Kill Jackie trailer sets AMC+ release date for Catherine Zeta-Jones action series
Catherine Zeta-Jones is set to headline Kill Jackie, an upcoming AMC+ action thriller that will premiere with all eight episodes on October 2, 2026. The series will also be available on Prime Video in the UK and Ireland on the same date. The first trailer gives viewers a look at Zeta-Jones as Jackie Price, a former criminal forced to return to a life she spent years trying to escape.
Jackie has spent the past 20 years keeping a low profile after leaving her former life as an international drug smuggler. She has since built a comfortable life around international travel and the fine-art business, deliberately keeping her past hidden. However, that changes when she learns that seven elite assassins known as the Seven Demons have been sent after her.
With her life suddenly at risk, Jackie decides that running is no longer an option. Believing that someone from her past arranged the hit, she sets out to eliminate the assassins before they reach her. Alongside Zeta-Jones, the cast features Daniel Ings, Darci Shaw, Raff Law, Sidse Babett Knudsen, and Óscar Jaenada, among others.
Kill Jackie is adapted from The Price You Pay, the acclaimed novel by Sunday Times bestselling author Nick Harkaway. The series was created by Conor Keane, Tom Butterworth, Peter Lawson, and Damon Thomas. Butterworth serves as writer and showrunner, while Thomas is the lead director.
