“Elly Conway, an introverted spy novelist who seldom leaves her home, is drawn into the real world of espionage when the plots of her books, featuring a fictional secret agent named Argylle, get a little too close to the activities of a sinister underground syndicate. When Aidan, an undercover spy, shows up to save her from being kidnapped or killed, Elly and her beloved cat Alfie are plunged into a covert world where nothing and no one are what they seem, including to the discovery that Agent Argylle, in fact, exists for real.”
According to Box Office Mojo, the film earned $18 million at the domestic box office, outperforming “The Beekeeper” ($5.3 million), “Wonka” ($4.8 million), and “Migration” ($4.1 million). The film earned $17.3 million internationally, for a total of $35.3 million worldwide.
