Matt Bomer (Fellow Travelers, Outcome) has officially joined the second season of the Peacock and Sky spy thriller The Day of the Jackal.
Bomer is set for a major recurring role where he will star opposite lead Eddie Redmayne.
Based on the acclaimed novel by Frederick Forsyth, The Day of the Jackal is a sleek, modern reimagining of the classic cat-and-mouse thriller.
Redmayne stars as the “Jackal,” an elite, peerless assassin who commands millions for high-profile hits while maintaining a double life with a family in Spain.
While specific character details are being kept under wraps, Bomer’s presence suggests a sophisticated new foil for Redmayne’s elusive assassin.
