As a seasoned viewer of films and television series, I must admit that I find myself intrigued by the recent buzz surrounding “The Day of The Jackal”. With my years of immersion in various genres, I can confidently say that this modern take on the classic story has piqued my curiosity.


At a premiere for his latest thriller series, The Day of the Jackal, on Thursday, Eddie Redmayne and his wife Hannah Bagshawe graced the red carpet with their impressive fashion sense.

In a stylish black-and-white color-block short-sleeve top, the 42-year-old actor, known for his role as the elusive assassin Jackal in the series, presented an intelligent appearance.

He paired a shirt with black, wide-legged tailored pants and stood on the red carpet alongside his wife of ten years for a photo.

Simultaneously, Hannah, his stylish spouse at 41 years old, was quite stunning in a black polo neck and a sleek, vibrant red leather pencil skirt.

Hannah chose to accentuate her red carpet style by wearing transparent black stockings and boosting her stature with a pair of sleek black pumps.

Additionally present was Lashana Lynch, Eddie’s fellow actor, aged 36, who portrays the character Bianca – a relentless British intelligence officer who pursues the Jackal in an exhilarating game of cat and mouse across various European cities.

Lashana’s face was filled with joy, shining brightly, as she proudly displayed her growing belly in a sleek, long black turtleneck dress.

She enhanced her stature by donning a pair of sleek black leather stilettos and complemented the look with eye-catching silver earrings as an additional touch.

The premiere of ‘The Day Of The Jackal‘ occurred on Sky Atlantic and NOW on November 7th. This thriller series has drawn mixed opinions from critics, with some finding the reboot featuring Eddie Redmayne to be genuinely captivating, while others have labeled it as uninteresting and without purpose.

Eddie plays the role of Jackal, an evasive assassin known for executing contracts at top dollar. However, he encounters a formidable opponent in a relentless British agent who doggedly pursues him in a heart-pounding game of cat and mouse throughout Europe.

According to The Telegraph, they found the modern revival of the storyline, featuring Eddie’s character, to be particularly captivating while providing their evaluation.

Jasper Rees gave the series a 4 out of 5 stars and commented: ‘Although the central chase scene occasionally falters and loses momentum, Redmayne’s unique portrayal is captivating.’

According to the Irish Independent, The Day Of The Jackal is considered lengthy and somewhat unfocused, featuring numerous characters that some may find unengaging.

Pat Stacey expressed that ‘This Day of the Jackal’ deviates from expectation. It’s extensive and loose, featuring numerous dull characters, an excess of mundane home scenarios, and the customary excessive, implausible gunfights and automobile pursuits.

Meanwhile, as reported by Rebecca Cook from Digital Spy, The Day Of The Jackal is a ‘hard-to-stop, yet traditional viewing experience’.

Critics’ feedback on the new series arrived following Eddie’s statement about seldom interacting with his co-star Lashana on set, even though they both played prominent roles.

The actor and actress joined host Nick Grimshaw, 40, on BBC Radio 1 last month.

Instead, Eddie shared that the best aspect of his job has been promoting the series, since it allows him to socialize and spend quality time with his partner.

Eddie mentioned that despite both of them being part of the series, they rarely had chances to meet during production as he put it, ‘Though Lashana and I share screen time, we seldom crossed paths while we were filming it.’

‘Because it was kind of a cat and mouse story and we’re kept apart for a huge amount of it.’ 

He admitted that the enjoyable part for him was the camaraderie since they had opportunities to socialize and spend quality time with one another.

Lashana concurred with Eddie’s remark, stating, “Indeed, given our roles as producers, we’ve spent an entire year discussing every intricate detail of the show.

We’ve watched every step, every alteration and transition throughout this process, and it’s been truly delightful growing familiar with one another in the process.

As a devoted admirer, I shared with the radio host my reasons behind joining the latest adaptation of the classic film and novel series.

Initially reluctant to take part, Eddie expressed his affection for both the initial film and the novel from his childhood.

Upon receiving the scripts, I felt a great deal of apprehension since no one wants to ruin something they cherish.

After reviewing the revised script, he admitted, “It seems the story has been brought up-to-date, and these scripts are incredibly engaging. They felt entirely original and fresh.

However, while it underwent changes, it preserved the essence of what made the original great – a game of chase with an underlying cat-and-mouse dynamic. Moreover, Jackal is essentially a chameleon, able to transform, so you’ll never predict exactly what he will become next.

According to an IMDB summary, the series follows a thrilling pursuit for a mysterious, highly-skilled assassin, codenamed ‘The Jackal.’

In a different rendition, Eddie portrays the elusive Jackal figure, while Lashana’s character spearheads the mission to unmask his true identity.

Prior to the premiere, the actor who stars as James Bond in No Time To Die recently shared insights on playing the character Bianca with Entertainment Weekly just last month.

She conveyed: “She’s incredibly dedicated to portraying an unusual kind of real-life superhero. Unusual, because it encompasses qualities that might seem questionable or inappropriate for someone striving to make the world a better place.

Her methodology in executing her tasks inevitably leads to some reduction or compromise, and regrettably for her, this trade-off and mental exertion are indeed significant enough to be worthwhile.

Regarding both her character and Jackal, Lashana stated: “There’s a striking resemblance between those who work for good and those who work for evil. Ultimately, they’re all just performing their respective duties.
