Prime Video Adds to The Terminal List Universe

Prime Video has ordered a second season of the Chris Pratt-led conspiracy thriller The Terminal List, along with an untitled prequel series focusing on the character Ben Edwards, played by Taylor Kitsch.

Season two is based on Jack Carr’s New York Times best-selling novel True Believer. The prequel series is to be co-created by Carr and season one creator/showrunner David DiGilio.

Kitsch (Painkiller, American Primeval, Waco, True Detective) stars as Ben Edwards and will be joined by additional iconic Carr characters, including James Reece (Pratt), Raife Hastings, Mohammed Farooq and Ernest “Boozer” Vickers (Jared Shaw).

An elevated espionage thriller, the series will take viewers on Edwards’ journey from Navy SEAL to CIA paramilitary operator, exploring the darker side of warfare and the human cost that comes with it.

Pratt said: “I’m excited to announce that the second season of The Terminal List is on its way, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to reprise my role as James Reece. This season promises to be even more intense and action-packed than the first, and I can’t wait for everyone to see it. And for those who are fans of Taylor Kitsch’s Ben Edwards, I’m happy to say that we’re also working on a spinoff series that will delve deeper into his story and follow his journey from a Navy SEAL to a CIA operative. And to make it even more exciting, I will also be appearing in this prequel series! I promise you it will be just as thrilling and engaging as The Terminal List. Stay tuned for more updates, and we can’t wait for you all to join us on this journey.”

Kitsch added: “Thank you to all the fans for believing in this show. We wouldn’t be here without your support. I’m excited to continue this wild ride that is Ben Edwards and bring to life Jack Carr’s amazing stories.”

Carr commented: “Fans of The Terminal List will be thrilled to see James Reece’s journey continue in an action-packed story of violent redemption in True Believer. And we’re so excited to build this Terminal List prequel and explore Ben Edwards, brought to life so powerfully by Taylor Kitsch. Get ready for a journey from the SEAL teams to the CIA’s Ground Branch as we watch a fan-favorite character fighting for his soul.”

“The phenomenal summer debut of The Terminal List is a testament to the creativity of Jack Carr, David DiGilio and Chris Pratt, along with the cast and teams who delivered such an original and compelling series,” said Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon and MGM Studios. “With the second season of The Terminal List and Prime Video’s new prequel series starring the amazing Taylor Kitsch, we are expanding on the storytelling and characters beloved by so many all over the world.”

The Terminal List is a co-production from Amazon Studios and Civic Center Media in association with MRC Television.

MRC Television President Elise Henderson added, “The first season of The Terminal List resonated so strongly with fans, and we’re incredibly proud of the work accomplished by our tremendous cast and crew. We couldn’t be more excited to continue this journey and expand this world with Chris, Taylor, Dave and our fantastic partners at Prime Video.”
