Jack Ryan Season 3 Story

Prime Video’s official synopsis for Jack Ryan season 3 reads: Season Three of the action-thriller series finds Jack Ryan on the run and in a race against time. Jack is wrongly implicated in a larger conspiracy and suddenly finds himself a fugitive out in the cold. Now, wanted by both the CIA and an international rogue faction that he has uncovered, Jack is forced underground, crisscrossing Europe, trying to stay alive, while preventing a massive global conflict. Jack Ryan‘s first two seasons featured domestic threats from Islamic extremists and a corrupt election in Venezuela.

Jack Ryan Season 3 Showrunner

David Scarpa (All the Money in the World) was set to be the new showrunner for Jack Ryan before leaving the show. Then Paul Scheuring, best known as the creator of Fox’s Prison Break, was set to step in for Scarpa, starting with the still-developing season 3. But he has since been replaced by Vaun Wilmott (Star Trek: Discovery) All these showrunner swaps finalize a process that saw the exit of Carlton Cuse (Lost, Bates Motel), who, after initially developing the Tom Clancy revival property for television with co-showrunner Graham Roland, stepped back from his day-to-day showrunner duties in 2019, as Deadline reported. Both Cuse and Roland remain on as executive producers.
