“It’s going to be great,” showrunner Nick Santora told TVLine ahead of the original’s release. “Throughout the three seasons, this might be my favorite story.”
This storyline returns the series to its “solo” Reacher format, but Season 2 reunites the hulking nomad with his team. As Santora told the Messenger, “We felt there needed to be more Reacher standalone books in the third season.”
Additionally, “we get to enjoy Reacher in a new world,” series lead Alan Ritchson told ComicBook.com. “It may have nothing to do with his family or his past, he’s just living that adventure.”
Season 3 will also be “more brutal than ever,” Ritchson teased in the Instagram photo above.
Who’s coming back for season 3?
One would safely “assume” that Alan Ritchson is returning to the title role, seeing as he appears in the video above announcing the Season 3 renewal while on set in Toronto in December . (it is joke,son. )
Prime Video also announced that Maria Sten will be reprising her role as Frances Negley.
However, similar to Season 2, and in keeping with the maverick that author Lee Child has created, few other characters from past seasons are likely to return. (Of course, there’s always the chance for a special cameo, like in Season 2, Episode 4.)
“The rule is that Reacher doesn’t run with the crew,” showrunner Nick Santora reminds us. Other members of the 110th Special Investigations Unit, who were featured heavily in season 2, “are his family and military colleagues, but he wanders the world alone. We know that we can’t bring along a ragtag team of people to do that. That’s not the book.”
Who are the new actors in season 3?
Season 3 has been filming since at least early December 2023. who Standing in front of the camera alongside Alan Ritchson.
“I can’t give too much away,” showrunner Nick Santora told TVLine in January, but added that season 1 (Malcolm Goodwin, Willa Fitzgerald, Maria Sten) and season 2 (Serinda Swan) “Some of the actors I’ve worked with in the past are very talented actors for this film,” Lombardozzi said. [third] The same goes for the seasons. I like going back to the same well. Because if you know someone is going to hit a home run, you give them the bat. ”
On February 8th, we got our first two pieces of the Season 3 cast: Anthony Michael Hall (most recently Bosch: Legacy) plays Zachary Beck, a formidable successful businessman and owner of a carpet importing company that Reacher suspects is a front for a more sinister operation, while Sonya Cassidy (Lodge 49) was cast in the role of Susan Duffy, a highly intelligent and tough Drug Enforcement Administration agent from Boston with a sharp and sarcastic sense of humor.
Additional cast members announced on March 6 include Brian Tee (chicago med) Quinn was an imposing and intimidating lieutenant colonel who was investigating Reacher when he sold military secrets to an enemy nation 10 years earlier. Johnny Berchtold (small beautiful things) Richard Beck is a sensitive and artistic college student who lost his mother at an early age and is the only son of businessman Zachary Beck (Hall). Roberto Montesinos (9-1-1: Lonely stationr) Role of Guillermo Villanueva. He is a DEA agent on the verge of retirement and plays the father of Agent Susan Duffy (Cassidy). and Daniel David Stewart (for all humanity) Stephen Elliott is a talented new DEA agent.
How many episodes will be in season 3?
Season 1 of Prime Video’s hit series spanned eight episodes, all of which were released on February 4, 2022.
The second season, which aired from December 15, 2023 to January 19, 2024, also spanned eight episodes.
Neither Prime Video nor showrunner Nick Santora has revealed the number of episodes for Season 3, but we’re willing to take a chance. exclusively I predict “8”.
When is the release date of season 3?
Hmm. Math. Where is Dixon when you need him…?
Reacher season 1 was filmed for three months and released seven months later.
Reacher season 2 was filmed for about five months and released ten months later.
We’ll split the difference, pencil in four months of filming, and once again predict a December premiere date to coincide with season two. But that’s 100% unabashed spitting, guys. So far, Prime Video (like Reacher, who often appears in the novel) has said nothing.
