Scenario

The Jackal is an elusive assassin who makes a living by carrying out hit-and-runs for the highest fee. He soon meets his match in a tenacious British intelligence officer, who follows him on a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe.. "The Day of the Jackal" the novel took place in 1963 and involved an assassination attempt on then-President of France Charles de Gaulle.

I love everything Eddie Redmayne is into

The show moves the setting to the present day.. Referenced in Graham Norton and guests: Denzel Washington/Paul Mescal/Saoirse Ronan/Eddie Redmayne/Blossoms (2024). He has a vulnerability that makes me want to dig deeper into the characters.

Neither the acting nor her on-screen persona is worth it

Here, as a cold-blooded assassin, it’s a stretch, IMHO, but it makes sense as a «hidden in plain sight» one. As others have already pointed out, the female lead just ruined it for me. Why she keeps getting badass female roles is a mystery to me.

Her character doesn’t help her case either

We have so many other talented actors to choose from. I didn’t think much of her in Captain Marvel, she even liked wearing the 007 number even less, and now she just ruins the scenes every time she appears. I’ll see the series through to the end, but…

Season 2 has already been renewed

so sad that this series won’t be getting a revival. I don’t know how the story will play out yet, but I hope to change the character of Bianca somehow.
