There’s a Dangerous Game in the Trailer For ‘Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan’ Season 3

Though we do know that Prime Video has decided to wrap up its ‘Jack Ryan’ series with the fourth season, it’s far from the end for the Tom Clancy adaptation.

Season 3 is on its way in a couple of months and promises to be full of the action that fans have come to expect.

To give it its fill title, ‘Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan’ has John Krasinski playing the character from the Tom Clancy novels previously brought – to movie theaters – by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine. Ryan, a former Marine injured in the line of duty, becomes a stockbroker before joining the CIA as an analyst and seeing more action than many of his desk-bound colleagues.

The series also stars Wendell Pierce and Abbie Cornish, who play his boss James Greer and girlfriend Cathy Mueller, respectively. Krasinski signed on for four seasons when he originally took the job, and in the later seasons has been involved in writing and show running.

Season 3 will feature new arrivals Nina Hoss as Czech President Alena Kovac and Betty Gabriel as CIA Rome Station Chief Elizabeth Wright.

In this latest season of the action-thriller series, Ryan is working as a CIA case officer in Rome, when he is tipped off that the Sokol Project, a secret plan to restore the Soviet Empire, is being resurrected more than 50 years after it was thought to have been shut down.

Jack embarks on a mission to confirm the intelligence, but things quickly go awry, and he is wrongly implicated in a larger conspiracy. Accused of treason, with a Red Notice out for his arrest, Jack is forced to run from his own government, if he has any hope of uncovering the rogue faction before it’s too late.

Crisscrossing Europe as he is hunted by former allies and new enemies alike, Jack races against the clock to stop the cascade of destabilizing conflicts from leading to global catastrophe…

So, you know, a pretty normal day at the “office” for poor old Jack. And no, we’re not making that joke because of Krasinski’s previous famous TV job.

And even though the plan is to end the show with a fourth season that is arriving most likely in 2023, there is hope for ‘Ryan’ fans as plans are afoot to keep the stories going via a spin-off.

The new show, following the adventures of Domingo “Ding” Chavez, another major character in the ‘Ryan’ stories, is in very early development, to star Michael Peña.

He likely be headlining that if the show makes it to series – the ‘Ryan’ team will introduce the character in the final episode of Season 3, with Peña then becoming a series regular for the fourth season.

‘Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan’ will hit Prime Video on December 21st with an eight-episode Season 3. And you can still stream the first two should you need to catch up in advance.
