Reacher
Not a lot seems to be known aboutReacherseason 4, but a concerning update surrounding its production suggests that theNeagleyspin-off must add one character to its roster.
So far,Reacherhas performed incredibly well on Amazon Prime Video, with each of its installments earning almost unanimous acclaim from critics.
Even from a commercial standpoint, the IP’s value only seems to have grown, explaining whyReacherseason 4 and aNeagleyspin-off showare now underway.
Given how, unlike the parent series, theNeagleyspin-off show will not adapt any books and follow an original narrative, it is hard not to be curious about how it will turn out.
It has been confirmed that it will follow the titular character’s crime-solving endeavors as a private investigator, but little seems to be known about its other cast members.
Regardless of how the spin-off show unfolds, it should include one major character from its parent series after one majorReacherproduction update.

Reports Suggest Reacher Season 4’s Production Will Only Start After Neagley Season 1’s Completion
Many reports have confirmed that afterReacherseason 3, theNeagleyspin-off’s first installment is now in production.
While that is great news, it has also been reported (viaTV Line) that, sinceNeagleylargely shares its crew with its parent series,Reacherseason 4’s production may not begin until the spin-off’s filming is completely done.
If the people behind the franchise are primarily focusing on theNeagleyspin-off for now, viewers will likely have to wait for a while before they can watchReacherseason 4.

All three seasons of Reacher have included exciting action sequences and amazing characters, cementing it as one of the best shows on Prime Video.
Although theAmazon Prime Video detective serieshas never experienced any significant dips in critical ratings, its second season was widely considered an inferior installment compared to season 1.
With season 3, however, the show seemingly returned to form and, in turn, raised even more hype for what lies ahead in the franchise.

To ensure that viewers do not missAlan Ritchson’s Jack Reachera little too much while waiting for season 4, theNeagleyspin-off can feature him in a smaller capacity.
Just like Neagley has brief but memorable roles in bothReacherseasons 1 and 3, despite not being one of the main characters, Jack Reacher, too, can appear in the spin-off’s closing arc to help Neagley.
The parent series has already established that,unlike Reacher, Neagley does not shy away from reaching out for help.
…The spin-off must ensure that Ritchson’s Jack Reacher has a limited role because his presence in the series could shift the entire focus on him, killing the point of having a spin-off dedicated to Neagley.
In fact, towards theend ofReacherseason 2, she even asks the Alan Ritchson character to treat her like family and stay in touch.
Owing to these plot developments, Reacher’s return in theNeagleyspin-off would be consistent with the series' established story beats.
However, the spin-off must ensure that Ritchson’s Jack Reacher has a limited role because his presence in the series could shift the entire focus on him, killing the point of having a spin-off dedicated to Neagley.
