The global opening weekend of Argylle pales in comparison to its huge budget. The $200 million spy movie from Apple Original Films and director Matthew Vaughn, is allegedly a meta adaptation of the real book of the same name by the mysterious and potentially non-existent Elly Conway. In the movie, Bryce Dallas Howard plays Conway herself, who gets caught up in a globetrotting adventure when her spy novel about Agent Argylle (Henry Cavill) proves to have unintended, prescient insight into actual espionage operations.
