If you’re looking for an exciting mystery series with a seriously muscly star, then you won’t want to miss Amazon Prime’s Reacher. Alan Ritchson (Fast X) plays Jack Reacher, a former U.S. Army Military Police Major whose investigative skills are rivaled only by his ability to kick some ass. The series follows Reacher as he travels throughout the United States, solving crimes and exacting vengeance.
The series is based on the popular Jack Reacher novels by Lee Child. Season one, which premiered in 2022, was based on Child’s 1997 debut novel Killing Floor. Season two, which premiered in December 2023, is based on the 2007 novel Bad Luck and Trouble.
