Jack Ryan season 2 is a tighter story than season 1, with Ryan driven by revenge after a devastating loss. The second season also significantly ramped up the action and suspense, making the brilliant analyst even more of an action hero than before. So when does Jack Ryan season 3 release? Here’s everything we know so far.

Jack Ryan Season 3 Release Date Info

Jack Ryan Season 3 Cast

John Krasinski will certainly return as Jack Ryan in season 3 but season 2 left some doubts about which characters will join him. James Greer ended Jack Ryan season 2 believing his time in the field was over because of his worsening heart condition; given Greer’s hatred of being relegated to a ‘desk job’, this could mean Wendell Pierce is exiting the series. It’s also unclear whether Mike November or Harry Baumann will return for Jack Ryan season 3 or if new characters will take their place.

One of the biggest shocks of Jack Ryan season 2 was the complete absence of Dr. Cathy Mueller (Abbie Cornish), who, in Tom Clancy’s novels and movies, is Jack Ryan’s wife. It’s also up in the air whether Abbie Cornish will return in Jack Ryan season 3 or if the series will go in a completely new direction in its continuing reinvention of Jack Ryan.

Jack Ryan Season 3 Story Details

The conclusion of Jack Ryan’s adventure in Venezuela also left his future wide open. Jack Ryan season 1 pointed to his joining Greer in Moscow - which would have echoed Tom Clancy’s most famous story, The Hunt For Red October - but Jack Ryan season 2 pivoted completely and sent the CIA heroes to South America. Jack Ryan season 2 ended with Ryan exposing corruption within the U.S. Senate that shook him but it didn’t indicate what the future (and what Jack Ryan season 3) holds next for Jack. On the plus side, given the switch in creative teams, this uncertainty is an opportunity for anything to happen in Jack Ryan season 3, which is an exciting proposition for fans.
