The third season of Reacher, Prime Video's adaptation of the Jack Reacher books by author Lee Child, premieres in just a couple days. They follow Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson), a hulking former U.S. Army military policeman and self-proclaimed hobo who wanders from place to place solving crimes and helping people. The upcoming season will be based on the seventh book in Child's series, Persuader, where Jack Reacher teams up with the DEA to take down Zachary Beck (Anthony Michael Hall), who it's believed is using his oriental rug business to smuggle drugs.
The new season kicks off on Thursday, February 20. As is customary with seasons of TV on Prime Video, the first three episodes will drop all at once, but after that will come out one at a time until the season is over. Here's the complete episode release schedule for Reacher season 3:
- Episode 301: "Persuader" — February 20, 2025
- Episode 302: "Truckin" — February 20, 2025
- Episode 303: "Number 2 with a Bullet" — February 20, 2025
- Episode 304: "Domnique" — February 27, 2025
- Episode 305: "Smackdown" — March 6, 2025
- Episode 306: "Smoke on the Water" — March 13, 2025
- Episode 307: "L.A. Story" — March 20, 2025
- Episode 308: "Unfinished Business" — March 27, 2025
For the first season of Reacher, every episode dropped at once, but once the show blew up, Prime Video realized what they had and started spacing them out for the second. The show has since become one of the most popular original series on the streaming service, and the third season could be the biggest yet.
Is that a pun on how huge Jack Reacher is? It might as well be. Season 3 will up the ante by introducing a new character named Paulie, played by bodybuilder Olivier Richters. At 7'2", Richters dwarfs even Alan Ritchson, who stands at 6'3". Paulie is one of Zachary Beck's bodyguards, so and he Reacher will be at odds. Who wants to see some giants pummel each other?
Reacher has already been renewed for a fourth season beyond this, although we don't have a release date for that one just yet.
