Reacher Season 3 Breaks Viewership Records on Prime Video

Reacher Season 3 has become a global sensation on Prime Video, marking the highest viewership for a returning season and the most-watched season since Fallout in its first 19 days.

Portrayed by Alan Ritchson, Reacher is a former U.S. Army military police major who travels across America, stumbling into trouble and outsmarting villains. Known for his brawn and brains, he’s both a formidable fighter and a sharp detective.

In Season 3, Reacher faces a towering challenge in Olivier Richters, a 7 ft 2 in Dutch giant who tests his limits like never before.

Variety reports that Reacher Season 3 drew an impressive 54.6 million viewers worldwide in its first 19 days, a figure nearly as massive as the character himself.

This represents a 0.5% uptick from Season 2’s viewership over the same period, signaling growing global appeal for the Prime Video hit. Over half of its audience hails from outside the U.S., with standout popularity in the U.K., Germany, and Brazil.

For comparison, Fallout garnered 65 million viewers in its first 16 days in April 2024, while The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2 attracted 40 million viewers in 11 days following its August 2024 debut.

IGN’s review of Reacher Season 3 gave it an 8/10, noting: “Season 3 strays further from its source novel than prior seasons, but Reacher’s relentless intensity delivers a thrilling ride.”

Fans can look forward to more action, as Reacher Season 4 was greenlit before Season 3 premiered.
