New article: The Day of the Jackal: Who is Eddie Redmayne?

As he takes on the role of the ultimate assassin, here’s everything you need to know about The Day of the Jackal’s leading man, Eddie Redmayne.

Who is Eddie Redmayne?

Eddie Redmayne, born in 1982, is a British actor born and raised in London, England.

His great-grandfather, Sir Richard Redmayne, was a civil and mining engineer, credited for his work in improving mine safety and for his advocacy of the benefits of a five-day working week on employees, helping make weekends a more standard practice.

Wanting to perform from an early age, he attended Jackie Palmer Stage School from the age of 10 and made his screen debut in an episode of kids TV series Animal Ark in 1998.

He later landed a music scholarship at the esteemed Eton College, attending the same year as Prince William.

Going on to study at Cambridge University, he made his professional debut as an actor at Shakespeare’s Globe in 2003 in a production of Twelfth Night.

From that point on, he established himself as one to watch on the British stage and later pivoted to film, where he took on dramatic roles in films including 2007’s Elizabeth: The Golden Age, The Other Boleyn Girl and The Yellow Handkerchief in 2008, and My Week with Marilyn in 2011.

In 2012, Redmayne grew international acclaim for portraying Marius in Tom Hooper’s Les Miserables, and two years later landed his first Oscar for his portrayal of Stephen Hawking in biopic The Theory of Everything.

He continues to act on both stage and screen, earning another Oscar nomination in 2015 for his role of Lili Elbe in The Danish Girl, and leading the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them franchise as Newt Scamander.

The Day of the Jackal is his first major TV role in 12 years.

On stage, he has most recently led revivals of Cabaret in the West End and Broadway, starring as the elusive and mysterious Emcee.

He has been married to wife Hannah Bagshawe since 2014, and together they have two children.

Who does Eddie Redmayne play in The Day of the Jackal?

The Jackal is a notorious assassin who lives a normal double life away from his murderous career path.

A natural chameleon, The Jackal has an innate ability to blend in with a crowd and change his appearance at will, meaning his targets never see him coming.

He is a man who prefers to work alone, considering each of his missions an art form.

Little is known about the character as we’re introduced to him, with his ability to camouflage himself leaving him free to do his work undetected.

The role was portrayed by Edward Fox in the 1973 movie adaptation of the story.

Where have I seen Eddie Redmayne before?

Eddie Redmayne has become one of the most sought-after British stars in the world, with an enviable list of previous projects.

Here are some of his most notable roles to date:

My Week With Marilyn (2011) - Colin Clark

Based on the memoir of Colin Clark, My Week With Marilyn follows the aspiring filmmaker as he travels to London in 1956 to land a job with the celebrated Laurence Olivier.

Landing a position on The Prince and The Showgirl, Colin finds himself working as an assistant and pseudo-protector of the iconic Marilyn Monroe (played by Michelle Williams), who is having trouble in her personal life and marriage to Arthur Miller.

Across a fateful week, Colin and Marilyn grow closer as the Hollywood star adjusts to England, her current life, and her work with Olivier.

Les Miserables (2012) - Marius Pontmercy

Based on the book by Victor Hugo, Les Miserables is an adaptation of the musical of the same name.

Redmayne plays Marius Pontmercy, a compassionate young man who is a member of the revolutionary group, Friends of the ABC.

He instantly falls in love with Cosette, the adopted daughter of leading man Jean Valjean, upon meeting her.

This causes the heartbreak of his best friend Eponine, who is secretly in love with him.

Devoted to both his cause and his love, Marius is torn on his loyalties as the revolution turns violent and he leads the rebels on the barricades.

The Theory of Everything (2014) - Stephen Hawking

This biographical drama depicts the early life and first marriage of the legendary Stephen Hawking, detailing his work, health, and romantic life.

First meeting Hawking as an astrophysics student at the University of Cambridge, he meets young literature student Jane Wilde and falls in love.

Together, they will navigate the success of his career and his diagnosis with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a progressive form of motor neurone disease that leads to slurred speech, muscle stiffness, and difficulty breathing.

The incurable and eventually fatal disease would eventually confine Hawking to a wheelchair, where he would communicate via a computer for the rest of his life.

The show is based on the 2007 memoir Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen written by Jane, who married Hawking in 1965.

The Theory of Everything is available now on Sky and NOW.

The Danish Girl (2015) - Lili Elbe

The Danish Girl is a story loosely inspired by the lives of Danish painter Lili Elbe – who became one of the first recorded people to have gender-affirming surgery.

Lili’s story inspired the novel of the same title by David Ebershoff.

Starting the story in the mid-1920s, The Danish Girl tracks the awakening of Lili’s transgender identity.

Married to portrait artist Gerda Wegener (Alicia Vikander), Lili comes out as transgender after posing as a woman for one of her wife’s paintings.

The film tracks the barriers Lili had to face in order to get the surgery, and the support Gerda was throughout the transition.

The Danish Girl  is available now on Sky and NOW

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) - Newt Scamander

An extension of the Harry Potter Wizarding World, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them follows Newt Scamander decades before the original Harry Potter series.

Newt is a ‘magizoologist’ who travels the globe to document the wizarding world’s magical creatures but finds himself in trouble in 1926 New York City when his suitcase gets into the wrong hands, with animals let loose across the human city.

Now he’s on a mission to gather them all or risk exposing the entire wizarding world – but as he does so, he finds himself dealing with growing unrest that could prove a more devastating threat on the world as they know it.

The franchise has since had two more installments: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald in 2016, and Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore in 2018.

The Trial of the Chicago Seven (2020) - Tom Hayden

Based on true events that occurred in 1968, The Trial of the Chicago Seven follows seven men as they are arrested and charged with "crossing state lines" to incite a riot during an anti-Vietnam protest at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

As the trial gets underway, it becomes apparent the judge has a prejudice against them, with ongoing issues, stunts, and uncovering of brutality turning the courtroom into a circus.

The film was widely praised and was even nominated for six Oscars, including Best Picture, at the 2021 Academy Awards, as well as three Baftas and five Golden Globes.

The Trial of the Chicago Seven is available to watch on Netflix....

The Day of the Jackal coming 7 November exclusively on Sky Atlantic and NOW.

(Biographical movies that I enjoyed watching)

[afrenchaugurey]

I just began to watch the trial of the Chicago 7 and I'm startled about ER's voice ... how very different it feels (I guess that's why it took me years to recognize him in movies. I usually click with the voices)

Also it will be a nice watch which should remind me my essay about Vietnam War representation in cinema, that I wrote back to 2001 (do I feel old ? Absolutly)

I need to put my hands in his hair.

I think the institutions of our democracy are wonderful things that right now are populated by some terrible people.
