Skydance Exec: Bringing Jack Reacher To TV Is “Realistic” In Current Landscape​


Skydance Media President and Chief Operating Officer Jesse Sisgold was on a Produced By panel today titled “The Keys to the Kingdom: Financiers & Distributors.” In discussing Skydance’s streaming and television ventures, Sisgold brought up the Jack Reacher series and why Skydance is going the streaming/TV route.

Tom Cruise played the title character in two films. The 2016 sequel, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back under-performed, so a third film was unlikely.

“We’re just being realistic about the landscape,” Sisgold said. “For us, those straight down the middle, awesome action thrillers in that mid-range budget, they just seem to lend themselves to an episodic experience. It’s not the old days [of television], where you had to limit it down to a pretty low scale.”

ahead of Amazon’s upfront presentation, Prime Video announced that the global hit series Reacher has been renewed for a fifth season ahead of its highly anticipated fourth season premiere. The early renewal underscores the continued success and global appeal of the action-packed drama, which remains one of Prime Video’s most popular franchises.

Previous seasons of Reacher are available exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

Season Four will continue the high-stakes storytelling that has made Reacher a standout global hit, with Alan Ritchson reprising his role as Jack Reacher. Additional details on the upcoming season will be announced at a later date.

Based on the 13th book in Lee Child’s global best-selling series, Gone Tomorrow, in the fourth season of the action-packed series, when a chance encounter with a distraught stranger on a subway goes horribly wrong, Jack Reacher is drawn into a complex and deadly game that pits him against ruthless foes from the highest echelons of power.

We’re grateful to our outstanding creative partners, cast, and crew—Nick, Alan, Lee, Skydance, and CBS Studios—for continuing to bring this world to life in such a bold and compelling way.”

Based on the bestselling novels by Lee Child, who is an executive producer on the series, Reacher is produced by Paramount Television Studios and Amazon MGM Studios.
