Amazon's Reacher Season 3 has shattered viewership records, becoming Prime Video's most-watched returning series ever and outperforming every show since Fallout in its first 19 days.

The Unstoppable Force Meets an Immovable Object

Alan Ritchson returns as the formidable ex-military investigator Jack Reacher, whose combination of brute strength and sharp intellect makes him both the most dangerous and smartest man in any room. This season introduces Dutch actor Olivier Richters (7'2") as Reacher's most physically imposing adversary yet.

Record-Breaking Viewership

According to Variety, Season 3 attracted 54.6 million global viewers in its first 19 days - marking a 0.5% increase over Season 2's performance. International markets showed particularly strong engagement, with major viewership coming from the UK, Germany, and Brazil.

For comparison:

• Fallout: 65 million viewers (first 16 days)
• LOTR: Rings of Power S2: 40 million viewers (first 11 days)

Critical Reception

IGN's 8/10 review praised the season: "While diverging more from its source material than previous installments, Season 3 showcases Reacher at his most ruthless while delivering the same satisfying action fans expect."

With Season 4 already greenlit before Season 3's premiere, Prime Video clearly has big plans for its most valuable action hero. The global appetite for Reacher's brand of justice appears stronger than ever.
