Where Was ‘The Chacal’ Filmed
From Cádiz to Croatia: “The Day of the Jackal” Series Takes Creative Liberties with Location
Eddie Redmayne and Úrsula Corberó star in the latest adaptation of Frederick Forsyth’s thriller novel, “The Day of the Jackal,” now streaming on SkyShowtime. While the series prominently features Cádiz, Spain, as the home of Corberó’s character, Nuria, filming never actually took place in the Andalusian city.
Instead, the production team opted for the picturesque Croatian town of Rabac, nestled along the Adriatic coast. Rabac, known for its annual electronic music festival, provided the backdrop for nuria’s luxurious villa, with the series’ creators aiming to capture a “rustic Spanish feel” in the location.
“The Day of the Jackal” takes viewers on a globe-trotting journey, with filming also taking place in London, Budapest, and Vienna.
While the series’ creators chose to recreate Cádiz in Croatia, the decision has sparked curiosity among viewers. Will future seasons of “The Day of the Jackal” venture to Spain to capture the authentic atmosphere of the city that plays such a pivotal role in the story? Only time will tell.
