Alan Ritchson is set to reprise his role as Jack Reacher for the fourth season finale of Prime Video's hit series this week, an episode that will also coincide with the launch of the show's first spin-off. The milestone caps a standout year for the actor, who has combined his television success with two theatrical releases, cementing his status as one of Hollywood's most in-demand action stars.

Reacher has proved a major critical and commercial success for Prime Video, holding an overall 95% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with season four rated "Certified Fresh" at 94%. Ritchson also released the action film Runner, co-starring Owen Wilson, which earned around $6 million in its opening weekend, roughly three times the debut takings of his earlier 2026 film, Motor City, and received an A- CinemaScore alongside an 89% Rotten Tomatoes audience score. Earlier in the year, he also starred in the sci-fi thriller War Machine, which went on to become one of Netflix's most-watched original films.
