Argylle set to stream on Apple TV+ from Easter

Apple TV+ are lining up Argylle to premiere on the platform from Easter weekend, the end of March 2024.

According to a source, the film, which was released last month, will soon jump from big screen to the streamer. “Argylle didn’t set the box office alight, despite the big budget and all-star cast. However, although critics didn’t warm to it, film fans did and it’s likely to draw many to the Apple TV+ where it will stream exclusively alongside other huge Apple films like “Killers of the Flower Moon”. theversion.co.uk rated the film four stars.

From the twisted mind of Vaughn comes “Argylle,” a razor-witted, reality-bending, globe-encircling spy thriller. Bryce Dallas Howard is Elly Conway, the reclusive author of a series of bestselling 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 organisation, quiet evenings at home become a thing of the past. Accompanied by Aidan, a cat-allergic spy played by Sam Rockwell, Elly (carrying 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 top-flight ensemble features Henry Cavill, John Cena, Ariana DeBose, Richard E. Grant, Dua Lipa, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O’Hara, Sofia Boutella, Samuel L. Jackson and Chip, the real-life cat of supermodel Claudia Vaughn (née Schiffer). 

“Argylle” is directed by Vaughn and is written by Jason Fuchs.

Apple TV haven’t confirmed speculation for a premiere date for the film.
