Reacher Season 2 Sets Amazon Premiere Date, Drops First Trailer

“Reacher” Season 2 has an official premiere date at Amazon Prime Video, with the streamer also dropping the first trailer for the new season of the popular series.

The second season of “Reacher” will debut with the first three of its eight episodes on Dec. 15. New episodes will then drop weekly every Friday through Jan. 19, 2024. The full trailer can be seen below.

Season 2 of the series is based on “Bad Luck and Trouble,” the 11th book in Lee Child’s Jack Reacher novel series.

The official description for Season 2 states: “‘Reacher’ Season Two begins when veteran military police investigator Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) receives a coded message that the members of his former U.S. Army unit, the 110th MP Special Investigations, are being mysteriously and brutally murdered one by one. Pulled from his drifter lifestyle, Reacher reunites with three of his former teammates turned chosen family to investigate, including Frances Neagley (Maria Sten); Karla Dixon (Serinda Swan), a forensic accountant for whom Reacher has long had a soft spot; and fast-talking, switchblade-wielding family man David O’Donnell (Shaun Sipos). Together, they begin to connect the dots in a mystery where the stakes get higher at every turn, and that brings about questions of who has betrayed them—and who will die next. Using his inimitable blend of smarts and size, Reacher will stop at nothing to uncover the truth and protect the members of his unit. If there’s one thing Reacher and his team know for certain, it’s that you do not mess with the Special Investigators. This season, get ready for Reacher and the 110th to hit back hard.”
