So, you've heard about 'The Assassin' and are wondering where you can catch this new thriller? It sounds like quite the ride, doesn't it? We've got a retired assassin, a surprise visit from her estranged son, and a whole lot of danger unfolding on a remote Greek island. It's the kind of story that pulls you in right from the synopsis.
For those in Australia, the good news is that 'The Assassin' is currently streaming on Stan. If you're hoping for a freebie, it doesn't look like that's an option right now, but you can always set up notifications for when that might change.
Now, if you're elsewhere, particularly in the US, things get a little more specific. The series premiered in the UK on Prime Video back in July 2025, but for US viewers, AMC+ is the place to be. The US premiere date was November 20, 2025. So, depending on where you are and what subscriptions you have, your viewing options will vary.
It's a drama and a thriller, created by the Williams brothers, and stars Keeley Hawes as the titular assassin, Julie, and Freddie Highmore as her son, Edward. The first season has six episodes, and it seems like they've already got a second season in the works for 2026, though details are still a bit TBD on that front.
Essentially, if you're looking to dive into Julie's dangerous past catching up with her and her forced partnership with Edward, you'll need to check Stan if you're in Australia, or AMC+ if you're in the US. Happy watching!
