Hired by a powerful member of the Russian mafia to avenge an FBI sting that left his brother dead, a psychopathic hitman known only as The Jackal proves an elusive target for the people charged with the task of bringing him down: a deputy FBI director, a Russian MVK Major, and a jailed IRA terrorist who can recognize him.
The Jackal is a 1997 action thriller starring Bruce Willis as an elite assassin hired by the Russian mafia to carry out a high-profile hit in America. Pursued by an FBI deputy director, a Russian intelligence officer, and a jailed IRA operative, the film delivers intense cat-and-mouse gameplay across a globe-trotting manhunt.
