The Day of the Jackal premieres November 7 on Peacock (US) and Sky (UK).

Based on the novel by Frederick Forsyth and the 1973 film adaptation by Universal, the series follows an unparalleled and highly elusive lone assassin, the Jackal (Redmayne), who makes his living carrying out assassinations for the highest price.

But after his latest murder, he meets his match in a tough British intelligence officer (Lynch) who tracks the Jackal on a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe, leaving destruction in his wake. Reimagined as a contemporary story set amid today’s turbulent geopolitical landscape, the new version will delve deeper into the chameleonic antihero.
