The Day of the Jackal (2024) is a thrilling new crime drama series with a spectacular star-studded cast. When a highly skilled assassin kills a high-profile political figure, a global search for the killer means he becomes one of the most wanted people alive. This limited series from Sky Studios in the UK and Universal reimagines the classic 1973 film, which was in turn adapted from the 1971 novel of the same name by Frederick Forsyth.
