The Assassin: BBC India Premiere August 1, 2025
The Assassin is a six-part action thriller starring Keeley Hawes as a retired contract killer and Freddie Highmore as her estranged son, whose unexpected reunion in Greece draws them into a dangerous conspiracy that threatens both their lives. The series combines high-octane action, international settings, and dark British humour, with Hawes noting the stunt work as some of her most challenging. As they flee across Europe, the show delves into their evolving mother-son relationship and secrets from the past, including questions about Edward's paternity. The production, led by creators Harry and Jack Williams of Two Brothers Pictures, overcame challenges filming in intense Greek heat to authentically depict various global locales. The chemistry between the leads and a strong supporting cast, including Gina Gershon and Jack Davenport, are highlighted as strengths. The Assassin premieres on BBC Player India on August 1, 2025, accessible via Prime Video and Tata Play Binge.
