The next season of Prime Video’s breakout hit, Reacher, based on the Lee Child novels and starring Alan Ritchson adds new names.
Alan Ritchson can be seen this summer adding his muscles to Vin Diesel’s Fast X, but the hulking actor is also back for season 2 of his breakout role in Reacher for Prime Video. According to Deadline, Ritchson is joined this season by Serinda Swan (Coroner), Ferdinand Kingsley (Sandman) and Rory Cochrane (Winning Time).
In addition, this season will also feature Domenick Lombardozzi (Magnum P.I.), along with Luke Bilyk (DeGrassi: The Next Generation), Dean McKenzie (Shooter), Edsson Morales (Black Summer), Andres Collantes (Two Sentence Horror Stories), Shannon Kook-Chun (The 100), Ty Victor Olsson (Supernatural), Josh Blacker (See), and Al Sapienza (Coroner). Maria Stren is also set to return, as previously announced, to play Frances Neagley and Shaun Sipos will play David O’Donnell.
The character descriptions for the new cast reads (via Deadline):
Swan has been cast as Karla Dixon. Along with O’Donnell, Dixon served with Reacher in the Army’s unit of Special Investigators. She’s an extremely intelligent private investigator who has no problem holding her own in a fight against men much larger than she is.
Kingsley will play A.M. He’s what Homeland Security calls a “ghost.” He operates under a number of aliases and can pass for any nationality. Money is his only motivation, and he’ll work for the highest bidder.
Cochrane will portray Shane Langston. He’s a streetwise former NYPD detective with a questionable track record who is now head of security for a private defense contractor.
Lombardozzi is Guy Russo. He’s a tough NYPD detective who’s investigating a case that involves several of Reacher’s former Army cohorts.
Nick Santora, who was recently announced to be showrunning for a new Arnold Schwarzenegger Netflix show, FUBAR, returned to write for the series, which is based on the Lee Child novels. The series follows Jack Reacher, a veteran military investigator, as he re-enters the civilian life. The second season takes its story from the 11th book in Lee Child’s bestselling series, Bad Luck and Trouble. It begins when Reacher discovers the members of his old military unit are turning up dead. And Jack is back in action as he searches for answers with a plan for justice and a side of vengeance.
Filming on Reacher season 2 has wrapped, as announced in a video that was posted on Twitter:
