He said: 'I came back Christmas '69, thoroughly skint

I don’t have a likelihood of a job, don’t have a flat, don’t have a car and don’t have any savings. Then I had this crazy, crazy idea to write a novel. 'Everybody said you must be joking or mad because the chances of even getting it published are hundreds to one, even thousands.' Within weeks of publication, the film rights were snapped up. Some of Hollywood’s biggest stars battled to play the Jackal in the 1973 film but the role went to the then unknown Edward Fox because director Fred Zinnemann thought he could pass invisibly in a crowd.

Lynch is completely miscast

(Air Mail). Referenced in The Graham Norton Show: Denzel Washington/Paul Mescal/Saoirse Ronan/Eddie Redmayne/Blossoms (2024). Her acting is poor. Why she was cast in this role when there are plenty of actresses to be better at it.

It baffles me

Her character is not interesting just another role of an obsessive agent. Eddie Redmayne can do anything, his range as an actor is impressive from theater drama, musicals, films. He never disappoints. In this role, he is solid in anything he performs.

Not for the MÍ 6 agent

The plot is interesting and catching…..funny how we cheer for the Jackal…. The series location is impressive and the plot is a high octane thrill. It is not comparable to the original, this is a worthy adaptation to our current times.
