Reacher Season 3: Expected Release, Plot, Cast & News

Jack Reacher is returning to Amazon with Season 3! Prime Video already confirmed Reacher's upcoming third season, even before the second one finished, and for good reason. Here's everything we know so far, including our guess at the release date, the plot, cast and any other news you could possibly need to know.

Jack Reacher – admired by men for his rugged independence and revered by women for his charm and, frankly, sinful good looks. This version of Reacher hits the sweet spot that Tom Cruise didn't quite manage with his portrayal (not his fault, though!) and the mysterious ex-major is now one of Amazon's most iconic characters. Good thing the show has been renewed for season 3, then!

As the show is based on Lee Child's book series , Amazon's got source material for decades to come – it is rather long, so they won't run out of adventures to adapt to our screens. Season 1 was Killing Floor , season 2 tackled Back Luck and Trouble (alternative title: Story of my Life...) and we already know which book we'll get in season 3 – but one thing at a time.

When Is Reacher Season 3 Going To Release?

Reacher's third season has already started production – great news! Still, fans will have to be patient as a show like Reacher takes its time to film, and don't even get me started on the post-production stuff.

There is no official release date yet, and getting confirmation on when Reacher Season 3 most likely going to take some time. Still, based on the production time of past seasons, we're expecting a release in early 2025.

Reacher's Returning Cast

What would Reacher be without the man himself, Alan Ritchson? Nothing, I say! Obviously, he'll return to pick up the lead role again, just to make me happy – so kind of him. Also at his side once again will be Maria Sten as Frances Neagley.

Additions to the cast are Sonya Cassidy and Anthony Michael Hall, as announced by Amazon. Cassidy will play Susan Duffy, a witty, clever and tough DEA agent – could that be someone Reacher shows some more interest in than a strict business acquaintance...?

Hall has been cast as Zachary Beck, a widowed and pretty successful businessman and single father to his adult son Richard. Jack Reacher needs to take a closer look at him because his rug import company seems to cover up some shady business.

The Source Material & Plot For Reacher's Third Season

The upcoming third season of Reacher is based on the seventh book of Lee Child's series: Persuader . Without giving too much away, here's what's to come.

Following an unexpected run-in with a former foe, Reacher is once again fuelled by revenge and sets out to settle a decade-old vendetta. In dire straits, Reacher infiltrates a criminal organization and has to use his cunning and experience once again to stay undercover to get his vengeance.

If you can't wait for Prime Video to catch up, you might want to get the book. If you're more patient than that, then rest assured we'll update you as soon as there's further news to Reacher Season 3!
