Send Push
Fans of Reacher were still riding the high of Season 3’s explosive finale in March when a new surprise began to unfold—one that extends the universe even further. While the wait for Reacher Season 4 might stretch on for a bit, devoted viewers may not have to wait long to see Alan Ritchson back in action. That’s because Prime Video is working on a brand-new spinoff centered around Reacher’s longtime ally, Frances Neagley, played by Maria Sten.

Alan Ritchson teases fans with live Cubs game shoot, fuels rumors of a new ‘Reacher’ spin-off

Sten, who has consistently portrayed the tough-as-nails ex-military investigator in all three seasons, is finally stepping into the spotlight with her own show. Though her role in the latest season wasn’t as central as before, fans won’t have to worry—Neagley is on the way, and all signs point to a release ahead of Reacher Season 4. And based on a recent filming sighting, we might also be treated to a guest appearance by none other than Jack Reacher himself.


Speculation caught fire after a now-viral video surfaced on Instagram, showing Ritchson and Sten drinking beer at a Chicago Cubs game. But this wasn’t just a casual outing between co-stars. According to Marquee Sports Network, the duo was actually filming during the game. Considering Reacher Season 4 reportedly hasn’t started production yet, fans quickly pieced it together—this had to be a scene for Neagley.

That assumption holds weight, as early reports suggest the spinoff is actively filming. Ritchson’s presence hints at a likely cameo or perhaps a deeper role in setting up Neagley’s solo storyline. It’s a smart move—spinoffs thrive on continuity, and what better way to draw fans in than with a familiar face? Ritchson’s appearance is expected to be part of the promotional push, tapping into the built-in fanbase and keeping the Reacher momentum alive.
