Argyle (Matthew Vaughn and Henry Cavill, 2024)

Marv studios making another spy series, again with Matthew Vaughn directing. Cavill and Samuel L Jackson are currently the only cast from other Vaughn productions (No Fletcher, Flemyng or Strong!?!!?)

Does anyone have any details on the book? Nothing on Amazon nor Google.

It’s not out till next year.

Conway’s debut thriller is scheduled to be published in a major launch in 2022 by Transworld Publishers Ltd, a division of Penguin Random House.

That’s all I can find on it.

Orion, that’s all I found as well. Hoping for some sort of blurb…

Looks as if that debut novel was sold simultaneously to publisher and Hollywood. Happens from time to time, everybody’s out to discover the next big thing.

FandomWire…

There’s no real substance to any of that article. It’s completely nebulous.

I pretty much ignore anything from Fandomwire when it turns up in my news feed. They’ll latch onto anything just to generate clicks. See also, GiantFreakinRobot.

Uneasy with funky choices?

As if those had not been triple-checked after everyday‘s rushes.

“He plays a secret agent suffering from amnesia who is tricked into believing he’s a novelist.”

I guarantee you this is the answer to the supposed first time author Ellie Conway and her debut novel “Argylle” and why she doesn’t seem to exist - it’s somehow a part of the movie’s storyline…
