The reality-bending spy film Argylle has a star-studded cast that includes Bryce Dallas Howard, John Cena, Bryan Cranston, Ariana DeBose, Catherine O’Hara and Samuel L. Jackson. Making its debut alongside them in a supporting role is the Williams SportJet 520, which the filmmakers used for a chase scene along the River Thames in England.

The SportJet 520’s nearly 42-knot top speed adds to the thrills of the film, which centers on a reclusive author whose quiet life takes an exciting turn as the espionage plots from her novels mirror real-life spy activities.

A red carpet, the River Thames is not, but the gray-blue color is fine by Tom Dowdell, head of marketing at Williams Jet Tenders: “We are thrilled about Argylle and the debut of our SportJet on the big screen in such an exciting new film.”
