Alongside interviewing stars such as Selin Hizli, Rose Ayling-Ellis, Harlan Coben, and Chelsea Peretti, Jake was lucky enough to visit the set of Aardman and Netflix's Wallace and Gromit: A Vengeance Most Fowl in 2024, getting the chance to chat with four-time Academy Award winner Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham. Jake has also worked for other publications, including Agents of Fandom. You can also hear Jake every week as the resident film and TV journalist on Track Radio.

After a brutal third season that earned acclaim from both critics and fans, the hype for Prime Video's best skull-cracking action series, Reacher, was immediately high. Recently, it was confirmed that Alan Ritchson's titular former U.S. Army military police major will return for his fourth outing on August 12, with the hotly anticipated Neagley spin-off starring Maria Sten following almost one month later on September 16.

Just a couple of weeks before Reacher makes a kick-ass return to our screens, the series and its upcoming spin-off made an historic trip to San Diego Comic-Con 2026 this weekend, looking to help build this burgeoning universe. Both Reacher and Neagley took over Ballroom 20 at 3:30 p.m. PT this Saturday, July 25, with Ritchson, Sten, and more from the cast taking part, and fans hoping for some exclusive news, updates, and first-looks at the upcoming fourth season, the Neagley spin-off, and perhaps even the show's future.

During the panel, the team revealed the very first trailer for Reacher Season 4, which you can find below. Once again, Jack Reacher gets pulled into an all-new world of hurt all because he tries to do the right thing. Of course, this means having to deal with more than a few unscrupulous characters, all of whom don't know who they're dealing with.

Will There Be a 'Reacher' Season 5?

With their 30 full-length novels to adapt and the show being one of Prime Video's most popular, you won't be surprised to learn that Reacher has already been picked up for Season 5, with Ritchson himself recently taking to social media to give fans an update. Officially confirming that cameras are now rolling on Season 5, Ritchson showed a clip of himself on his way to set, before Season 4 of the series has even debuted on August 12. It is expected that this fifth season will arrive sometime before the end of next year.

Check out the first three seasons of Reacher on Prime Video and stay tuned to Collider for more of the latest San Diego Comic-Con 2026 coverage.
