Produced by Legendary Pictures and The Stone Quarry and distributed by Universal Pictures, it is the first installment in the Jackdaw franchise. Sasha Calle stars as Nova Morales, a legendary former army ranger with survivor's guilt and who is haunted by her role in Afghanistan, as she goes on a bloody rampage against a corrupt government organization that mysteriously murdered her son, and soon goes up against a hitman (Vincent D'Onofrio), who was hired by them to stop her. The supporting cast includes Henry Cavill, Zachary Levi, Robert Downey Jr., Kelsey Grammer, William Baldwin, Taryn Manning, Ving Rhames, and Randy Quaid. The Jackdaw had its world premiere in London, England on January 23rd, 2026, and opened in theaters on February 1st; the film received positive reviews and was a financial success, grossing $815 million against a budget of $271 million. Critics praised Calle's performance, action, and score, but criticized its "needless predictability", long runtime of 160 minutes, and the overly graphic blood. Audiences were more raving about the film than just positive, citing Calle's ability to drive the plot forward without appearing weak. A sequel is in development.
