Argylle
Release date: Feb. 2 (in theaters)
Stars: Bryce Dallas Howard, Henry Cavill, John Cena, Dua Lipa, Bryan Cranston, Ariana DeBose, Samuel L. Jackson, Catherine O’Hara
Director: Matthew Vaughn
Spy novelist Elly (Howard) and her cat get caught up in actual international espionage when it turns out her popular series of Argylle novels predicted real-world events. No longer adapting Mark Millar comics, Vaughn hopes this will be the start of his own twisted action-comedy trilogy with a twist. Writer Jason Fuchs’ biggest screenwriting credit to date has been Ice Age: Cotinental Drift. [Luke Y. Thompson]
