A synopsis for the upcoming series reads: “Zeta-Jones plays Jackie Price who has been living a wealthy, luxurious existence for the last twenty years…
“Travelling the , selling fine art using sophisticated tax loopholes and, above all, trying to stay anonymous after escaping a dangerous past as an international cocaine dealer.
“But just as life starts to feel a little boring, it takes a sudden lethal turn when she discovers The Seven Demons, a squad of the world’s most terrifying hitmen, have been hired to kill her.”
Zeta-Jones recently dazzled Netflix subscribers with her turn as Morticia Addams opposite Jenna Ortega in Wednesday.
She’ll be reprising the role in the Tim Burton-directed series’ second season, coming later this year.
In Kill Jackie, Ings will portray Sam, described as Jackie’s “buttoned-up lawyer” as well as her “long-held crush”.
The eight-part series is currently in production with no release date confirmed just yet. Kill Jackie is also currently just a working title.
Outside of his Netflix stint, Ings is familiar to UK audiences for his roles in popular comedies Lovesick and Sex Education as well as hit dramas The Crown and I Hate Suzie.
He’ll also be returning as Freddy in The Gentlemen’s second season, which was confirmed last August, though a release date has not been announced.
Ings is re-teaming with I Hate Suzie director Dawn Shadforth, who is helming the series with co-director Damon Thomas of fame.
Britannia creator Tom Butterworth is the showrunner, while the series was created and co-written by Conor Keane.
Wednesday and The Gentlemen are available to stream on Netflix.
