by

After over a year’s wait, Reacher Season 3 has at last hit Prime Video. The first three episodes of the new season premiered on February 20, 2025, bringing immense joy and anticipation to fans who eagerly awaited the season. From what we have seen in the first three episodes, it seems that the new season has taken lessons from past mistakes and is now charting a course that better reflects Reacher’s character.

How Many Episodes Are in ‘Reacher’ Season 3?

In terms of the number of episodes, Reacher Season 3 follows the pattern set by previous seasons with a total of eight episodes. The initial three episodes were launched on February 20, 2025, and subsequent episodes will be released weekly, every Thursday at 12 AM Pacific Time (3 AM Eastern Time), wrapping up with the season finale on March 27, 2025. This is a shift from Season 2, where episodes were also released weekly but on Fridays instead.

Episode Title Date

The upcoming episodes will follow suit, debuting on Amazon Prime Video just like Seasons 1 and 2 before them. After their initial airtime of 12 AM Pacific Time / 3 AM Eastern Time, these episodes will be accessible for streaming anytime on Prime Video.

What Can Viewers Expect from ‘Reacher’ Season 3?

In Season 3 of Reacher, he resumes his lone-wolf existence while collaborating with the DEA to dismantle Zachary Beck’s illegal empire. By infiltrating Beck’s organization, Reacher aims to accomplish two tasks simultaneously. He embarks on a mission to locate an informant named Teresa, whose whereabouts are uncertain during the initial three episodes, and at the same time, targets one of Beck’s associates, Francis Xavier Quinn, who bears a personal grudge against due to previous encounters.

In the newest season, Reacher operates independently, much like he did in Season 1. After a season that emphasized collaboration as key to success, audiences have found they prefer Reacher’s individual portrayal in Season 3. The second season of the show received heavy criticism due to its depiction of Reacher as part of a team. Jack Reacher is often characterized by his solitary, self-reliant nature – he doesn’t answer to anyone and has only his belongings with him. This independent streak was missed by viewers, particularly those who had read Child’s novels and were well-acquainted with Reacher’s character.

In Season 3, Reacher will rely on his intelligence and abilities to navigate difficult predicaments, as the show is dedicated to portraying him more authentically according to the original novels. With a formidable adversary to confront, a possible bond with Beck’s son, the revelation that Quinn is still alive, and a hint of a romantic entanglement with Duffy, Reacher will certainly face numerous trials in Season 3. As such, we can anticipate that the resilient Reacher might be compelled to step out of his usual comfort zone, offering viewers an insight into the character’s true potential and the boundaries he may be willing to cross when it comes to morality.

‘Reacher’ Will Return for Season 4

It’s clear that the producers of the show “Reacher” are confidently banking on its success, as they renewed it for a fourth season way before the airing of its third one in October 2024. This long-running success is further highlighted by Season 3, which received an impressive 95% approval rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. If the pattern between Seasons 2 and 3 continues, viewers can anticipate another season featuring Reacher in action, possibly in a new environment with new characters, around April 2026.
