‘Kill Jackie’ Release Date, Time, Trailer and Where to Watch Catherine Zeta-Jones’ Deadly Game of Cat and Mouse
Catherine Zeta-Jones is back in the spotlight with a revenge thriller that sounds like a stylish mix of assassin chaos and prestige TV. Prime Video, Fremantle and Steel Springs Pictures have confirmed the launch date and released new teaser artwork for the series. If you have been waiting to see her lead a show again, the wait is nearly over.
The ‘Kill Jackie‘ release date lands on Friday, and the way you watch it depends entirely on where you live. Fans love Zeta-Jones in Netflix’s ‘Wednesday,’ but now she takes the lead on screens around the world once more. Here is everything you need to know before the first episode arrives.
‘Kill Jackie’ Release Date and Premiere Time
‘Kill Jackie’ premieres on Friday, Oct. 2, 2026, as an eight episode series. That date applies to both Prime Video and AMC+, though the release style differs sharply between the two platforms. Mark your calendar now, because spoilers will start circulating fast.
None of the announcements I found list an exact clock time for the premiere. Streaming services often roll out new episodes at a set hour on release day, so keep an eye on your own app for the drop. Rather than guess, it is best to check your platform on Friday morning.
For viewers on a weekly schedule, the full run is already mapped out. Episode one, titled ‘Burning Down the House,’ airs Oct 2, followed by ‘Invaders Must Die’ on Oct 9, ‘She’s Gone’ on Oct 16, ‘Cocaine Blues’ on Oct 23 and ‘Here She Comes’ on Oct 30. That gives the show a solid month of water cooler buzz.
Where to Watch ‘Kill Jackie’ in the US and Abroad
American viewers will need AMC+. The series premieres exclusively on AMC+ on Friday, October 2, with new episodes airing weekly. That means a slow burn for US fans, who will be tracking the story one chapter at a time.
International audiences get a very different experience. The series debuts on Prime Video on Oct. 2 in the U.K., Ireland, the Netherlands, Turkey, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg and Canada, with all eight episodes released on the same day. If you are in one of those territories, a full weekend binge is on the table.
The split release is a notable choice for AMC+. The weekly format matches what ‘The Terror: Devil In Silver’ recently received, and it proved successful enough to quickly land that series a fourth season renewal. Whether lightning strikes twice for ‘Kill Jackie’ remains to be seen.
‘Kill Jackie’ Preview and What the Story Is About
The premise is pure pulp fun with a polished edge. Jackie Price has been living a luxurious existence for twenty years, travelling the world, selling fine art and trying to stay anonymous after escaping a dangerous past as an international drug smuggler. Naturally, a quiet life does not last.
Life takes a lethal turn when she discovers that The Seven Demons, a squad of the world’s most terrifying hitmen, have been hired to kill her. Instead of running, Jackie flips the script. She plans to take down The Demons one by one before they can finish the job.
Of course, the hunt is not just about survival. According to the official synopsis, she soon realizes her own demons are much more terrifying than the ruthless killers on her trail, and her buried secrets lead her closer to home, with surprising consequences. That promise of personal fallout gives the action a juicy emotional hook.
The source material helps too. The show is based on the acclaimed novel ‘The Price You Pay’ by Sunday Times best selling author Nick Harkaway, writing as Aidan Truhen. Fans of the book will be curious to see how faithfully the series handles its twisty plot.
‘Kill Jackie’ Cast and Creative Team
Zeta-Jones leads a stacked ensemble. Daniel Ings, Sidse Babett Knudsen, Óscar Jaenada, Hattie Hook, Darci Shaw, Raff Law, Julian Barratt, Jonathan Cake, Bill Paterson and Ron Perlman are among those who also appear in the series. That is a deep bench for a revenge thriller.
Behind the camera, the pedigree is just as eye catching. The series is co produced by Fremantle and Steel Springs Pictures and brings together creative talent behind acclaimed series including ‘Killing Eve’ and ‘Gangs of London.’ Those credits suggest a mix of sharp humor and brutal set pieces.
Tom Butterworth serves as writer and showrunner, while Damon Thomas, who directed episodes of ‘Killing Eve,’ is the lead director. One outlet even described the project as a take that feels like ‘John Wick’ for television. With that tone in mind, which of The Seven Demons are you most hoping Jackie takes down first, and do you think her buried secrets will hit harder than any assassin?
