The upcoming Argylle flick starring Henry Cavill and Dua Lipa is being promoted in the weirdest way at a soccer match of Chelsea today.

Dua Lipa, ‘Argylle’, and a Bizarre “Circus” Chant: Chelsea vs Fulham Turns Into a Mayhem at Stamford Bridge

The marketing team of Argylle just tried to pull a publicity stunt at an ongoing
soccer game at Stamford Bridge, which has epically backfired. It is being
reported that a group of men dressed up as Henry Cavill
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/]’s avatar from the upcoming
espionage mystery thriller keep standing up in the front-row seats at the
stadium to hold up posters of the movie and for some reason, even brushing their
teeth at one point!

Fans are understandably enraged by the disruption and are chanting “circus” in
unison! The whole debacle would be considered even more embarrassing if reports
of Dua Lipa being present at the stadium ended up being true! The Chelsea vs.
Fulham match is now in its second half, while the perplexing maneuver is being
debated as a controversial advertisement move on social media platforms.

Just a few days ago, the film and Chelsea FC were both criticized for trying to
pull something similar!


ARGYLLE X CHELSEA FC: THE UNEXPLAINED CROSSOVER

Before the Argylle crew and Chelsea FC hatched this peculiar plan, they did a
little test run of this collaboration earlier this week. Two days ago, the
historic club’s X (previously Twitter) page shared an image of its star
center-mid Enzo Fernández sporting the trademark Argylle backpack.

It is unclear why the flick is choosing this club in particular to sponsor their
promotions. However, it is commonly known that its lead actress, Dua Lipa is a
huge soccer fanatic and Liverpool FC supporter. Since she has no affiliation
with Chelsea FC, these unexpected antics are simply confusing the club’s fans.

The accessory was obviously part of the promotional streak that its headlining
cast is currently on. 


HENRY CAVILL AND DUA LIPA ARE PROMOTING THE SPY FLICK IN FULL SWING

To highlight the flick’s upcoming release on 2nd February, Cavill and Lipa are
making no reserve in efforts. The ‘One Kiss’ singer even brought it up at the
81st Golden Globe Award ceremony

last week during a conversation about her contribution to Barbie. Meanwhile, The
Witcher [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/] actor announced a
trans-Pacific trip to promote the film!

Apparently, the cast of the Matthew Vaughn-directed film is heading to Seol next
for its promotions. Unlike today’s disastrous attempt, Asian fans are probably
looking forward to this. Maybe Argylle’s team needs to keep focusing on choosing
the right forum for promotion from now on.
