Reacher Season 5 Officially Gets a Perfect Alan Ritchson Update: Filming Is Past the Halfway Mark
Filming moves ahead in Toronto
Ritchson shared the production update in a reply to a fan on Threads who asked how long the wait for season 5 might be. He said filming had passed the halfway point, then followed with a joke-filled calculation that offered no clear timetable.
The fifth season is filming in Toronto. Prime Video has not announced when it will premiere, though the article expects it sooner rather than later because a sixth season is confirmed.
A mystery begins in Mother’s Rest
Season 5 is set to adapt Make Me, Lee Child’s 20th Reacher novel. The story opens with Jack Reacher getting off a train in the small town of Mother’s Rest to find out how it got its unusual name.
There, Reacher encounters private investigator Michelle Chang, whose colleague has disappeared while looking into the town. What first appears to be a missing-person case develops into something more serious.
Cast and streaming details
Ritchson returns as Jack Reacher, with Amanda Ip playing Michelle Chang and Jay Baruchel appearing as Chief Buck Bauer. Ciara Bravo is also in the cast as Eunice, while Kevin Durand plays Nokes.
All four seasons are streaming on Prime Video. The service has yet to announce an official release date for season 5.
Key points
- Production is taking place in Toronto, with no premiere date announced.
- The season adapts Lee Child’s Make Me, his 20th Reacher novel.
