What is the plot for Kill Jackie?
Kill Jackie follows Jackie Price (Catherine Zeta-Jones), a wealthy, intelligent and criminally inclined woman. For 20 years, Jackie has lived a lavish life travelling the world and using tax loopholes to sell fine art.
“Above all, trying to stay anonymous after escaping a dangerous past as an international drug smuggler,” the plot description read.
While her life is luxurious, it’s all quiet and boring until Jackie discovers a kill order on her head.
“The Seven Demons, a squad of the world’s most terrifying hitmen, have been hired to kill her,” the description continued.
“Assuming someone from her past is behind it, Jackie unleashes her old instincts and embarks on a wild, dangerous game plan: to take down The Demons one by one before they kill her.
“However, she soon realizes her own demons are much more terrifying than the ruthless killers on her trail… and her buried secrets ultimately lead her much closer to home, with surprising consequences.”
