The Jackal drives a white Alfa Romeo Spider
Story
The Jackal is an elusive hitman who makes a living by carrying out top dollar murders. He soon meets a hard-nosed British intelligence officer who tracks him down on a thrilling cat-and-mouse hunt across Europe.
Eddy is explosively good in this series, as he is in everything he touches
In The Jackal (1973), the Jackal also drives a white Alfa Romeo, albeit an older model. Cited in Graham Norton and others: Denzel Washington/Paul Mescal/Saoirse Ronan/Eddie Redmayne/Blossoms (2024).
Despite this, the series is considered one of the best on television today because of Eddy’s performance
The MI6 agent is completely poorly cast, she is not scary, she is not competent and she is given far too much airtime. The whole show could have been more exciting if we only had the Jackal in mind, but here it is: Eddy plays an MI6 agent whose name I forgot because it’s so easy to forget.
That’s not a problem with your time, and I have the attention span of a goldfish
The story isn’t exactly complicated, but aside from the MI6 agent, the rest of the cast is great. They don’t spend a lot of time on drama, most of the time is about the Jackal, and that’s what makes this show so great.

It’s not boring, it’s nonstop (except for the MI6 agent). The new series “Silo” is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
