Our favorite magizoologist’s career REALLY took a left turn! Eddie Redmayne and Lashana Lynch sat down with me to talk about assassins, accents and all the adventures of filming their new series.

“The Day of the Jackal” is a brand new thriller based on the classic 1971 book by Frederick Forsyth about a lone wolf and his global scale threat. The official synopsis: An unrivalled and highly elusive lone assassin, the Jackal (Eddie Redmayne), makes his living carrying out hits for the highest fee. But following his latest kill, he meets his match in a tenacious British intelligence officer (Lashana Lynch) who starts to track down the Jackal in a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe, leaving destruction in its wake. With a fresh twist on the source material, including the subsequent award-winning 1973 film from Universal Pictures, “The Day of the Jackal” promises a chase across the world as the hunter becomes the hunted.
