The success of Prime Video's Reacher has led to a surge in demand for big-budget action shows, prompting other streaming services to hunt for alternatives. Netflix's go-to replacement, The Night Agent, was written and developed by Shawn Ryan, the same writer who penned The Shield. Prime Video's Jack Ryan, which starred John Krasinski, ran for four seasons between 2018 and 2023, and the recent release of Ghost War has shown that there is still a market for big-budget action shows.
Prime Video's success with Reacher has led to a surge in demand for big-budget action shows, prompting other streaming services to hunt for alternatives. Netflix's go-to replacement, The Night Agent, was written and developed by Shawn Ryan, the same writer who penned The Shield.
However, before Reacher's popularity, Prime Video had another action/spy-centric show, Jack Ryan, which starred John Krasinski and ran for four seasons between 2018 and 2023. Although the show was thought to have come to an end, Prime Video brought back the Jack Ryan crew earlier this year for a new spin-off film, Ghost War, which has been sitting comfortably in the top 10 on the platform for over 50 days.
The film's success has shown that there is still a market for big-budget action shows, and other streaming services are likely to follow suit in an attempt to capitalize on this demand. The question remains, however, whether any of these shows can match the level of success achieved by Reacher
