'Argylle' bombed at box office

'Argylle' failed to meet expectations at the box office with its worldwide collection of $96.1 million against a reported budget of $200 million. It is not yet clear why the film bombed at the box office, but it is clear that interest in the film seemingly wasn't large enough for it to earn the amount of money spent on its production.


Though it failed miserably at the box office,'Argylle' was part of a campaign by the tech money-fueled studio to draw eyes to Apple TV+ by releasing big-budget films from top filmmakers in theaters.

'Agrylle' prequel is under development

However, Apple is not disappointed by the performance of 'Agrylle'. It is ready with a prequel that is already under development. If this movie performs well somehow, there may be more to come for either Argylle or Elly in future installments.

Apple Films will release an untitled Greg Berlanti romantic comedy starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum in theaters in July and the thriller 'Wolfs' starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt will hit theaters in September. Sony Pictures will distribute both films.
