Prime Video, Skydance Television, and Paramount Television Studios have announced the casting of Anthony Michael Hall and Sonya Cassidy as series regulars for the upcoming third season of ‘Reacher’, the action-packed drama series starring Alan Ritchson in the title role of Jack Reacher.
Maria Sten will also return for Season 3 as Frances Neagley, Amazon MGM Studios said in a media statement.
In the third season, which is based on the seventh book in Lee Child’s global best-selling series, ‘Persuader’, Reacher must go undercover to rescue an informant held by a haunting foe from his past.
Anthony Michael Hall (‘Bosch: Legacy’, ‘Halloween Kills’) has been cast as Zachary Beck. A formidable and successful businessman, Beck is a widow and single father of a 20-year-old son, Richard. He is the owner of a rug import company that Reacher and his cohorts suspect is a cover for a more nefarious operation.
Sonya Cassidy (‘The Man Who Fell to Earth’, ‘Lodge 49’) has been cast as Susan Duffy, an intelligent and tough DEA agent from Boston with a sharp and sarcastic sense of humour.
‘Reacher’ Season Three is currently filming in Toronto. The renewal was announced in December 2023, two weeks before season two premiered on Prime Video.
‘Reacher’ Season Two was the #1 title on Prime Video worldwide across both series and movies in 2023 during its premiere weekend (based on viewership). The series’ global audience grew 50 percent between seasons in the first three days after the second season’s debut on December 15, 2023. All episodes of the first two seasons of ‘Reacher’ are now streaming on Prime Video.
Based on the novels by Child, who is an executive producer on the series, ‘Reacher’ stars Alan Ritchson and is produced by Amazon MGM Studios, Skydance Television, and Paramount Television Studios.
The show is written for television by Emmy-nominated writer Nick Santora, who also executive produces and serves as showrunner. In addition to Santora and Child, Ritchson will serve as an executive producer of Season Three, along with Don Granger, Scott Sullivan, Mick Betancourt, David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Matt Thunell for Skydance.
Carolyn Harris and Kenny Madrid are the executives-in-charge of the series for Skydance Television.
