Amazon Prime Video announced this week that their new action series, Reacher, would be renewed for a second season just days after the release of its first season on February 4th, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The show is based on Lee Child’s successful series of fiction books called Jack Reacher. Created by Nick Santora (Prison Break), Reacher is produced by Amazon Studios, Skydance Television, and Paramount Television Studios.

“The phenomenal debut of Reacher is a testament to Lee Child’s creation of one of entertainment’s most well-known heroes, Nick Santora’s original approach to the storytelling, Alan’s brilliant embodiment of the character, and the dedication of the talented people who worked tirelessly in front of and behind the camera to make such an undeniably bingeworthy series,” Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon Studios said in a statement via The Hollywood Reporter. “The global impact of Reacher makes it one of Prime Video’s biggest series debuts, and we can’t wait to bring fans a second season of their new favorite show.”

According to THR, Amazon also noted that the action series, which stars Alan Ritchson (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) as Jack Reacher, ranked in their top five most-watched series’ ever, although season one was released all at once instead of being released episode by episode. Season one of Reacher had eight episodes and was based on Child’s first Jack Reacher novel, Killing Floor.

Santora also made a statement via THR on the renewal, saying “The entire Reacher team – cast, production, writers, etc. – is so happy with the wonderful reception the show has received. Amazon, Skydance, and Paramount have been such fantastic partners and everyone is excited to roll up their sleeves and get to work on what will be a great season two.”

Child also sounded pleased to have his story continue with Amazon Studios in his own statement via THR.

“Partnering with Amazon Studios for season one of Reacher was a total delight – they had our backs every step of the way, and it really shows, in every line and every frame,” Child said.  “So, I’m thrilled we’ll be working together again, for season two. This is very exciting news, and I can’t wait to get started. Reacher couldn’t be in better hands.”

In addition to Ritchman, Reacher stars Malcolm Goodwin (American Gangster), Willa Fitzgerald (Little Women), and Hugh Thompson (Sea of Love).

This is not the first time Child’s stories have come to life thanks to Skydance and Paramount. The two studios produced two feature films based on his stories, Jack Reacher and Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, both starring Tom Cruise (Top Gun).
