Apple and Vaughn have a working relationship already, with the company having acquired the biopic Tetris: The Movie.
Apple is on the cusp of adding another huge film to its streaming platforms, as Deadline is reporting that Apple Original Films is closing on the worldwide film rights to Argylle, the next film directed by Matthew Vaughn.
Argylle is based on a soon-to-be-launched spy novel of the same name from Ellie Conway and follows the world’s greatest spy as he gets caught up in a globe-trotting adventure.
According to the report, Apple is set to close the deal somewhere around the $200 million mark, and while it is only a deal for one picture, the company hopes that it will be successful enough to launch a franchise.
