The publication also added: “Amazon further says Reacher season 3 is Prime Video‘s biggest premiere since Fallout brought in 65 million viewers over its first 16 days in April 2024. Only that show and season 1 of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power had more viewers over a similar time frame.”
Reacher’s reputation continues to be as big as he is
Alan Ritchson once again brings to life author Lee Child’s Jack Reacher character in Reacher season 3, which is based on Child’s seventh novel, Persuader. The popular tough guy returned for another round of action-packed adventures as the third installment takes the man-mountain hero out of his comfort zone when he goes undercover in a vast criminal empire to rescue an informant being held captive by an enemy from his past.
In Reacher season 3, the titular hero faces off against a seven-foot monster of a man called Paulie (Olivier Richters), which turned out to be an international search in finding an actor that made Ritchson look small, according to Child.
The Reacher supremacy is set to live on as the show scored an early season 4 renewal before the third series even aired on one of the best streaming services. Although there’s already one spin-off in the works called The Untitled Neagley Project, there could be even more Reacher projects on the cards as Child discussed future seasons of Reacher in an exclusive chat with TechRadar.
