Are you a streamer who’s also a fan of Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan character? If so, then there’s one place you want to be, and that’s Amazon Video.
Even casual moviegoers are familiar with Clancy’s Jack Ryan. The character appeared in five films – The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, The Sum of All Fears, and Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit. Amazon’s version is a modern and younger re-imagining of Clancy’s well-liked, pop-culture espionage hero.
The new show follows a younger Jack Ryan played by John Krasinski (The Office). Ryan is a CIA analyst who goes on a dangerous assignment after uncovering a terrorist plot. Each show is set to run for an hour in this 10-episode dramatic series. Amazon has not stated a release date for the new series.
