Quick Answer: The only place to watch Reacher (Seasons 1 and 2) is Prime Video.

Reacher has officially wrapped up its second season, and it was an even bigger hit than Season 1. Reacher Season 2 became the streaming service’s most-watched series of last year just three episodes into the season, per Deadline.

In other words, the action-packed Lee Child adaptation is certainly one to catch up on before Season 3 comes out. Below is a quick guide on where to stream Reacher online, plus details on when Reacher Season 3 is expected to come out.

How to Watch Reacher Seasons 1 & 2 Online

Reacher is a Prime Video exclusive, so you’ll need to get a Prime Video subscription to watch the hit show. If you’re already a Prime member, you should have access to the series.

If you’re not already a Prime subscriber, there are two ways to get access to Prime Video. The first is to sign up for Amazon’s all-inclusive Prime subscription.

This includes Amazon’s famous free two-day Prime shipping, access to special deals, an Audible subscription, and other benefits — as well as access to Prime Video. A Prime membership costs $14.99 a month or $139 a year if you pay annually (students get a discounted rate of $69 a year).

The other way to get Prime Video is to pay for it as a standalone service, sans all the other Prime benefits mentioned above. This option costs $8.99 a month, or $10.99 a month for an ad-free plan. However, if you ever order things on Amazon, the full Prime membership is a much better deal compared to this.

Once you’re signed up for Amazon Prime or Prime Video (à la carte), you’ll be able to stream all episodes of Reacher, Seasons 1 and 2, online here.

Can You Stream Reacher for Free?

If you’ve never been a Prime subscriber, you can watch Reacher for free by taking advantage of Prime’s 30-day free trial. This will let you watch the series (and everything else on Prime Video) for a month without paying. Just remember to cancel before the trial is over to avoid being charged.

When Does Reacher Season 3 Come Out? Release Date, Rumors

Reacher Season 2 just wrapped up with the season finale on Jan. 19, but we’re already clamoring for more. Luckily, it’s on the way.

As with Season 2, Reacher Season 3 will see the titular hero on a totally new mission. Prime Video has already revealed that the forthcoming third season will be based on Child’s seventh Reacher novel, Persuader, which sees Jack going undercover in Boston.

Alan Ritchson — who plays Reacher in the show — told ComicBook.com this about Season 3: “We get to enjoy Reacher in a new world […] It may not have anything to do with family, with his past, he’s just living that adventure out and that’s kind of the direction that we’ve gone and it seems to really be working.”

Ritchson revealed that Season 3 of Reacher was already in production ahead of the Season 2 premiere, so we’ll likely get the third season sometime in 2025.

Where to Buy the Reacher Books

Luckily, if you can’t wait for Season 3 of Reacher to hit Prime Video, there are plenty of Reacher books to enjoy while you wait for the next season. Child has written a whopping 28 Reacher novels, spanning Killing Floor (1997) to The Secret (2023), and a 29th book — In Too Deep — is due out in October of 2024.

You can pick up all 28 Reacher books on Amazon here, in paperback, hardcover, or Kindle versions. The novels are also available as Audible audiobooks (get those with your Prime subscription).
