Check out the track “Pinwheel” by Volker Bertelmann from The Day of the Jackal soundtrack below:
“An unrivaled and highly elusive lone assassin, the Jackal, (Eddie Redmayne) makes his living carrying out hits for the highest fee,” the official synopsis reads. “But following his latest kill, he meets his match in a tenacious British intelligence officer (Lashana Lynch) who starts to track down the Jackal in a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe, leaving destruction in its wake.”
Ronan Bennett wrote the series and serves as an executive producer alongside Brian Kirk (who also serves as director), Redmayne, Carnival Films’ Gareth Neame and Nigel Marchant, Sky Sutdios’ Sam Hoyle, and Sue Naegle. Lynch serves as a co-executive producer, while Chris Hall serves as a producer and Frederick Forsyth as a consulting producer.
