Chris Pratt's THE TERMINAL LIST is Getting a Season 2 and Prequel Series with Taylor Kitsch
Chris Pratt’s action thriller series The Terminal List is getting a second season! Amazon Studios ordered the new season along with an untitled prequel series that will focus on Taylor Kitsch’s character from The Terminal List, Ben Edwards.
It looks like Amazon is looking to turn this into a big franchise, which is awesome! I loved the first season of the series, and I was hoping that we’d get to see that story continue. The prequel is just an added bonus!
The first season of The Terminal List is a revenge thriller in which James Reece returns home after his entire platoon of Navy SEALs is ambushed, only to discover new dark forces working against him and endangering the ones he loves. When his family is murdered, he embarks on a mission of vengeance.
The prequel is described as an “elevated espionage thriller that follows Ben’s (Kitsch) journey from Navy SEAL to CIA paramilitary operator, exploring the true darker side of warfare and the human cost that comes with it.”
The two shows are being developed by The Terminal List creator, showrunner, and executive producer David DiGilio. The show is based on the novel series by Jack Carr, and it’s being reported that there are other characters who have or have not appeared yet on The Terminal List that will be featured in the prequel, “including Pratt’s Navy SEAL James Reece and Raife Hastings, a former SEAL pal of Reece’s whose potential arrival was set up in Season 1 of the mothership series.”
Pratt previously hinted that more was coming, saying: “To the rabid fans of The Terminal List out there, you have nothing to worry about. We love you and appreciate your support. It’s our life’s mission to make sure you can come back to the well. We are working away.”
The rest of the main cast of the conspiracy thriller’s first season also included Constance Wu, Riley Keough, Arlo Mertz and Jeanne Tripplehorn.
Antoine Fuqua is also an executive producer on the show and producers include Max Adams, a writer who is a former Army Ranger, and Pratt’s longtime coach Jared Shaw who is a former Navy SEAL.
