With the standalone Jack Ryan movie set to drop this month on Prime Video, action TV fans are getting antsy about the eventual return of Reacher for what'll presumably be a bone-shattering fourth season. We still haven’t actually seen any footage, though star Alan Ritchson has made it clear his nomadic bada-s will be as bloody as ever for his next self-assigned mission.
