Covert ops have never been so much fun. Featuring one of the casts of 2024 —(deep breath) Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O’Hara, Dua Lipa, Ariana DeBose, John Cena and Samuel L. Jackson— super-cool spy thriller-comedy Argylle is coming to cinemas on February 1.
To celebrate, on the evening of Thursday 25 January at a central London location, we are giving Empire VIP members the chance to experience the mind-bending action one week before the film comes out. Not only that but director Matthew Vaughn will be there in person for an exclusive Q&A. Alfie the cat demands your presence. Don’t delay.
