John Krasinski Returning to Star in ‘Jack Ryan’ Movie for AmazonTom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, the adventure series that proved to be a hit for Amazon MGM, is heading to the movies.
The company is developing a feature film that will see series topliner John Krasinski return to the titular role as the intrepid CIA analyst. Wendell Pierce (The Wire) is also set to return, while Michael Kelly (House of Cards) is in negotiations to come back as well.
Andrew Bernstein, who served as an executive producer and director on season two of the series, will direct the feature, which has a script penned by Aaron Rabin, who served as a co-executive producer and writer on season four.
Jack Ryan was based on the characters and so-called “Ryanverse” created by author Clancy, but placed in modern times. It ran for four seasons on Amazon Prime Video, where it is ranked among Prime’s top three most watched series globally.
