‘The Terminal List’ Season 2 Sets October 2026 Premiere Date!!

Prime Video continued to double down on its slate of dadcore military shows during its annual upfront presentation on Monday. The day began with a shock early announcement that the streamer’s flagship action juggernaut, Reacher, had been renewed for Season 5 amid the Lee Childs adaptation’s continued global success. Surprisingly, it came before a date was even set for Season 4, though the series’ towering star, Alan Ritchson, confirmed back in March that it will be back before the end of 2026. While fans will have to wait a while longer to learn when his next tour of duty will be, the date has just been confirmed, however, for the return of another of the platform’s gritty thrillers.

Over four years after Chris Pratt first took the field in Season 1, The Terminal List will finally redeploy for Season 2 on October 21, with all eight episodes dropping on the platform at once. In addition to starring once more as Navy SEAL commander James Reece, Pratt will be executive producing with The Equalizer director Antoine Fuqua, showrunner David DiGilio, and Jack Carr, whose novels the global hit is based on. The news was further confirmed with an official video showing a disheveled Reece out at sea with a map and the date attached. Building on the foundation established back in 2022, this run will be based on Carr‘s second novel, True Believer, and track Reece’s struggle against sinister forces conspiring to completely overturn the world order.

When viewers last saw Pratt‘s vengeful SEAL, he was exactly where the short release date video found him — on a boat bound for Mozambique. Having completed his list and gotten revenge on everyone responsible for the deaths of his platoon and family, he’s now on a path of violent redemption, now labeled a domestic terrorist and unwelcome in his country. He’ll seek his new purpose across Southern and Northern Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, eventually uncovering a conspiracy spanning from Moscow to Langley with unexpected ties to his family history. A new setting means new allies and enemies alike for Reece, with Costa Ronin, Olga Kurylenko, Yul Vazquez, Arnold Vosloo, Shiraz Tzarfati, and more among the new international cast members.

Pratt‘s busy schedule may have made it tricky to return to The Terminal List, but his return, coming off of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and Mercy, promises to be worth the wait. He’ll be rejoined by plenty of fan-favorites from the main series and the prequel, The Terminal List: Dark Wolf, including Tom Hopper, Constance Wu, Dar Salim, and Luke Hemsworth. The series also landed one massive new addition in the form of The Last of Us star Gabriel Luna as Freddy Strain, a beloved character from Carr‘s novels bound to aid Reece on the road to redemption. Also coming back is a continued focus on authenticity, with former Navy SEAL Jared Shaw and Army Ranger Max Adams serving as executive producers and overseeing the action and work to maintain a level of realism, from the military mindset and brotherhood to the rigorous methods of Special Operations. Navy SEAL Ray Mendoza, who previously worked on Alex Garland‘s Warfare, also served among the many veterans advising, writing, and acting in Season 2.
