Join Academy Award-winning actor Eddie Redmayne for an exclusive screening of the penultimate episode (109) of his new spy-thriller series on Peacock, The Day of the Jackal, followed by a conversation.
From his Oscar-winning performance as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything to his musical turn in Broadway’s Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, Eddie Redmayne can seemingly take on any role under the sun. In The Day of the Jackal, Redmayne plays an elusive spy assassin, who is a master of disguise, to thrilling results. Premiering on Peacock Thursday, November 14, The Day of the Jackal, follows an elusive assassin, the Jackal (Redmayne), who meets his match in a tenacious British intelligence officer (Lashana Lynch). The series is an action-packed, cat-and-mouse chase across Europe — a sleek, 21st century update on the classic 1973 big screen spy thriller. Following a screening of the series, hear Redmayne discuss the making of the series — the development of his character, taking on a new kind of role in a spy thriller, stories from the set, and more.
