Argyle (Formerly Untitled Matthew Vaughn Spy Thriller)

[ace3g]

Vaughn is set to write and direct a new movie about a best-selling spy novelist who turns out to be a world-class spy suffering from amnesia, sources tell Observer. When her past comes back to haunt her, so does her memory in this global espionage thriller.

Bryce Dallas Howard is in talks to star in the lead role. Tricked into thinking she's a writer, her lethal skills return with her memories, setting her down a path of revenge against the shadowy organization she used to work for, the Division. Also in talks to star are Sam Rockwell as a former Division agent and our heroine's love interest, and Samuel L. Jackson as a rogue agent dedicated to exposing the corruption within the clandestine spy network.

Well, they may have found a worse look for Cavill than the CGI mouth.

What's the point of going to the movies anymore when idiots in marketing give away all of the plot twists to the press?

I have no interest in this movie (I think me liking X-Men: First Class was a bit of a fluke, 'cause I have not liked any other Matthew Vaughn movie I've seen and this looks like more of the same to me), so maybe I'm coming at this from a bit of a detached perspective, but I wouldn't really call any of what's posted above a "plot twist." It's the core concept of the movie, the premise you're signing up for when you buy your ticket.

The latest trailer reveals that its more in line with the female damsel /spy thriller rom/com in the vein of The Lost City. I can see why the plot isn't what people will be coming to the theatres to see. Looks fun. I enjoyed The Lost City and this probably too since they are comparable.

Seems daft to reveal the plot twist in a press release. The trailers shy away from revealing the true nature of BDH's past. I imagine it would have been a lot of fun to discover that secret in the theatre.
