Argyle’s Mid-Credits Scene Reveals Spy Universe in the Works

Kingsman fans have a reason to celebrate as a potential crossover between Argylle and Kingsman might not be too far off.

Movie goers who stayed behind will enjoy a Marvel-esque scene bonus. When the credits roll, it’s interrupted by a flashback 20 years ago. Shown in the mid-credits is a young Aubrey Argylle entering what looks like a bar from the Kingsman movie.

Just after the Kingsman reveal, the customer orders a “cosmopolitan with a twist”. While the barkeeper and the young Aubrey exchange codewords, the former hands him a box with a weapon.

In an interview with Yahoo UK, Director Matthew Vaughn stated that he wanted the movies to intersect. Consequentially, the crossover was a possibility as MARV Studios produced the two films.

Theory-crafters are also insisting similarities between Elly Conway’s cat to the pop singer’s Scottish Fold. However, Matthew Vaughn clarified that Elly Conway is not Taylor Swift.

Spoilers ahead: Argylle’s plot revolves around introverted spy novelist Elly Conway, played by Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World).

Foundationally, the story focuses on how Elly survives a deadly game of spies and assassins as she discovers that her stories coincide with real-life events.

Some big names were cast for Argylle – Henry Cavill (Superman, The Witcher), John Cena, Dua Lipa, Samuel Jackson (Avengers), and Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), just to name a few.

The director hasn’t overtly stated a shared cinematic universe for the two movies. However, former Kingsman: The Secret Service cast member Sofia Boutella makes an appearance in the film. The actress’ appearance contributes to reinforcing the idea that there is indeed a shared spy universe.

Here’s the official trailer of Argylle;

After all the reports, CNN Philippines has confirmed that the network will shutdown its operations on all media platforms this January 31, 2024. The company released their official statement on all their social media accounts as well an official statement published on cnnphilippines.com.

We express our deepest appreciation to our dedicated team for their unwavering commitment over the years that has elevated CNNPH as a trusted source of news and information in the Philippines.

Sofia Vergara’s Acting Chops in Netflix’s Griselda

Sofa Vergara’s new Netflix Series Griselda follows the story of a Colombian woman who comes to the United States as she leads her double life as the Godmother of Cocaine and a mother to three kids.

Sounds cliche? The big twist is that this series is based on a much darker story. Griselda Blanco did exist, and her family still lives

Griselda Blanco’s journey from Colombia wasn’t easy – she grew up in an extremely abusive household. There are accounts of her by an outdated Britannica. The encyclopedia purportedly showed that she helped in a kidnapping when she was just 11 years old. 

Blanco died on September 3, 2012, when she was gunned down by a motorcycle rider – a method she employed herself onto her enemies.

The big screen has featured the infamous Colombian drug leader before. Catherine-Zeta Jones’ portrayal in the movie Cocaine Godmother (2017) received praise amidst a rushed plot and a few factual inconsistencies.

In the exclusive interview with Sofia Vergara by Entertainment Tonight, the actress spoke about snorting fake cocaine, aside from her unrecognizable transformation.

The Blanco family has filed legal action to stop the release of the series, to which the director responded “lightheartedly”.

Watch the New Trailer for Avatar The Last Airbender

Netflix’s new and upcoming series Avatar The Last Airbender will premiere on February 22 this year.

The new Avatar of the four elements will be played by half-French, half-Filipino Canadian actor Gordon Cormier (Lost in Space). Anne with an E actress Kiawentiio Tarbell will be playing Katara, while Ian Ousley plays her brother Sokka. Dallas Liu will be playing Aang’s archnemesis (for the first few seasons, at least), and Elizabeth Yu will act as the power-crazed firebender Azula.

The trailer for the series will differ from the M. Night Shyamalan movie released in 2010, with the main difference being the coverage of the events. The 2010 movie showed select scenes in the first season of the animated series. The highlights of the film were Episodes 19 and 20, The Siege of the North.

This time, however, fans of the much-beloved children’s show will see all important characters and events from Episode 1 until 20 of Book 1:Water.

Tina Fey’s Mean Girls Revenge Party Almost Didn’t Make It to Netflix

Tina Fey is back with a new spin on the popular teen comedy movie. This time, Cady Heron, the role formerly held previously by Lindsay Lohan, will be taking on “new” friends and enemies.

In this remake of a musical remake of the film, Angourie Rice (Every Day, Honor Society) will take on Lindsay’s mantle as she goes through the hellscape of high school, aptly represented by a trio of ladies called “The Plastics”.

Fey’s new take on the film is a combination of the Tony nominated Broadway musical and the first film. The comedian-actress who also worked as SNL’s senior writer aims to capture the popularity of the first movie. In a separate interview, she talks about how she approached Paramount and their initial disbelief to her pitch.

Fey further elaborates that the movie isn’t purely comical, and that there will be moments the audience can connect to the characters.

Tina Fey also makes an appearance in the movie. Mean Girls Revenge Party is streaming on Netflix.

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Teaser Trailer features the Spengler family and the Original Ghostbusters

Sony just release the teaser trailer of Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and for at least 100 seconds, you’d think that the trailer is about a superhero film, since the video features an unseen villain with the power to freeze anything including the power to create ice spikes that’s so strong that it can pierce thru a car and even lift it atleast 4 feet off the ground.
