Catherine Zeta-Jones stars in Basque-shot thriller Kill Jackie

Saturday, 3 October 2026, 06:18 · 1 min read

Catherine Zeta-Jones leads HBO Max's action-comedy Kill Jackie, about an art dealer hiding in Bilbao (the Basque industrial and cultural city in northern Spain, home to the Guggenheim museum) from a group of assassins; about three-quarters of the series was shot in Bizkaia province over 104 days, with about 60% of the crew hired locally. The Welsh actress, also an executive producer, used her natural accent on screen for the first time in her career, and local authorities estimate the production brought roughly 258 million euros to the region. Officials say the project advances Bilbao's ambition to become a film-industry hub, a goal backed by regional public funding.
