Amazon Renews Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Ahead of Global Premiere

Amazon has already greenlit season two of Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, ahead of its global series debut on Prime Video on August 31.

From Paramount Television and Skydance Television, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan is a reinvention with a modern sensibility of the Tom Clancy hero played by John Krasinski (A Quiet Place, 13 Hours). Season two will have eight episodes. 

The creators of the series, executive producers Carlton Cuse (Lost, Bates Motel) and Graham Roland (Fringe, Prison Break), will continue to serve as co-showrunners. Additionally, Krasinski, who also serves as an executive producer, will be reunited with Wendell Pierce (The Wire), who will reprise his role as James Greer in the second season. 

“With so much early anticipation for Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan from our customers and personally having the pleasure to preview the exhilarating, action-packed first season, we are excited to greenlight a second season of the series months ahead of its debut,” said Jennifer Salke, the head of Amazon Studios. “The new season will take our unexpected hero to a new, exciting and dangerous world.”

“We’re thrilled that the first season has generated so much enthusiasm,” added Cuse. “We couldn’t be happier to be working with Amazon and to be filming very near the Amazon to tell the next great Jack Ryan adventure.” 

“From day one we only had one actor on our casting board for this series—John Krasinski,” said Amy Powell, the president of Paramount Television. “We are so excited that he is our Jack Ryan and we get to make another season with this incredibly talented team. We have been blown away by what our whole team has delivered for season one and we can’t wait for everyone to see it this summer.”
