Henry Cavill’s Argylle: An Updated Cast List for the Apple TV+ Movie

Although he can still work in the world of his king man universe, director Matthew Vaughn just can’t pass up a good spy story. After reading a manuscript of author Elly Conway’s spy thriller Argyle, Vaughn dedicated himself to directing this film version of the project and took Henry Cavill with him. It wasn’t long before a veritable who’s who of actors was cast in the original Apple TV+ movie, and as you’re about to see, the faces that are involved in this particular game are both familiar and intriguing. Let’s take a look at the cast of Argylestarting with the star of the show.
Henry Cavill
How can you have Argyle without the spy who bears his name? After having himself made a few trips into the world of espionage, thanks to The man from UNCLE and Mission: Impossible – Fallout, Henry Cavill has once again entered the spy game. This time he’s a bit of a joker, as our story begins with this amnesiac protagonist who is tricked into thinking he’s just a fiction writer. That being said, Cavill’s potential gig as James Bond may not be as certain as some hope, especially if Argyle realizes its ambition to launch a new trilogy of spy films.
Doua Lipa
Make her acting debut in Argyle, Dua Lipa will also provide the music score and title track for the project. Playing a character named Lagrange, we saw her in the film’s first official photo and action footage, with Henry Cavill hinting in a social media post that trouble was ahead. Considering a bunch of guns are fired at Argylle moments after he starts dancing with Lagrange, and she seems totally cool about the whole thing, that’s probably an understatement.
Ariana DeBose
Our final cast member who can actually be seen in character is West Side Story Ariana DeBose. Oscar nominee among this year’s nomineesDeBose is also known for her credits in the casting of hamilton and the Netflix Original Movie Prom. For the moment, it is not known in which she plays Argyle. However, judging from our first look, DeBose seems like someone we can trust; which is more than we can say for his recent casting as supervillain Calypso Ezili in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. Kraven the hunter.
Sam Rockwell
This is where we begin to wander into darker and more unknown waters, while the rest of from Argyle The main cast is still a bit of a mystery. Although that’s a good thing, especially when an actor as versatile as Oscar winner Sam Rockwell is in the game. Handyman, Rockwell was recently seen by the public in the FX series Fosse/Verdon; and can later be heard in the Dreamworks Animation movie The villains. The jury is still out on whether he will be a villain, an anti-hero, or a hero on the fringes of this dangerous world, but if you want learn more about The villainswe have information that will be very useful to you.
Bryce Dallas Howard
Dinosaurs aren’t the only source of action in Bryce Dallas Howard’s resume. The actor/director has tackled worlds like those of Jurassic World Dominion and The Mandalorian in the name of entertaining his fans. As a member of the Argyle However, its exact purpose is not yet defined. We’d like to guess she’d be an Argylle ally to Henry Cavill, but she could turn her heels around and play a villain trying to take him down.
John Cena
Speaking of heel turns, John Cena is also on this amazing list of talents! Wrestling veteran turned blockbuster Cena used The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker to push his brand of chaos even further. Whatever role he plays Argyleit better be one that takes full advantage of Matthew Vaughn’s action-comedy line, because it’s clearly built for that sort of thing.
Bryan Cranston
Back in the world of cinema for the first time since the 2020s The one and only Ivan, Bryan Cranston has always been a busy man. Before his casting in ArgyleCranston has been on stage with productions of both Network and sail poweras well as directed the Showtime series Your Honor. Of course, his moral alignment in this film is also in question, as the world best remembers him as goofy Hal from Malcolm in the middle and the vicious Walter White in breaking Bad.
Catherine O’Hara
Comedy legend Catherine O’Hara feels like a prime addition to the cast of a Matthew Vaughn film. Although unconfirmed, the synopsis of from Argyle The source novel written by Elly Conway hints that O’Hara could play the character of Frances Coffey. Known as “the most legendary spymaster in the CIA”, it is she who is supposed to bring our spy back to the fold, in order to foil this infamous plot. As fans of Catherine O’Hara’s Best Film and TV Roles would be remembered for his iconic work on Schitt’s Creekthis suggestion could lead to a lot of jokes about how Moira became M for the world of Argyle.
Samuel L. Jackson
This isn’t the first time Matthew Vaughn and Samuel L. Jackson have teamed up in the movie world. A legendary acting talent, Jackson was also Richmond Valentine, the central villain of Kingsman: The Secret Service. It’s currently unknown if this role prompted Vaughn to keep Samuel L. Jackson as a villain or shake things up and use his heroic talents playing the MCU’s Nick Fury. If nothing else, it looks like these collaborators had so much fun playing together before that they decided to use Argyle like their big meeting.
Rob Delaney
Closing the currently known cast list for this project is another veteran of the film intelligence community, comedian Rob Delaney. Seen previously in Hobbs and Shawbesides being cast as an undisclosed character in Mission: Impossible 7Delaney’s comedy chops find themselves tested among spies of different stripes. Argyle marks another cinematic appearance from the man who made a big impression as Peter in Deadpool 2though now we’re starting to wonder if we can really trust Deadpool’s seemingly sweet BFF?
The good news is that Apple TV+ subscribers will be rewarded for their patience when Argyle debuts as an Apple Original Movie. However, this has the downside of not knowing when the film will debut. While the wait certainly seems worth it, it’s almost torture to show us Henry Cavill and Dua Lipa together to keep us waiting for an announcement.
If you want to experience Argyle, the novel appears to be on track for release in September. Which means you’ll have to look for other upcoming movies to keep you entertained in the movie world. Luckily, there’s still plenty to discover throughout 2022.
