Fans praise Catherine Zeta-Jones for using her Welsh accent in new series The upcoming series Kill Jackie is adapted from Nick Harkaway’s novel The Price You Pay, which was released under his pseudonym Aidan Truhen. Production took place in Bilbao, Lisbon and London. Catherine Zeta-Jones, recognized for her portrayal of Morticia Addams in Netflix’s Wednesday and her Oscar‑winning supporting role in Chicago, will take on her first major part that employs her Welsh accent. She has previously discussed her deep ties to Wales, noting in her heart she “never truly left”. A viewer reacted to the trailer on Instagram, commenting “her Welsh is retired and I emotion it, can't wait”. Zeta-Jones said she had been anticipating the chance to explore a female‑driven narrative that “encompasses empowerment, individuality and redemption”. Damon Thomas, known for his work on Killing Eve, also appears in the series, while Tom Butterworth of Gangs of London serves as writer and showrunner. Kill Jackie is set to debut on 2 October via Amazon Prime.
