He disappears in crowds. He kills without warning. And now, he’s back.
In this sleek reimagining of the classic political thriller, Eddie Redmayne transforms into “The Jackal” — a master of disguise, a ghost with a rifle, and the most lethal freelance assassin on Earth. Tasked with executing a high-value political figure, the Jackal must outwit a relentless MI6 agent (Lashana Lynch) across a Europe built on surveillance, secrets, and shifting loyalties.
🎯 A slow-burn, high-tension thriller rooted in precision, paranoia, and quiet menace
🧊 Eddie Redmayne delivers icy calm and surgical cruelty — both human and unknowable
🕵️ Lashana Lynch is fierce, brilliant, and three steps behind… until she isn’t
🎞️ Fake passports, sniper nests, encrypted phones, ghost trails through Berlin and Paris
💬 “He’s not a man. He’s a method.”
