into a world of danger, and those quiet evenings at home become a distant memory.
Joined by Aiden, played by Oscar® winner Sam Rockwell (who, interestingly, is allergic to cats), Elly embarks on a whirlwind global adventure, with Alfie tucked safely in her backpack. As the boundaries between Elly’s fictional world and reality blur, they must stay one step ahead of ruthless assassins.
Henry Cavill, John Cena, Dua Lipa, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O’Hara, and Sofia Boutella round out the cast. Alfie, Elly’s feline companion, is portrayed by Chip, the real-life cat of supermodel Claudia Vaughn (formerly Schiffer)

Presented by Apple Original Films in association with MARV, “Argylle” is distributed by Universal Pictures. This fantasy spy thriller promises to deliver a mind-bending experience that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
