The wait has now officially come to an end, as Ritchson revealed from the stage of CCXP in São Paulo, Brazil (pictured), that a new batch of episodes will debut on the streamer on Thursday, February 20.
The eight-episode season will be released weekly, starting with the first three episodes, followed by episodes every Thursday through March 27 in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. Ritchson appeared on the Thunder Stage alongside actress Maria Sten and Lee Childs, the author of the Reacher novels who also serves as executive producer.
The news comes after a stellar run for the second season of Reacher, which became the most-watched series on Prime Video in 2023. Unsurprisingly, Amazon announced earlier this year that the action-packed series had received an early renewal with a fourth season set to begin in 2025.
The new teaser shows Ritchson in classic Reacher form in all his muscular glory. Twist: It seems Reacher has met his too-great match in a man named Paulie, aka Paul Masserella, who is a gatekeeper at a luxury waterfront estate.
In the third season, based on Child's novel Persuader, Reacher is thrust into a criminal enterprise in an attempt to rescue an undercover DEA informant whose time is running out. There he finds himself in a world full of mystery and violence, while he is confronted with unfinished business from his own past.
What is worth mentioning is that Paulie is played by The Dutch Giant, Olivier Richters. He is indeed no small boy and that can certainly provide a spectacle.
