<p id=”par-5_40″>In episode 1, Reacher is in Maine, where he witnesses the attempted kidnapping of college student Richard Beck. He intervenes, which leads to him accepting a job offer from Richard’s father, plunging him into a world full of dangerous criminals. </p>

<p id=”par-7_55″>The <em>Reacher </em>series is based on Lee Child’s best-selling series of novels about a former military police officer turned vigilante. Season 1 premiered in 2022 and was based on Child’s first Reacher novel, <em>Killing Floor. </em>Season 2 premiered in late 2023 and was based on the 11th book in the series, <em>Bad Luck and Trouble. </em></p>
<p id=”par-8_14″><em>Reacher </em>Season 3 is based on <em>Persuader. </em>It’s the seventh book in the series. </p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-who-is-in-the-reacher-season-3-cast”>Who is in the ‘Reacher’ Season 3 cast? </h2>
<p id=”par-9_22″>Of course, Alan Ritchson is back at Jack Reacher in the new season. Maria Sten also reprises her role as Frances Neagley. </p>
<p id=”par-10_42″>In addition to Richters, new season 3 cast members include Anthony Michael Hall as Zachary Beck, Sonya Cassidy as Susan Duffy, Brian Tee as Quinn, Johnny Berchtold as Richard Beck, Robert Montesinos as Guillermo Villanueva, and Daniel David Stewart as Steven Elliot.</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-will-there-be-a-reacher-season-4″>Will there be a ‘Reacher’ Season 4? </h2>
<p id=”par-11_40″>Yes! After <em>Reacher </em>Season 2 hit viewing records in 2023, Prime Video gave the show an early season 4 renewal. The fourth season will begin shooting sometime in 2025. A <em>Reacher </em>spinoff focused on Neagley is also in the works. </p>
<p id=”par-12_36″>There’s no word yet on which book will be adapted for season 4. Child has written (or co-written) 29 Jack Reacher books, plus a collection of stories, so there is plenty of material to choose from. </p>
