Eddie Redmayne Will Reprise Assassin Role in The Day of the Jackal Season 2

As a seasoned gamer and binge-watcher of thrilling series, let me tell you that the news about Eddie Redmayne returning for Season 2 of “The Day of the Jackal” has sent my adrenaline soaring! I’ve always been fascinated by the cat-and-mouse games between assassins and the authorities, and this show is right up there with the best of them.

If you’ve been curious, here’s some exciting news: Eddie Redmayne is set to return as the main character in the second season of Peacock and Sky’s series, The Day of the Jackal. In an Instagram post on Thursday, the Academy Award-winning actor expressed his gratitude for viewers’ interest and support for the show. He said, “You know, the Jackal doesn’t like loose ends,” hinting that we can expect to see him again soon in Season 2.

As a seasoned gamer, I can tell you that when the mysterious figure mentioned “loose ends,” he was hinting at the betrayal from those who hired him to take down tech tycoon Ulle Dag Charles in Season 1. Not only did he not receive the $100 million payment for a tough job well done, but his secret family life was also exposed, making it a very risky move to double-cross such a skilled assassin as the Jackal.

Will Eddie Redmayne return for The Day of the Jackal Season 2?

Yes, he will! The namesake assassin in the streaming hit will be back for Season 2.

What is The Day of the Jackal about?

The TV series, modeled after Frederick Forsyth’s 1971 novel, revolves around a skilled assassin named Redymane, whose double life is threatened when the British government becomes involved in his violent profession. Chasing the Jackal is Bianca Pullman (Lashana Lynch from ‘No Time to Die’), a determined and tenacious arms specialist who is hot on the trail.

Jackal was created by author Ronan Bennett (known for “Public Enemies”), who also functioned as an executive producer alongside Redmayne, Gareth Neame, Nigel Marchant, Sue Naegle, and series director Brian Kirk. Lynch and Chris Hall served as co-executive producer and producer respectively. In addition, Forsyth provided valuable insights in his role as a consulting producer.
