The spy action comedy Argylle was released into UK cinemas today (February 2) – check out the full list of songs included on the soundtrack below.

The film is directed by Matthew Vaughn (the Kingsman series, Kick-Ass), and stars Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, Dua Lipa, John Cena and Samuel L. Jackson.

Set in the same universe as the Kingsman films, the plot of the film revolves around a reclusive author (Dallas Howard) who realises that the spy novel she is writing is mirroring events in the real world.

The film was written by Jason Fuchs, who has previously worked on Wonder Woman and Pan. It had initially been reported that the book was based on the novel Argylle by Elly Conway; however, the trailer later revealed Conway to be the film’s protagonist.

Some Taylor Swift fans later speculated that the singer was the inspiration for the book and film, or that she had even written the book under the pen-name of Elly Conway. Swift is known to like to wear argyle sweaters and she loves Scottish Fold cats, which feature prominently in the film. This theory was later dismissed by Vaughn.

In a three-star review of the film, NME wrote: “There’s plenty more to enjoy here, including Howard’s cleverly layered performance and Bryan Cranston’s witty villain Ritter, but Argylle is hampered by strange pacing and a bloated 139-minute runtime. Because it takes too long to become truly gripping, it ends up overstaying its welcome during the last few big reveals.”

What songs feature on the Argylle soundtrack?

The film’s score has been composed by the Scottish producer Lorne Balfe, who is known for also composing for multiple Mission: Impossible films, as well as Black Widow, Gran Turismo and Terminator Genisys.

In addition, the film’s end credits feature the original song ‘Electric Energy’, a disco pop song by West Side Story actress Ariana DeBose, alongside Boy George and Nile Rodgers. The track was produced by Rodgers and written by Vaughn, Balfe, Gary Barlow and Stuart Price, and it is said to have been inspired by the disco artist Sylvester.

DeBose also performs the film’s other original track, ‘Now and Then (Argylle Symphony)’.
