There was Kingsman, its sequel and its prequel. The three films through which Matthew Vaughn showed his true love for espionage are already seen in X-Men – The Beginning and which we find at the center of his new opus. In another world and irony.
While the trailer for Argylle begins in the classic way, with Henry Cavill and his crew starting a dance move with Dua Lipa, the latter are actually just characters created by a novelist (Bryce Dallas Howard) specializing in spy stories. Until he meets an agent played by Sam Rockwell.
Expected to hit our theaters on January 31, 2024, after being exclusive to AppleTV+ for some time, Argyle clearly has everything to please fans of Matthew Vaughn.
The leaked images show that the Kick-Ass director will have an energetic and crazy style that will serve up the funny cat and XXL actor who would make Wes Anderson green with envy.
The almighty brush
In addition to the already mentioned quartet, we will find Bryan Cranston, John Cena, Catherine O’Hara, Ariana Debose, Samuel L. Jackson and perhaps a surprise guest. Because the end of the trailer shows a meeting between Bryce Dallas Howard and the real Argyle, a spy who only existed in his novels at the time.
Between In Pursuit of the Green Diamond (which already inspired last year’s Mystery of the Lost City), Knight and Day, Kingsman and a nod to 80s US action movies where many Russian villains would be the same cut as Henry Cavill. Argyll promises beautiful fireworks to start the year.
And Matthew Vaughn serves champagne. Except Sam Rockwell transforms into an unexpected action hero like he did with Colin Firth in Kingsman.
