Amazon, Skydance, and Paramount have been such fantastic partners and everyone is excited to roll up their sleeves and get to work on what will be a great season two.” Child said, “Partnering with Amazon Studios for season one of Reacher was a total delight — they had our backs every step of the way, and it really shows, in every line and every frame.

So I’m thrilled we’ll be working together again, for season two. This is very exciting news, and I can’t wait to get started.
