Reacher star Alan Ritchson believes the action crime drama could run for 10 seasons

Could Reacher run for 10 seasons? Series star Alan Ritchson believes the action crime drama has the momentum to make it happen.

Alan Ritchson has plenty of reasons to smile.

The actor is currently starring in the Amazon Prime Video crime drama Reacher, and the show has been a hit with audiences and critics alike. Each season has scored over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes, and the ratings have been healthy. That’s why Ritchson sees a bright future for the show.

“Who knows what demands will be placed on my career, what Amazon will want to do, what audiences will continue to show up,” Alan Ritchson told Josh Horowitz during an appearance on Happy Sad Confused. “Really, at the end of the day, the audience will decide. I think, I suspect, and I could be wrong about this, but because season three was so effective, it was such a great season, and so many people tuned in for it – to know that three seasons in they’re still sending it.”

The actor promises that season four, which premiered August 12, will be even bigger. In fact, if the momentum keeps up, Ritchson can see the show going for 10 seasons. “Four goes even further. Four is even better. I think the audience will show up and will grow,” he argued. “I think we’ll grow for season four, and I think if we do that will educate us on what our future looks like. But I always felt like in my head, I would love to get to 10. It just seems like a really cool number and it would honor everybody. The audience that supported it, Amazon and the work that they did to make this thing what it is, and [Lee Child] and his work. Then for generations people can just enjoy the journey of Reacher, which is an exciting one.”

Reacher Season 4 is currently streaming on Prime Video.
