‘Reacher’ Season 2 Wraps Filming – Here’s What We Know About Jack’s Return
Reacher Season 2 is jumping ahead to one of the best novels in the series that has Jack searching for old friends.
Lee Child’s novels got another shot on the small screen last year with an actor (Alan Ritchson) – who actually looks like the titular character. The first season took on the first novel in the series, Killing Floor. Retired military police investigator Jack Reacher is accused of murder after being identified by multiple witnesses as the likely perpetrator. In order to prove his innocence, he works with the police to locate the person that’s pinned it on him. It turns out to be a full-blown conspiracy.
You can watch the entire first season on Amazon now. It’s a fun show with a good mix of humor and action. Ritchson is a lot of fun in the role and his chemistry with Malcolm Goodwin and Willa Fitzgerald is great. The first season was a hit for Amazon. I binged it over a weekend – thankfully we’re getting more.
What We Know About Reacher Season 2
The show just wrapped up filming its second season. That jives with what Vernon Sanders, Head of Television at Amazon Studios, told Collider in December of 2022 about when we’ll be able to jump back into the show.
“It’s going really well. Alan is back, and he is so fantastic in the role. I’m so proud of the producers [for] finding that fit for Reacher. The Reacher fans of the book, their reaction to the show has just been a dream. Season 2 is awesome. And as great as season one was, I think season two delivers beyond that, and I do think there’s a good chance that that show will be back next year.”
The second season is based on Bad Luck and Trouble, which jumps to the eleventh book in the series. The first season had the former MP dealing with corrupt small-town cops to greedy businessmen. This story is more personal – Reacher will be investigating the disappearances and deaths of members of his military unit. It’s filled with twists and turns, and mysteries that Reacher will have to tackle with his unique set of talents.

This season brings back Luke Bilyk, Dean McKenzie, Edsson Morales, Andres Collantes, Shannon Kook-Chun, Ty Victor Olsson, and Josh Blacker. The new story adds new characters and guest stars – Serinda Swan, Ferdinand Kingsley, Shaun Sipos, Rory Cochrane and guest star Domenick Lombardozzi have been announced so far.
No solid release date, but I would guess winter this year.
