The Jackal is seen driving a white Alfa Romeo Spider
Synopsis
The Jackal is an elusive assassin who makes his living from hit-and-runs for the highest fee. He soon meets a determined British intelligence officer who tracks him down in a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe.
The Graham Norton Show stars: Denzel Washington / Paul Mescal / Saoirse Ronan / Eddie Redmayne / Blossoms (2024)
In the film The Day of the Jackal (1973), The Jackal also drives a white Alfa Romeo, albeit an earlier model. Eddy is incredibly good in this show, as he does everything he can get his hands on.
Nevertheless, this show is one of the best on TV right now because of Eddy’s performance
The MI6 agent is very flawed, she’s not scary, she’s not competent, and she gets way too much airtime. The whole show could have been more engaging if we had just the Jackal, but as he is; Eddie is carrying an MI6 agent whose name I don’t understand because he’s so forgettable.
Take your time, I have the attention span of a goldfish
The story isn’t exactly complicated, but other than the MI6 agent, the rest of the cast is amazing. They don’t spend a lot of time on drama, most of it is spent on the Jackal, which is why this show is amazing.
