MOVIE
Bryce Dallas Howard "Korea, the home of K-beauty, is 20 years ahead of the curve."
On the 18th, a press conference for the movie 'Argyle' was held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Saemunan-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul. Actors Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Sam Rockwell attended. Director Matthew Vaughn, who was originally scheduled to visit Korea, was unable to attend on this day due to health issues.
'Argyle' is an action blockbuster in which author Ellie, who becomes a target of spies around the world when her spy novel becomes a reality, writes the next chapter of the novel to escape the crisis and visits legendary agent Argyle in reality.
Henry Cavill plays the role of legendary spy Argyle in the novel written by best-selling author Ellie. Bryce Dallas Howard played Ellie, the best-selling author of the spy novel 'Argyle.' Sam Rockwell played Aiden, a real-life spy with a messy, medium-length hairstyle and beard who was completely different from the perfect spy Ellie had imagined.
Bryce Dallas Howard said, "I've wanted to come to Korea my whole life. (This time) I only got to come for a few days. My daughter came too and celebrated her 12th birthday here. I asked her what she thought of going to the beauty capital of the world. Thank you for inviting me. “I did,” he said about his visit to Korea.
Bryce Dallas Howard said, "I think you are armed with a spirit of challenge. You will be able to have a sensational, fun, exciting and unimaginable experience. I would like to humbly ask you to do this. It is a wild and ingenious movie, and it is coming to Korean audiences for the first time. “I hope you enjoy it. It’s a movie that suits Korea,” he said.
Bryce Dallas Howard expressed satisfaction with working with director Matthew Vaughn. He said, "I consider myself lucky. I auditioned many years ago. It was an ecstatic experience. I felt that this director was original and doing something new and exciting. I wanted to do that project. A few years later, I saw the director for 'Rocketman'. “I produced it, and I met him there before,” he said.
Bryce Dallas Howard expressed her interest and affection for K-beauty. He said, “K-beauty, K-beauty, K-beauty.” He said, “Korea is a great country. It seems like it’s 20 years ahead of its time. I think you guys are doing a good job. Especially skin care.”
‘Argyle’ will be released on February 7th.
