Amazon’s hit action series Reacher is expanding beyond the adventures of the titular nomadic avenger – and we now have a new update on the next chapter. While we await a release date for the highly anticipated Reacher Season 4, which will once again find man-mountain Alan Ritchson in the lead, Maria Sten has now taken to social media to share some exciting news about her upcoming spin-off, Neagley.

Coming 15 weeks after Sten first revealed that filming on Neagley had begun, the actress has now taken to Instagram to reveal that that’s a wrap on the Reacher spin-off. As well as offering an update on the status of production, Sten has also provided some hype for the series, promising fans that it will be “a wild one.”

"That’s a wrap on #Neagley season 1! This story is so so special, folks. I cannot wait for you all to see what we’ve cooked up!

Reacher star Alan Ritchson has provided a new-look behind the scenes of the upcoming fourth season while saying Reacher’s next adventure “May be the best season yet?” The actor and real-life behemoth (complimentary), took to Instagram to reveal that, not only will he return to the role of Jack Reacher for the spin-off project, Neagley, but that he has also now started work on Reacher Season 4. You can check out what Ritchson had to say (and show) about Reacher Season 4 below.

“I owe my career to the people standing next to me. Legends… all of them. Stopped by the Neagley set to see my dear friend @mariasten who is absolutely crushing it,” he said of his cameo in the spin-off, before teasing the stunts and intensity of Reacher’s next outing.

“Back into stunts with Buster, Eric and team. Season 4 is going to be the most intensely physical season yet.

Jack Reacher has been spotted out and about in the real-world in our first look at the upcoming Reacher spin-off, Neagley. The action series has proven to be a massive hit for Amazon Prime Video, with the studio and streamer now looking to branch out into a Reacher shared universe, starting with Neagley starring Maria Sten as Frances Neagley. And Amazon is wasting no time in getting the spin-off to screens.

While it had not been confirmed that Alan Ritchson’s Jack Reacher would appear alongside Sten’s Neagley in the spin-off series, it has now been revealed that he absolutely will, with the pair spotting filming scenes for the show during a recent face-off between the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox at Chicago's Wrigley Field (via MLB). While the images and footage don’t give much away, Ritchson is sporting his usual stoic expression which gives way...

Prime Video's Reacher universe is officially expanding — and it’s not doing things by the book. In fact, fans got their first real glimpse at the highly anticipated spin-off Neagley in one of the last places anyone expected: the stands of Chicago’s Wrigley Field. That’s right. During a Cubs vs. White Sox game this past Saturday, Neagley star Maria Sten and Alan Ritchson were spotted filming scenes right in the middle of the action. Ritchson, as one would expect, blended in about as well as an elephant in a petting zoo. Far from being a behind-the-scenes leak, the footage was captured and shared by Marquee Sports Network, confirming what fans had long suspected — Ritchson is definitely showing up in the spin-off series.

Those looking for the 411 on Crime 101are in luck, as Chris Hemsworth and Halle Berry's upcoming heist thriller has stolen a high-profile date in Amazon MGM Studios' theatrical release calendar. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Crime 101, based on the crime novella of the same name by author Don Winslow, will open in theaters on Feb. 13, 2026, just in time for Valentine's Day, because who needs flowers when you have an Avenger in action outside the MCU? It also coincides with the beginning of Presidents' Day weekend.

The studio behind Crime 101 has reportedly committed to Feb. 13, 2026, despite it being the same day that Emerald Fennell's controversial Wuthering Heights' adaptation opens in theaters, and a highly curious untitled MCU Phase 6 movie. This release date takes advantage of the long holiday weekend that often presents moviegoers with free time to visit the theater. The addition of Crime 101 to the...

Prestige television can go out of its way to deliver high-concept ideas with an all-star cast, a puzzle box mystery, and an abundance of visual effects, but sometimes, all a show really needs to be successful is a big guy bringing the beatdown. "Reacher" has been a tremendous success for Prime Video, with its third and latest season setting new viewership records for the streaming service. There doesn't seem to be any sign of Alan Ritchson's titular behemoth slowing down anytime soon.

Based on the popular novels by author Lee Child, the "Reacher" series follows ex-Army Major Jack Reacher as he hops from location to location, dispensing justice through his potent cocktail of stature and smarts. Indeed, while he can lay the smackdown on just about anyone if it's needed, Reacher is highly proficient at using his wits to resolve a conflict before it escalates further. A large part...

Alan Ritchson may be off saving the day again soon—but fans will have to wait longer than usual to see it. Following the action-packed conclusion of Reacher Season 3, Prime Video has confirmed a fourth season is on the way. However, according to a new report from TVLine, season 4 won’t begin filming until production wraps on the Frances Neagley spinoff series, which stars Maria Sten as Neagley. The two shows share much of the same crew, meaning Reacher will have to wait its turn.

Season 3, which debuted earlier this year, saw Ritchson's Reacher go back to his solo roots, delivering the kind of no-nonsense justice that made season 1 such a breakout hit in 2022. After a more mixed reception to season 2, the most recent chapter was praised as a return to form. With Reacher now Prime Video’s biggest original series, fans expected a yearly rollout to continue uninterrupted. But that plan might be shifting.

A brief exchange at the close of Reacher‘s Season 3 finale seemed to set the tone for the Prime Video hit’s upcoming Neagley spinoff.

After Jack Reacher (played by Alan Ritchson), Frances Neagley (Maria Sten) and DEA agents Susan Duffy (Sonya Cassidy) and Guillermo Villanueva (Roberto Montesinos) got the best of the supervillainous Xavier Quinn (Brian Tee), Neagley shared an observation with her onetime 110th MP Special Investigations Unit boss.

What Do We Know About the upcoming Reacher spin-off series centered on Frances Neagley? More than you may think. The Jack Reacher series starring Alan Ritchson has been a huge hit for Prime Video, and the spin-off has been in development for quite some time. From plot, casting news, and more, let’s dive in and look at what is coming up in the new addition to the Reacher franchise.

Who is Frances Neagley?

A key ally of Jack Reacher, Frances Neagley has been a recurring character in one Lee Child novel, Bad Luck and Trouble, the eleventh in the series, in 2007. Neagley was included in the first season of Reacher, based on the first novel, Killing Floor, which surprised many fans. Maria Sten’s performance became an instant hit with fans, which has resulted in her inclusion in all three seasons of Reacher to date, along with her own spin-off.

This post contains spoilers from Long Bright River episode 5 from this point forward.

After the realization in the previous episode that Simon could be the connective tissue of the murders as a consistent figure at the youth center, Long Bright River episode 5 opens with Mickey understanding what Paula said about the perp. Mickey and Truman agree that Simon is a predator, but there's still questions about if he could be capable of being a serial killer. Truman worries this has turned personal for Mickey.

Truman stops by the youth center for an application for afternoon help and asks the officer is Simon still works there. He hasn't worked at this particular youth center in a while, but there are over two dozen in the city. Mickey learns that another sex worker, Emily Morris, was found with a possible connection to the others. This time, it wasn't an insulin overdose but a gunshot.

This post contains spoilers from Long Bright River episode 4 from this point forward.

Following the revelation at the end of episode 3, in which Paula recognized the perp as a cop, Long Bright River episode 4 opens with Mickey talking it over with Truman. The cop was using his power to exploit women for sexual acts, and Mickey believes Paula. She also clears the air with Truman about why she went to Dock's without him. She feared what Dock could reveal about Mickey that she hadn't shared with Truman.

In a flashback to 2005, G-Pop drops Mickey and Kacey off at the police's youth center, which Mickey doesn't want to attend. Even back then, Kacey and Paula were best friends. Mickey keeps to herself and reads a book when Officer Cleare (Matthew Del Negro) talks to her about reading Steinbeck. She seems to regret that moment where she allowed someone (Paula) to...

Based on the novel of the same name, “Long Bright River” features Amanda Seyfried in an all-new on-screen uniform for the Emmy-winning actress.

Seyfried stars as Mickey Fitzpatrick, a Philly beat cop dedicated to solving the mysterious murders targeting young women on the Avenue, many of whom struggle with addiction and turn to sex work to survive. While other men on the force are quick to categorize them as overdoses, Mickey sees something they do not.

The eight-episode limited series attempts to solve both a murder mystery and a family one. As Mickey pieces together evidence to solve the murder mystery, she unveils memories from her own past.

Seyfried stars in the series alongside Nicholas Pinnock, John Doman and Dash Mihok. For a full breakdown on all of the cast of the Peacock series, keep reading.

Alan Ritchson became a household name and the face of a rip-roaring franchise when he began portraying the silent-and-lethal titular character in the 2022 action crime sensation Reacher, an adaptation of the popular Lee Child novels that focuses on the perpetually wandering former U.S. Army military policeman as trouble seems to follow him everywhere he goes. The self-proclaimed hobo becomes caught up in one dangerous conspiracy after the next, defending the innocent and using his brute strength and extensive knowledge to take down one nefarious foe after the next.

Both a critical and commercial knockout with an action-packed third season currently airing, Reacher has completely captivated audiences all across the world with Ritchson's phenomenal performances, gripping storylines, and colorful supporting characters. In October 2024, a spin-off starring Reacher's fiercely loyal best friend Frances Neagley was officially announced to be in the works at the streaming service, with Maria Sten set to headline the highly-buzzed-about companion series.

Alan Ritchson has hinted at appearing in Reacher spinoff Neagley. His co-star Maria Sten will reprise her role as private investigator Frances Neagley in the upcoming Prime Video series.

Neagley will have Frances investigating the death of an old friend to determine whether it was truly an accident, or if foul play was involved. Reacher producer Nick Santora is spearheading the spinoff show, so fans have naturally wondered with whether Jack Reacher could cross over to help Frances's investigation.

When the Reacher spinoff series was announced last year, it was confirmed that the show would focus on fan-favorite character Frances Neagley, Reacher's trusted confidante and long-time colleague. Danish actress Maria Sten was also announced to reprise the role.

Additionally, Nick Santora, the executive producer and showrunner of Reacher, teamed up with Nicholas Wootton to develop the series. The pair had previously worked together on the crime drama Prison Break. Executive producers on the spinoff include Santora, Wootton, Lee Child, Don Granger, Sam Hill, Adam Higgs, Lisa Kussner, David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Matt Thunell.

The Prime Video action thriller series, Reacher, based on the character first introduced in Lee Child’s novels, has been a resounding success, garnering rave reviews from critics and audiences. As if that weren’t already impressive, the series is expanding its universe with a new spin-off focusing on the character of Francis Neagley. The character, portrayed by Maria Sten, is a fan-favorite addition to the main series, and she first appeared in Season 1 as a former military colleague of Jack Reacher.

Reacher season 3 will be reaching the Prime Video streaming service very soon, with the first three episodes of the new season dropping on February 20th and the remaining episodes airing every Thursday until March 27th. With that three episode premiere date right around the corner, a trailer for Reacher season 3 has made its way online. However, late last year, a Frances Neagley-focused series was officially ordered at Amazon. The show, officially titled Neagley, will star Maria Sten as the titular character.

The series has started production and Variety reports that five new names have been added to the cast as regulars. The actors cast on the show are Greyston Holt as Detective Hudson Riley; Jasper Jones (King Ivory) as Keno; Adeline Rudolph as Renee; Matthew Del Negro as Pierce Woodrow; and Damon Herriman as Lawrence Cole.

There are several other movies and shows similar to Netflix's epic period Western series American Primeval. American Primeval was written by Mark L. Smith, who co-wrote the screenplay for The Revenant with Alejandro G. Iñárritu. Peter Berg directs all six episodes of American Primeval. Taylor Kitsch leads an ensemble cast as Isaac Reed, which features Betty Gilpin, Dane DeHaan, Saura Lightfoot-Leon, Shea Whigham, Lucas Neff, and Kim Coates as Brigham Young. In addition to Young, American Primeval alters several real-life historical details and figures.

American Primeval uniquely blends brutal and violent elements of the horror genre with the classic Western. Despite its 59% Rotten Tomatoes score, it earned an 86% audience score and has been in Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows in the United States since it was released on January 9, 2025. Kitsch previously starred in the Peter Berg film Lone Survivor alongside Mark Wahlberg and Berg's classic television series Friday Night Lights.

Movies like Sicario offer explosive action, thought-provoking political intrigue, and awards-pedigree acting talent. Released in 2015, Sicario is a slow-burning thriller about the nuances of drug cartel operations and the border between the U.S. and Mexico. Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the movie focuses on three perspectives: an FBI agent, played by Emily Blunt; a secretive government agent, played by Josh Brolin; and an even shadowier assassin, played by Benicio del Toro. The film was a critical and commercial success, and it got a sequel three years later, Sicario: Day of the Soldado.

Only the best action-thriller movies remain comparable to Sicario, with its stunning cinematography and deeply ugly subject matter. However, many fan-favorite films by director Denis Villeneuve and other acclaimed filmmakers hit the same spots. Several are also available for subscribers on major streaming platforms or even for free, making it easy to find movies like Sicario for fans...

The neo-Western film genre reimagines the themes and ideas of classic Western movies for a modern audience. Often, this takes the form of a Western-style movie set in contemporary times, or if it was set in an earlier time period, the film blended genres and presented itself as a more targeted critique of American societal values than whats normally seen in a typical Western. Neo-Westerns are often much darker stories that tackle existential questions of life, death, and the complexities of determining good from evil.

Many of the best modern Western movies embrace a neo-Western sensibility and include works by some of the best directors of all time, such as Paul Thomas Anderson, Jim Jarmusch, and the Coen brothers. While many of these films dont focus on traditional bandits, cowboys, or outlaws, they often utilize the desolate landscapes and brooding atmospheres of classic Western cinema. The best neo-Westerns ever made...

Amazon Studios’ feature film “Crime 101” is rounding out its cast.

Jennifer Jason Leigh, Nick Nolte, Tate Donovan, Babak Tafti, Payman Maadi, Deborah Hedwall, Devon Bostick, Paul Adelstein, Drew Powell and Matthew Del Negro have boarded the upcoming crime thriller, which will be released in theaters.

They join previously announced cast members Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins and Halle Berry. Bart Layton wrote the script, which is based on a novella by Don Winslow, and will direct.

Per the logline, Winslow’s original story follows a series of high level jewelry thefts up and down the Pacific Coast Highway that have gone unsolved for years, mostly because the perpetrator has lived by a strict code he calls ‘Crime 101.’ Police attribute the thefts to the Colombian cartels, but Detective Lou Lubesnick’s gut says it’s the work of just one man. Now the lone-wolf jewel...

From family shenanigans to R-rated humor, TV shows set in the 1990s blend nostalgia with cultural relevance for both old and new audiences. City on a Hill authentically showcases Boston's crime scene of the '90s, while Cruel Summer twists '90s nostalgia with modern storytelling. Everything Sucks! delivers a realistic portrayal of '90s high school life, while Clarice dives deep into a '90s crime drama with a female lead.

The sole purpose of rewatching some of the best TV shows of the 1990s is to bring the audience back to the nostalgia of the decade. However, there are some modern series set in the iconic era of grunge fashion, upbeat pop music and changing technology. While these shows are more contemporary, they focus on the social and historical issues that defined the time.

From nostalgic, family-centered shenanigans to R-rated comedies, they offer a combination of humor, drama,...

Exclusive: Matthew Del Negro (City on a Hill) is joining season 3 of Mayor of Kingstown.

Del Negro will play the role of Will Breen, a charming, seemingly good natured corrections officer at the Kingstown Women’s Prison. He will recur for five episodes.

The 10-episode third season of the Paramount+ drama series will premiere Sunday, June 2. In Season 3, a series of explosions rock Kingstown and its citizens, as a new face of the Russian mob sets up shop in the city, and a drug war rages inside and outside prison walls. The pressure is on Mike McLusky (Jeremy Renner) to end the war but things get complicated when a familiar face from his incarcerated past threatens to undermine the Mayor’s attempts to keep the peace among all factions.

Most recently, Del Negro co-starred as Detective Chris Caysen on Showtime’s City on a Hill opposite Kevin Bacon and Aldis Hodge.

Laroy, Texas is a twisted town in a circle of Hell with dark characters and multiple homicides. Ray, mistaken for a hitman, embarks on a chaotic journey with the impish P.I. Skip. The film's clever complexities lead to confusion, resembling Coen Brothers' work but lacks trust in dark themes.

Laroy, Texas introduces a smirking hitman in a familiar but effectively tense opening that ends with the man burying the remains of his night's work. As Harry, played unnervingly by Dylan Baker, digs, he receives a call from another client, "Where's Laroy?" he asks indignantly. The cut to the title tells us, as does a montage of ranch shops, one with "Texas" painted on it, and the twanging guitar that picks up. As does Brad Leland grinning at his car dealership with the name Adam Ledoux when we all know it's Buddy Garrity. Where's Laroy, Harry? "Texas forever, creep."

A darkly comic crime odyssey set in middle-of-nowhere America, writer-director Shane Atkinson’s Laroy, Texas wears its Coen brothers influence on its sleeve. And while it never quite reaches the hilarious heights or existential depths of the Coens’ finest work, it does offer similarly enjoyable mixture of the macabre and the absurd.

Atkinson’s film begins with a regular schmuck named Ray (John Magaro) being summoned to a greasy diner and handed an envelope full of photos that show his wife, Stacy-Lynn (Megan Stevenson), cheating on him. It’s devastating information to receive, and it doesn’t help that Ray is hearing it from a guy like Skip (Steve Zahn)—a self-styled private eye who dresses in a bolo tie and cowboy hat, and swears that he’s as much of a detective as any of the other boys on the force, even if he has spelled the word incorrectly on his business cards.
