But following his latest kill, he meets his match in a tenacious British intelligence officer who starts to track down the Jackal in a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe, leaving destruction in its wake.
Along with Redmayne and Lynch, Peacock’s makeover of Forsyth’s novel will also include a starring performance from Úrsula Corberó with an ensemble that includes Charles Dance , Chukwudi Iwuji , Richard Dormer , Khalid Abdalla , Jonjo O’Neill , Lia Williams , Eleanor Matsuura , Florisa Kamara , Nick Blood , and Sule Rimi .
