AMC+ has released a new trailer for the upcoming revenge thriller series “Kill Jackie,” which will premiere exclusively on AMC+ Oct. 2, with new episodes airing weekly.
The eight-episode series stars Catherine Zeta-Jones and is based on the acclaimed novel The Price You Pay by best-selling author Nick Harkaway, writing as Aidan Truhen.
The series is centered on Jackie Price (Zeta-Jones), who has been living a luxurious existence for the last 20 years — traveling the world, selling fine art and, above all, trying to stay anonymous after escaping a dangerous past as an international drug smuggler.
But just as life starts to feel a little boring, it takes a sudden lethal turn when she discovers that The Seven Demons, a squad of the world’s most terrifying hitmen, have been hired to kill her. Assuming someone from her past is behind it, Jackie unleashes her old instincts and embarks on a wild, dangerous game plan: to take down The Demons one by one before they kill her. However, she soon realizes her own demons are much more terrifying than the ruthless killers on her trail.
Appearing alongside Zeta-Jones in the series are Daniel Ings, Sidse Babett Knudsen, Óscar Jaenada, Hattie Hook, Darci Shaw, Raff Law, Enzo Cilenti and others.
“Kill Jackie” is co-produced by Fremantle and Steel Springs Pictures and co-created by Conor Keane, Tom Butterworth, Peter Lawson and Damon Thomas. Thomas also is lead director, with writer and showrunner Tom Butterworth. Keane co-wrote the TV adaptation and is associate producer. Nick Harkaway serves as executive consultant on the series.
