The Day of the Jackal (2024), a modern reimagining of the classic novel and 1973 film, promises a gripping thriller filled with political intrigue, deadly assassins, and high-stakes espionage. The Sky original series follows a notorious and elusive contract killer known only as “The Jackal,” hired to carry out one of the most daring assassinations in modern history. With intense action, complex characters, and edge-of-your-seat suspense, the trailer sets up a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game between the assassin and those trying to stop him.

He trailer begins with an introduction to the political backdrop: a volatile Europe where extremist groups threaten the stability of governments. Amid this chaos, a mysterious figure—the Jackal—receives a contract to assassinate a high-ranking political leader. Played by a charismatic yet chilling actor, the Jackal is seen meticulously planning his attack, studying his target’s every move. His calm demeanor and methodical approach make him an even more terrifying figure. The use of drones, modern surveillance, and cutting-edge technology gives the story a contemporary edge, adding to the tension.

Meanwhile, the trailer introduces the team tasked with stopping the Jackal. Led by a veteran French investigator and a young, ambitious MI6 agent, the task force races against time to uncover the assassin’s identity and prevent the assassination. As they close in on clues, the Jackal always seems to be one step ahead, leaving a trail of bodies in his wake. One of the more intense moments in the trailer shows the team discovering a safe house just minutes after the Jackal has escaped, with evidence of his deadly plans strewn around the room.
Throughout the trailer, we see the Jackal using multiple disguises and identities, slipping in and out of countries undetected. The tension builds as the political leader makes public appearances, unaware of the deadly sniper lurking in the shadows. In one heart-stopping sequence, the Jackal assembles his sniper rifle in a high-rise building, aiming at a motorcade far below, as the task force desperately tries to locate his position.

The trailer ends on a cliffhanger, with the Jackal in his final position, seconds away from pulling the trigger, as the investigators close in on his location. The screen cuts to black, leaving viewers in suspense about whether they will stop him in time.
