Since its inception, Apple has gone to the coup of the checkbook to sign the directors, producers and actors with more pull among the general public, although so far, the greatest success has been achieved with Ted lasso, a series with a much lower budget than other major productions such as The Morning Show, See o For all mankind and no big name stars.
One of the next projects that Apple TV + has closed, according to the guys from Deadline, is a spy thriller called argylle. This film will be directed by Matthew Vaughn, it has a $ 200 billion budget and its creators hope that it will become a franchise type Bourne o 007.
The cast, already confirmed for this movie is formed by Henry Cavill, John Cena, Samuel L. Jackson, Sam Rockwell, Bryce Dallas Howard, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O'Hara, and Dua Lipa. The latter will be in charge of the music and the soundtrack of the film.
As stated by the film's director, Matthew Vaughn:
I'm thrilled to team up with Apple and bring the most compelling spy thriller I've ever read to the only streaming service that can create a franchise of this scale and quality for global audiences to experience.
Wow, it seems that HBO, Amazon or Netflix are not capable of carrying out a project of this type, in addition to showing that has read very little.
Leaving aside the statements, which in my opinion are quite presumptuous, the film is based on the eponymous spy novel by Ellie Conway, a novel to be published in 2022 and that "he follows the best spy in the world while he is involved in an adventure that travels the world."
This is not Matthew Vaughn's first collaboration with Apple, as he will direct the film Tretris: The Movie, starring Taron Edgerton. Regarding the release date of Argylle, at the moment it is unknown, but I venture to forecast that until 2023, we can wait sitting.
