Alan Ritchson Says REACHER Season 4 'May Be the Best Yet' as Training Kicks Into Gear — GeekTyrant
According to Alan Ritchson, Reacher Season 4 might just be the biggest and baddest season of the series yet. The Reacher star gave fans a behind-the-scenes peek on Instagram, teasing his return as the no-nonsense nomad with a photo dump that included stunt training and wardrobe fittings. He captioned it with a confident tease: 'Season 4 is right around the corner, and dare I say… May be the best season yet?' While Amazon hasn't confirmed a start date for filming, it's pretty clear from the post that things are ramping up behind the scenes. Ritchson's body is already in go-mode, too: 'Back into stunts with Buster, Eric, and team. Season 4 is going to be the most intensely physical season yet. My body is ready.' That's the most substantial update fans have gotten about Season 4 since the series was renewed. For those keeping track, Season 3 ended with Reacher dismantling a drug operation in Maine before quietly slipping away once more, duffel-less as always. We still have yet to learn which Jack Reacher novel Season 4 will adapt. Season 1 pulled from The Killing Floor , Season 2 tackled Bad Luck and Trouble , and Season 3 dove into Persuader . The new photos include a cozy shot of Ritchson with author Lee Child, suggesting the creator is still closely involved, and most likely helping shape where Reacher heads next. Ritchson joked about Child: 'I wish everyone had the good fortune of being best friends for life with this man like we are,' 'Because we are best friends and he is adopting me officially soon, I think.' Before Reacher returns, though, fans will meet another familiar face in a spin-off: Neagley . The show centers on Reacher's trusted ally Francis Neagley (played by Maria Sten) as she dives into a revenge-fueled investigation after a friend's suspicious death. The spin-off is expected to arrive in 2026, and while it's not clear if Ritchson's Reacher will make an appearance, he has been spotted on set. 'Stopped by the Neagley set to see my dear friend Maria Sten, who is absolutely crushing it,' he shared. No release date yet for Reacher Season 4, but based on what we've seen so far, fans should be ready for a heavier dose of fists, grit, and Reacher justice.

The Wheel of Time Cancelled After 3 Seasons
The Wheel of Time has stopped spinning. Prime Video has cancelled the fantasy drama after three seasons, sources confirm for TVLine. More from TVLine Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Renewed for Season 3, Multi-Year Time Jump Ahead Alan Ritchson Teases 'Intensely Physical' Reacher Season 4 After Filming Cameo in Neagley Spinoff Cancellation Poll Results: The Recently Axed Show You'll Miss the Most Is... The bad news comes five weeks after the Season 3 finale premiered on Prime. As noted by our sister site Deadline, viewership of the lavish series slipped with Season 3, to a point that it could not justify a Season 4 commitment — despite Prime Video working with Sony TV to make the numbers work. Based on the best-selling Robert Jordan fantasy novels, The Wheel of Time tells the story of Rand a'Thor (played by Josha Stradowski), a humble farm boy who learns he is The Dragon Reborn — a dangerous figure from history destined to save the world … or break it. At the end of Season 2, Rand after defeating Ishamael reunited with his friends at Falme and was declared the Dragon Reborn. But in Season 3 (which was primarily based on the fourth book of Jordan's series, The Shadow Rising), the threats against the Light multiplied. The White Tower stood divided, the Black Ajah were running free, old enemies returned to the Two Rivers, and the remaining Forsaken kept in hot pursuit of the Dragon… including Lanfear (Natasha O'Keeffe), whose relationship with Rand will marked a crucial choice between Light and Dark for them both. In addition to Stradowski, O'Keefe, Rosamund Pike (as Moiraine Damodred) and Madeleine Madden (Egwene al'Vere), The Wheel of Time starred Daniel Henney as al'Lan Mandragoran, Zoë Robins as Nynaeve al'Meara, Marcus Rutherford as Perrin Aybara, Dónal Finn as Mat Cauthon, Ceara Coveney as Elayne Trakand, Kate Fleetwood as Liandrin Guirale, Ayoola Smart as Aviendha, Sophie Okonedo as Siuan, and Kae Alexander as Min Farshaw. Prime Video's Wheel of Time series was adapted for television by showrunner Rafe Judkins (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), who served as executive producer with Pike, Rick Selvage, Larry Mondragon, Ted Field, Mike Weber, Marigo Kehoe, Ciaran Donnelly, Justine Juel Gillmer and Dave Hill.

‘Reacher' Star Alan Ritchson Films ‘Neagley' Cameo And Teases Season 4
Alan Ritchson has been spotted filming a cameo for the Reacher spinoff series Neagley with Maria Sten and is teasing Reacher Season 4. Reacher, of course, is the massively popular Prime Video series based on author Lee Child's Jack Reacher book series. Season 1 of Reacher debuted on the streaming platform in 2022, followed by Season 2 in 2023 and Season 3 in 2025. One of Ritchson's co-stars who appeared in a recurring role throughout all three seasons is Sten, who plays his fellow Army Military Police investigator Frances Neagley. In October of 2024, Prime Video gave the green light to Neagley, which naturally begged the question of whether Ritchson would appear in Sten's series. In a Zoom conversation prior to the release of Reacher Season 3 in February, Ritchson and Sten playfully teased the possibility. 'That would make sense, but we cannot confirm that it would make sense,' Ritchson said. 'It just makes sense in a of hypotheticals," while Sten added, 'Yes, we can neither confirm or deny such rumors.' 'Like if he popped in for a couple of episodes,' Ritchson continued 'But it could happen.' 'It could happen,' Sten added. 'But who knows?' Now, Ritchson's appearance in Neagley has been confirmed. In a post by Marquee Sports on X on Saturday, Ritchson and Sten were pictured filming a scene for Neagley at Wrigley Field in Chicago. To prove that Ritchson wasn't Chicago — where Neagley is set — to merely catch a game with Sten, a post by X user Erik House includes a photo with a camera operator filming a scene. Another post by X user Al Yellon shows that Ritchson and Sten weren't actually filming during an actual Chicago Cubs game, but were in the stands with loads of extras in a section of an otherwise empty Wrigley Field. Alan Ritchson personally chronicled his Chicago visit with an Instagram post on Wednesday, where he is pictured in photos on the set of Neagley with Maria Sten, Lee Child and various cast and crew members from the Reacher spinoff series. Of his visit with the Jack Reacher book author, Ritchson wrote in the Instagram post, 'Reacher himself, Lee Child. I wish everyone had the good fortune of being best friends for life with this man like we are, because we are best friends and he is adopting me officially soon I think.' Also included in Ritchson's Instagram post are photos of Ritchson doing prep work in advance of Reacher Season 4. 'Back into stunts with Buster, Eric and team. Season 4 is going to be the most intensely physical season yet. My body is ready,' Ritchson wrote in the Instagram post. In another photo, Ritchson, who is pictured by wardrobe, writes, '[It's] Ritchson concluded the post by writing, 'Season 4 is right around the corner and dare I say … May be the best season yet?' Neagley, of course, will arrive on Prime Video before Reacher Season 4, although the streamer has yet to announce an official release date. The official logline for Neagley reads, 'Frances Neagley is a private investigator in Chicago. When she learns that a beloved friend from her past has been killed in a suspicious accident, she becomes hell-bent on justice. "Using everything she's learned from Jack Reacher and her time as a member of the 110 Special Investigators, Neagley puts herself on a dangerous path to uncover a menacing evil.' Neagley also stars Greyston Holt, Jasper Jones, Adeline Rudolph, Matthew Del Negro and Damon Herriman. The first three seasons of Reacher are available on Prime Video.

A Disappointing Update About ‘Reacher' Season 4's Release Date
Reacher Amazon Prime Alan Ritchson made news a few days ago when he was seen at a Cubs game next to his Reacher co-star, Maria Sten, aka Neagley. The two were not just taking in a casual game, they were filming a show. But not the show you're thinking about, but rather Sten's Reacher spin-off show, Neagley. The fans in the shot were all actors as well, you're not going to be able to control random Cubs fans and you'd have to get all of them to sign releases. The fact that this is Neagley being shot, not Reacher season 4, creates an exhausting update for its upcoming release date. Reacher has not even started filming yet, and Ritchson says they're just starting stunts and picking out his wardrobe (usually one outfit he wears all season). If Reacher isn't filming yet and season 3 ended a little while back, where does that leave Reacher season 4's potential release date. If we're being generous, let's say Reacher season 4 starts filming July 1. With that, we can extrapolate out the past few seasons' timelines. Here are the release dates. Reacher Amazon Reacher season 3 started filming in November 2023. Production wrapped in 2024 ahead of its February 2025 release date. So with filming and postproduction, that's 15 months. And 15 months from July 1, the estimated filming start date, that takes us to October 2026 for a release date. That's 21 months between seasons, or nearly two years. That's 6 months longer than the gap between seasons 2 and 3. Not great. The idea here is that Neagley is supposed to work as a stop-gap, the spin-off focused on the side-character with Reacher clearly making a guest appearance, as we've seen at this recent Cubs game. Amazon has been setting this concept up for a while now, making sure Neagley is in every season, including season 3 where she was not in the book being adapted. And there are no Neagley-specific books, so they're going to be making things up as they go for this one. I think everyone is very tired of 1.5-3-year gaps between streaming seasons at this point, and it appears Reacher is going to be no exception with its spacing only getting longer.
