Season 5 was ordered ahead of Season 4’s premiere, giving Amazon Prime Video an early renewal for one of its biggest action franchises.
54.6 million viewers watched Season 3 globally in its first 19 days on Prime Video, making it the service’s most-watched season since “Fallout” Season 1 under Amazon’s metric.
Season 4, based on Lee Child’s 13th Jack Reacher novel “Gone Tomorrow,” follows a subway encounter that pulls Reacher into a deadly conspiracy tied to powerful enemies.
Alan Ritchson returns in the lead, with Chris Marquette, Sydelle Noel, Agnez Mo, Anggun, Kevin Weisman, Marc Blucas, Kevin Corrigan and Kathleen Robertson joining the cast.
