"The Day of the Jackal’: Eddie Redmayne To Star & Exec Produce Sky & Peacock Original Series"

Geektown, March 21st, 2023.

Academy, Tony, and BAFTA award-winning actor Eddie Redmayne is set to star in and exec produce ‘The Day of the Jackal‘, a new Original series for Sky in the UK and Peacock in the USA.

This adaptation of ‘The Day of the Jackal’? is a bold, modern reimagining of the beloved and respected novel and film. While staying true to the DNA of the original story, this contemporary drama will delve deeper into the chameleon-like “anti-hero” at the heart of the story in a high-octane, cinematic, globetrotting “cat and mouse” thriller, set amidst the turbulent geo-political landscape of our time.

Eddie Redmayne, who takes the lead role, has most recently received critical acclaim leading to BAFTA, SAG and Golden Globe nominations for his chilling performance in Netflix’s?‘The Good Nurse’, starring opposite Jessica Chastain. He is also well known for his Academy Award-winning performance ‘in?The Theory of Everything’?and?has starred in award-winning projects including?‘The Trial of The Chicago Seven’, ‘The Danish Girl’? and?‘Les?Miserables’.?Last year, Redmayne returned to the stage to lead the electrifying West End revival of Cabaret alongside Academy Award nominee Jessie Buckley. The actor helped initiate the project and starred as The Emcee, for which he went on to win the Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Musical. The show won a record-breaking seven Olivier awards total including Musical Revival.

Irish screenwriter and novelist Ronan Bennett, creator and writer of the critically acclaimed global hit?‘Top Boy’, is attached as writer and showrunner, and adapts the story based on the seminal Frederick Forsyth thriller and subsequent award-winning 1973 film adaptation of the same name from Universal Pictures.?Bennett’s writing credits also include the BBC One series?‘Gunpowder’ starring Kit Harrington, as well as various screenplays for films such as ‘Public Enemies’ starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. Internationally award-winning Director Brian Kirk, whose television credits include?’Game of Thrones’,?‘Luther’, ‘Boardwalk Empire’?and the feature film?’21 Bridges’?is set to direct the series.

‘The Day of the Jackal’ will be produced by ‘Downton Abbey’ and?‘The Last Kingdom’ producers Carnival Films, which is part of Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group and?was commissioned by Sky Studios and Peacock.

‘The Day of the Jackal‘ does not yet have a premiere date, but will air on Sky in the UK and Peacock in the USA. If you want to keep track of this or any other show, you can add it via our Never Miss system, and you’ll be notified when it gets a UK premiere date.

so yeahhh.

feel free to use it if you want or not.

it's just a vague weird thing i spiralled on once and kept in my notes for future fic things, i guess.

I finally sat down with the books and sketched out a rough timeline of events (I was going absolutely insane not knowing how many years had passed/how long they had known each other/about how old they should be). I'm assuming most fanfic writers already have their own timeline to reference, but in case anyone never got to it, here you go:
