Taylor Swift Did Not Write the Argylle Book, So Why Do Swifties Think She Did?
Some of the evidence is actually compelling.
All we know is the author goes by the pseudonym Elly Conway (the same name as Howard’s character; Vaughn’s film is a meta take on the novel), she was born and raised in New York, she wrote her first book while she was waitressing at a late-night diner, and she is working on more in the Argylle universe. Taylor Swift’s fans started in on the Argylle mystery not long after the film’s trailer — poppy and colorful and set to Elvis’s “Suspicious Minds,” with the likes of Dua Lipa, Henry Cavill, and Samuel L. Jackson appearing alongside Howard — featured a Scottish fold in a backpack, an image that is essential to Swiftian iconography. No, in that this all feels like a shameless ploy to incite the curiosity of a fanbase that recently helped make a certain concert film very theatrically successful and that could argue that Taylor Swift lives in my home with just enough clues (the presence of a single dollar, the Joe Alwyn vehicle The Souvenir Part II on Blu-ray, and 1989 on vinyl).
