Argylle director Matthew Vaughn revealed that his newest action comedy will be “destroying” spy tropes seen in popular espionage movies like the James Bond franchise.In an interview with Vanity Fair, Vaughn discussed the “pretty dumb” tropes that audiences have been customarily seeing in most spy movies such as “handsome spies” in suits, who ironically instantly attract attention, even though they’re supposed to be stealthy and inconspicuous during secret missions. The filmmaker promised that Universal Pictures’ upcoming Argylle film will be different from other movies in the same genre by subverting common spy tropes, which Vaughn is also guilty of using in his Kingsman franchise.”As I said, I’m guilty of handsome spies with great haircuts and wonderfully cut suits. In reality, if you’re a spy, it’s a pretty dumb thing to do,” Vaughn pointed out. “You’re going to be the guy that gets noticed in the room. A good spy should be the person you least expect the spy to be. And that’s what this movie is all about. It’s like Roger Moore said about James Bond—what sort of spy walks into a room and everyone knows his name and what he likes to drink? It’s ridiculous. We’re having fun destroying these tropes.”RELATED: REPORT: Matthew Vaughn Attached to the DC Universe in Some Capacity
