I was wondering if this had any connection to the Bruce Willis Jackal movie in 97....thank you for the info...probably one of his more underrated movies....also I think one of Jack Blacks first movies
The original with Fox was soooo good. One of my favourites of all time. But I think Redmayne can do it justice. The one with Willis was OK (the scene with him testing his device on Jack Black a little gruesome), entertaining, but I prefer the original.
this is my favourite actor.. couldnt have found a better person that this for such a role.. he is someone who is coming on his own... good , looking forward to this.. re- the neverending supply of put downs below.. ignore them.. he is a class act worthy of a watch.
@@peterparker6584 yeah but too be fair the Bruce Willis "The Jackal" took some cool liberties, the Van mounted heavy machine gun lives rent free in my head lol
@@Taijan1 I thought so. According to my Amazon Alexa device Bruce Willis did not star in the jackal I literally thought he did a movie called The Jackal where he played an assassin
@@peterparker6584 he did. He was the antagonist. The Jackal is a 1997 American action thriller film directed by Michael Caton-Jones, and starring Bruce Willis, Richard Gere, and Sidney Poitier in his final theatrically released film role. The film involves the hunt for a paid assassin. It is a loose take on the 1973 film The Day of the Jackal, which starred Edward Fox, and was based on the 1971 novel of the same name by Frederick Forsyth. Although the film earned mostly negative reviews from critics, it was a commercial success and grossed $159.3 million worldwide against a $60 million budget Don't know what your talking about dude?
The original Jackal Ilyich Ramirez Sanchez was spotted in a Khartoum vegetable market by CIA officer Billy Waugh. They had him under surveillance and found out he was going to his dentist. The dentist put the Jackal under anesthetic and he woke up hooded and chained in a cell.
I swear I saw the EXACT SAME trailer for a David Fincher movie starring Michael Fassbender almost a year ago, called The Killer. Oh right, I did. Same plot, same characters, same trailer... same everything. Did ChatGPT makeup the same script for them both too?
I really hope it focuses on the intelligence, grind and all-round-slog of getting to the hit man, rather than re-imagining it as a generic action movie. The original was unforgettable for showing you just how much it took to find someone, and the steps the assassin took to evade capture
We see a scene of Lashana scurrying about in body armour with some kind of M4 derivative which really casts doubt on your hope and it's a hope I share. Yeah they've made her into some kind of Intelligence Officer and whilst it's feasible she might get embedded with some kind of tactical unit at some point she shouldn't be James-Bonding-It about. It could in theory be exactly as you hope and just have a few sprinklings of very well done 'action' but I'm skeptical.. It's a modern movie, acting and dialogue don't maintain the attention deficit of the mainstream.
Well, they took the character of a White French male detective first played by a White French male actor and cast a Black woman from London? Yeah, I see your point.
And of course you get triggered. Back then, 50 years ago, it was not expected to have a woman be a character leading the hunt for a killer but after the woman who tracked down Bin Landen resulting in him getting killed, the producers thought it might be a good idea to make that adaptation. It probably would attract women to the show.
@@quique2886 Yes, only most women don't like that and don't watch that. Statistic shows. And if she loves an action she wouldn't mind a male playing it. Don't save people from something they never asked saving them from.
@@azmtkdzv I am not saving anybody. The fact is producers want to attract as many eyeballs as possible to their shows. That’s why a black woman was chosen as one of the main characters. The problem they are starting to find is that men are becoming fragile, sensitive about feeling left out by tv producers who are not making them a priority of their tv shows.
Many reasons why we should watch this: 1) Eddie Redmayne, with that grey, misty eyes looks ready as no one else could have. 2) There is every room to improve upon a good story to the modern, internet age. 3) As a series there are some details or essence in the book that could be explored more deeply than in a single movie. 4) Mr Forsyth, reportedly serving as Consulting Producer, would be there to see to it that this will not fail. "Nothing will go wrong, unless it comes from your side". (The Day Of the Jackal, @1971, Frederick Forsyth, Viking Press, p.49)
I loved the Freddie Forsyth book read it long before I ever saw the movie. Never watched the Bruce version, but am a big fan of modern re-makes and you know Eddie and that cast will do it justice. As for peacock, well, only Prime could make a more terrible version of Jack Reacher 😂😊
Don't waste your time & money on this film. Watch the original DAY OF THE JACKAL(1973), starring Edward Fox and Michael Lonsdale, directed by Fred Zinnemann. It's perfection.
JHC, hollywood you just don't get it do you, the original is pure class, story telling is an art not a series of clips made to look good . Depth of character and what makes people tick is a compete anathema to you....
The original was a THINKING MAN'S movie. It'll be so much better now that they've got a Diverse Girl Boss chasing him. Our 'Modern Audience' will applaud it (though they won't go to see it).
@@thomashazlewood4658 Why do you care?! It literally has nothing to do with the movie or the character! You sound like the exact mirror idiot of people who are like “not enough black people in this show eugghh”. Like I’m sorry an actor is a race/gender you don’t like… it’d be one thing if the character HAD to be a white guy for the purpose of the movie but there’s no reason it should or shouldn’t be.

"He never look the same way twice."
Looks exactly the same way throughout the entire trailer.
maybe in the series he does?
you act like you got them. lol
Unless he appeared lots of other times and we just didn't realise because he's a master of disguise
Well if that is the case, that he only looks at one place, he only looked once right?
I had the same thought.
I was joking but I'm pretty sure the Jackal is going to go through some major disguises when he's on the job, so let's see.
Hollywood is dead. You will never beat this original. Go watch it. Brilliant
Watch what?

I totally agree. It was on the other night. Suspenseful, well acted, well directed.
Thank you, I didn't know it was with Bruce willis.
Just watched it and fell in love with it
When I want to disappear into the background, I go for a drive in my yellow Alfa Romeo convertible.
Hahahahaha, good one
Its called 'hiding in plain sight'.
Precisely - you would pick something under the radar like a family car - a Ford Mondeo or Focus perhaps.
But they are quite literally all over the place, like yellow cabs in NYC...lol

I HOPE THIS IS NOT A BLOODY REMAKE OF THE ORIGNAL
EDWARD FOX MADE THIS MOVIE HIS OWN ITS A.CLASSIC JUST LEAVE IT BE
Just release the original 1973 film with Edward Fox. Great film.
Nah, Edward Fox is the only Jackal.
There's actually no need for them to remake this.
1st film was best
Definitely, he is.
Don't forget Michael Lonsdale, the brilliant detective.
@@baileyreport. yes sir, excellent French actor.
Edward fox! 👍
correct! 👍
The original with Fox was soooo good.
One of my favourites of all time.
But I think Redmayne can do it justice.
The one with Willis was OK (the scene with him testing his device on Jack Black a little gruesome), entertaining, but I prefer the original.
But de Gaulle is already dead. And the music is aready from The Accountant. Isnt there another book you can make a movie out of?
If I decide to watch this movie it will only be for Eddie Redmayne
That's what I think. I am afraid it will not live up to the original.
its a tv series!
Only!
True😂
There should be a law against remaking all these classics. NOT NEEDED.
this is my favourite actor.. couldnt have found a better person that this for such a role.. he is someone who is coming on his own... good , looking forward to this.. re- the neverending supply of put downs below.. ignore them.. he is a class act worthy of a watch.
Oh I see. She is playing the DEI hire agent.
If only this wasn’t a remake 50+ years old 😅
I stand corrected. I had to do some digging original was 1973 remake was 1997 and there was a third version in the early 2000s

he woke up chained, but on an airplane headed to US.
Can't wait not to watch it and then watch the original masterpiece
Put whatever disguise on you want, and he'll still look like Eddie Redmayne
With those rubbery gay lips....who made this casting mistake.??.
Great, a DEI version - just the series we've been longing for.
"Make It black, make it gay, make it lame!" - Cartman
With the actress which killed the Bond-Franchise
She wasn't diverse enough...
The trailer is just The Accountant lol
Or the killer
Yeah this song as a trailer song is cooked
The Accountant is just like any other trailer as well. it's a cycle
Finally, a guy who actually looks and can act like an assassin. None of those six foot five, roided-out looking fellas with beards
😂
I want to see a remake of Terminator with Rylan Clarke in the lead role.
Teethinator?
You'll get one when they put a chick in it and make her lame and gay. Not before.

That's exactly the point though, Edward Fox was even more unassuming than Redmayne which is literally the point.

Nothing wrong with the original.
What is the point of this? We already have a classic film of this (classic) book.
Looks good, need to pop in the original this week!
I came straight to the comments to be entertained and have not been disappointed. 😉
Some things really don't need to be remade.
Many reasons why we should watch this:
1) Eddie Redmayne, with that grey, misty eyes looks ready as no one else could have.
2) There is every room to improve upon a good story to the modern, internet age.
3) As a series there are some details or essence in the book that could be explored more deeply than in a single movie.

"Nothing will go wrong, unless it comes from your side". (The Day Of the Jackal, @1971, Frederick Forsyth, Viking Press, p.49)
Brave and courageous to take on the remake of this classic!
I think they can pull it off I think the problem of remakes is under 20 years or no care for the original
Classic? Pretty sure it was 2004 the original .
@@peterparker65841973 the original. Bruce Willis is a remake. All of these are most likely adapted from the book
@@peterparker6584no. The original was 1973.
Day of the Jackal was the original. From 70’s and probably better than this.
What is old is new again. I'm looking forward to this...❤
I wonder why the assassin is not black? That would have been brave and diverse.
Yeah, the assasin as a black woman, that would be the brave diversity.
Real bad guys in these sorts of movies are NEVER diverse.....or jewish.
Black assassin in european countries will stick out like a sore thumb.
The Jackal was a real assassin
They're too afraid in Hollywood to make a movie about the real Jackal.
What's the name of that song playing in the background?
I think the movie was great and a series version could be really interesting if they go into detail
Please No! You cannot remake a masterpiece.
This looks cool. I think I would have liked it to be a period piece set during De Gaulle's reign, but I would watch this.
I enjoyed the Bruce Willis and Richard Gere Jackal film. Which was a remake. I don’t think this is necessary.
I'll watch only if the target is de Gaulle
Or Micron
Evryone losing their mknd over a remake
Looks good to me. Eddie redmayne is a G
What is the name of this song and who is singing, please?
"Everything In Its Right Place" by Radiohead
I loved the Freddie Forsyth book read it long before I ever saw the movie. Never watched the Bruce version, but am a big fan of modern re-makes and you know Eddie and that cast will do it justice.
As for peacock, well, only Prime could make a more terrible version of Jack Reacher 😂😊
Why, the 1972 was the one and only version required!
I still think Bruce Willis’ outfit when he purchased the boat (blue blazer, pink polo shirt was awesome!)
1:04 I can understand why they casted him for the role. I’m coming in with an open mind. So far the gun handling has been on point
Anybody knows the theme? And who's singing, please?
This looks good
“Never looks the same way twice…” Just Eddie’s normal face after that. 🤷♀️
Trailer and music are makes me chill
I hope the Jackal wins this time.
The remake remake that we did not need.
So... kids from Sidney Poitier and Bruce Willis characters from Jackal taking after them?
This is the third time this film has been made
Well there's another movie DEI destroyed
The original 1973 version with Edward Fox never needed to be remade. Just leave the classics alone already
This is like the THIRD version of this.
Give it a chance (what's all the cynicism for...SHEEESH!)...it looks good. Great actors and look at the awesome song they picked for the trailer. 😊
The only person strong enough.........is a strong willed woman. Brought to you by "THE MESSAGE!"
Some films should just be left alone , and this is one of them
Is this the second remake of the original, or the third?
As actresses go, I just don't find Lashana Lynch particularly interesting. Only thing I ever liked her in was Matilda: The Musical.
Don't waste your time & money on this film.
Watch the original DAY OF THE JACKAL(1973), starring Edward Fox and Michael Lonsdale, directed by Fred Zinnemann. It's perfection.
Forsyth has so many good books to go after, they didnt need to remake this.
Music : Skeller - ID
I definitely watch it.
why remake a perfect movie? the 70s OG is a masterpiece
The theme song is my opener mvmt in marching lol
i will stick with the 1973 version thank you very much.
Love Eddie Redmayne. I'm looking forward to this
JHC, hollywood you just don't get it do you, the original is pure class, story telling is an art not a series of clips made to look good . Depth of character and what makes people tick is a compete anathema to you....
I will stick with the two previous Films thank you
At least they've kept the melon scene.
Oh yes very Peacock *Original* to remake something that has already been made *and* remade before!
Time to watch the Bruce Willis version again
Watch Day of the Jackal. Which is the original to the Bruce Willis version.
Here or even Read the book
Watch the Edward Fox version : "The day of the jackal", set in France in early 1960s with a high value target
Anyone know the name of the instrumental
good movies always have to be remade with a DEI twist nowadays...
Eddie would be good as Logan 5 for a remake of Logan’s Run that would be awesome
What’s the tune?

Blade Runner =
1982, 2022 ........................? "2062" ?
Bruce Willis aged well
I will stick with the first one,,,,,,
I think they've leery done this. It's called "Killing Eve."
Eddie Redmayne is a fantastic actor but he looks as convincing of a killer as Mrs Doubtfire. Maybe thats the point though.
Assume Eddie just looked at the cheque without bothering to look at the title or the script.
Love the actor❤❤❤❤
Might as well Remake the Warriors movie and everything else from 1990 down to 70’s
