The much-anticipated third season of Reacher is set to captivate fans with its intense drama and action-packed storyline. Based on Lee Child’s novel Persuader, the new season will consist of eight episodes, releasing weekly on Amazon Prime Video. The first three episodes are scheduled to premiere on February 20, 2025, followed by weekly releases every Thursday until March 27, 2025.

This season introduces a compelling new foe, Pauli, also known as the Dutch Giant. The trailer teases a layered relationship between Jack and Pauli, suggesting a shift from allies to adversaries.
Reacher’s mission this season revolves around rescuing an undercover DEA agent while grappling with a figure from his past who he thought was long gone. Maria Sten reprises her role as Frances Neagley, who will also headline her own spinoff series within the Jack Reacher universe.
The trailer is accompanied by the iconic Carry on My Wayward Son by Kansas, setting the tone for an adrenaline-fueled narrative. A standout moment is Reacher’s quote, “Exactly how much danger is this job putting me in?” paired with the tagline, “Trouble doesn’t get any bigger.”

Written by Emmy-nominated writer Nick Santora, who also serves as the showrunner, Reacher Season 3 promises to deliver a thrilling continuation of Lee Child’s beloved novels. The second season was Amazon Prime Video’s most-viewed release in 2023, raising expectations for the upcoming episodes.
