The fourth season of Reacher has now come to an end, with all episodes available to stream on Prime Video.

The latest outing saw Alan Ritchson's character at the centre of a conspiracy involving powerful politics figures, government agencies and terrorism.

For those who have made their way through all of season 4, it's only natural to wonder whether we'll see Reacher return...

So, what do we know so far?

Read on for everything you need to know about Reacher season 5.

Will there be a Reacher season 5?

There will! In fact, Reacher was renewed for season 5 back in May 2026, before season 4 even debuted.

The new season will be based on Lee Child's 20th Reacher book, Make Me, which was first released in 2015.

The book follows Reacher as he hits the road once again before his train stops in the mysterious town of Mother’s Rest in the Midwest. Soon, he's teaming up with a private investigator for a missing person's case, uncovering a dangerous and deadly criminal conspiracy in the process.

When the renewal was confirmed, Peter Friedlander, head of global television for Amazon MGM Studios, said in a statement: "From Lee Child’s globally beloved novels to its standout on-screen adaptation, Reacher has evolved into a true powerhouse franchise.

"The series’ ability to combine high-octane action with compelling character storytelling continues to resonate with tens of millions of viewers around the world. We’re excited to move forward with a fifth season ahead of season four’s debut and to build on this incredible momentum."

When will Reacher season 5 be released?

We don't yet know when Reacher season 5 will debut, and it's hard to tell from previous releases. Each season has arrived at a different time of year, meaning it has never stuck to a regular pattern.

Still, there is hope that we shouldn't have to wait too long. The show was renewed back in May, well before season 4 even debuted.

Season 5 is currently filming in Canada, with Ritchson recently sharing a video on Instagram from the set.

"What’s that? Am I wearing a parka? That’s a great question," Ritchson said. "I am, yeah. I’m wearing the heaviest Moncler they make because when I woke up this morning (...) I went outside, and mind you, I’m in an RV in a cornfield in the middle of nowhere, so temperatures are a little different out here. But there was snow on the ground. You might call it dew, but I’m pretty sure I know the difference.”

"And it’s really an honour to be shooting Season 5 in the snow while you guys are enjoying season 4," he concluded.

We would therefore imagine that we will see season 5 at some time in the - although that is currently just speculation.

We will keep this page updated with any more concrete information as we get it.

Who will star in Reacher season 5?

As is the standard for Reacher, the fifth season will once again swap out the majority of the cast, with Alan Ritchson's Jack Reacher meeting a whole new group of characters.

This time around, they will be played by Amanda Ip, Jay Baruchel, Ciara Bravo and Kevin Durand, although more stars will surely be announced in due course.

One supporting character we could potentially see pop up is Maria Sten as Frances Neagley, who made appearances in the first three seasons of Reacher before getting her own spin-off show, Neagley. Her return has not yet been confirmed, but we wouldn't rule it out.

Here's a full list of the currently confirmed cast for Reacher season 5:

• Alan Ritchson as Jack Reacher
• Amanda Ip as Michelle Chang
• Jay Baruchel as Chief Buck Bauer
