Karlis Arnolds Avots joins KILL JACKIE

(Arturs Kondrats)

Karlis Arnolds Avots has joined the thriller series, KILL JACKIE (w/t), starring Oscar-winning actress Catherine Zeta-Jones (Chicago, Wednesday).

From the creatives behind KILLING EVE and GANGS OF LONDON, KILL JACKIE is a thrilling tightrope walk between comedy, drama and downright insanity. Based on the acclaimed novel The Price You Pay by Sunday Times best-selling author Nick Harkaway, writing as Aidan Truhen (Karla’s Choice, Tigerman), adapted by Tom Butterworth (Gangs of London) and Conor Keane, KILL JACKIE is a sly character study that asks what happens when you’re forced to act out your darkest impulses in order to survive. But at its heart, it’s a grounded, universal story about family: the kind we’re born with and the kind we choose. The lead Director is Damon Thomas (Killing Eve) and Dawn Shadforth (I Hate Suzie, Adult Material) directs block two. The eight-part series is co-produced by Fremantle and Steel Springs Pictures.
