AMC Global Media has acquired the U.S. rights to Catherine Zeta-Jones‘ upcoming revenge thriller series “Kill Jackie.”
Starring and executive produced by Zeta-Jones and co-produced by Steel Springs Pictures and Fremantle, “Kill Jackie” is set to premiere this fall on AMC+ in the U.S.
Based on Nick Harkaway’s bestselling novel “The Price You Pay” (which he wrote under pseudonym Aidan Truhen), the series follows Jackie Price (Zeta-Jones), “who has spent the last 20 years living a quiet, luxurious existence selling fine art while remaining anonymous after escaping a criminal past,” according to its official synopsis. “Her carefully constructed world is shattered when she discovers that The Seven Demons, a squad of ruthless assassins, have been hired to kill her. Jackie will need to unleash her old instincts and execute a dangerous plan to take down the Demons.”
Alongside Zeta-Jones, “Kill Jackie” stars Daniel Ings, Sidse Babett Knudsen, Bill Paterson, Ron Perlman, Óscar Jaenada, Hattie Hook, Darci Shaw, Raff Law, Enzo Cilenti, Christine Adams, Julian Rhind-Tutt, Karlis Arnolds Avots, Set Sjöstrand, Tadashi Ito, Sebastian Armesto, Julian Barratt, Gavin Spokes, Jonathan Cake and Bamshad Abedi-Amin.
