Box Office: ‘Argylle’ to Dethrone ‘Mean Girls’ With $15 Million-Plus Debut
Matthew Vaughn's spy comedy 'Argylle' is poised to conquer the box office despite lackluster ticket sales.
It marks Apple’s third big-screen bet following Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” (which debuted to $23 million) and Ridley Scott’s “Napoleon” (which opened to $20.6). And while it’ll likely be knocked down on box office charts by “Madame Web” or “Bob Marley: One Love” when those movies open on Feb. 14, the splashy send-up of James Bond won’t have direct competition until “Dune Part II” debuts in March. Vaughn, whose bona fides include “The Kingsman” trilogy and “X-Men: First Class,” directed “Argylle,” which stars Bryce Dallas Howard as the reclusive author of a popular series of espionage novels.
