In the first episode, the duo find themselves on the run as Julie's past catches up with her. But how does it all play out in the show's finale, what is revealed and where do we leave Julie, Edward and the rest of the central characters?
Read on for everything you need to know about the ending of The Assassin.
The Assassin ending explained: Who was Edward's father?
Once Edward found out Jean-Luc was his father, he assumed this meant that Marie was his mother, but she explained this wasn't the case. Instead, Jean-Luc had been the one who wanted children, so he had used a surrogate. Marie had never considered herself his mother.
Once the company took off, Jean-Luc tried to extort more money from them than he was owed, so Aaron and Leila hired an assassin to kill him.
After the assassination was completed, Leila hadn't been able to live with herself, and thus ended her own life. The assassination had been known under the code name Chantaines, which was also the name of their dog.
Who was after Julie?
29 years prior, Julie was hired by Aaron and Leila to kill Jean-Luc. She had succeeded in this task, but was interrupted by Marie, so she shot her too. She assumed she was dead, but really Marie was left in a coma for several years.
In the final episode, Marie had held Edward captive, until Julie came to rescue him. She revealed all to him in an emotional scene, but soon after he fell ill.
Thankfully, Kayla was nearby and had access to her father's helicopter. She called it in, and they managed to get Edward to a hospital in time to save him.
What happened to Aaron?
However, it was heavily implied that Ezra had somehow got the drugs into his system, and that following the argument he had murdered his own father.
Ezra was left as acting head of his father's company.
Where did we leave Julie, Edward and Kayla?
We also found out that Edward and Kayla's engagement was back on, and he and Julie were on good terms. Julie was also seen to be texting Luka, with the two now in a relationship.
