  • Reacher season 5 has officially been renewed at Prime Video
  • The news was announced ahead of season 4, which is set to debut at some point this year
  • No plot details have been confirmed for Reacher season 5

Reacher season 5 has been greenlit by Prime Video, so there'll be plenty more episodes of the hit action series to enjoy. It has been hugely successful, with Reacher season 3 becoming Prime Video's biggest returning show last year.

In fact, Reacher season 3 was so popular that it even beat Fallout season 1's record, which says a lot about how well-received the show has been.

Now, before Reacher season 4 has even been released, fans can rest easy knowing that it will return with episodes, and the future of the popular action series hasn't been left in limbo.

We're still eagerly waiting for a release date for season 4, but it is expected to arrive at some point in 2026.

What do we know about Reacher season 5?

So far, nothing! But we do know that season 4 will adapt Lee Child's 13th Reacher novel, Gone Tomorrow, where protagonist Jack Reacher investigates a suicide on a New York City subway.

Considering there are 30 Reacher novels at the time of writing, it's impossible to guess what storyline season 5 might choose to follow next. Season 1 followed the first one, but season 2 jumped all the way to the 11th, and Reacher season 3 went back and adapted the 7th novel. So the TV adaptation has taken a non-linear approach to the source material so far.

With that in mind, we'll just have to be patient until we hear more about where Reacher's story is set to go next. Wherever we end up, I'm sure it will continue to keep us on the edge of our seats.

For now, though, we can eagerly await further news on Reacher season 4 as it has been confirmed that it will arrive at some point this year.

In an interview with Collider back in March, lead actor Alan Ritchson confirmed the news, saying, “Well, we finished shooting Season 4 of Reacher. It’s by far the best season we’ve had yet, so it’s coming. It’ll be out this year.”
