The upcoming second season has been described as following Ryan as he confronts `` the forces in power in a dangerous, declining democratic regime in South America. '' Cast and characters Main John Krasinski as Jack Ryan, a former Marine and a financial analyst working for the Central Intelligence Agency, specifically the Terror, Finance, and Arms Division ( T - FAD ), which is part of the Counterterrorism Center ( CTC ). Krasinski 's interpretation of the character is said to be inspired by Harrison Ford 's portrayal in Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger. Director and executive producer Daniel Sackheim said : `` What was so great about the Harrison Ford movies was that they were about an everyman hero. He was a guy who was n't a superhero. He was heroic, but he was vulnerable. He was n't afraid to be scared. He was a regular man and a hero. '' Abbie Cornish as Cathy Mueller, a doctor specializing in infectious diseases, and Ryan 's girlfriend Wendell Pierce as James Greer, Ryan 's boss in T - FAD.

Jack meets medical doctor Cathy Mueller at a social function before he is collected by helicopter and then taken via a plane to Yemen by James Greer, his new boss in the Terror, Finance, and Arms Division ( T - FAD ) of the CIA. The man seemingly responsible for the payments and his assumed bodyguard are being interrogated when the American base is attacked by rebels / militia. The attackers then rescue the bodyguard, who an injured Jack then realizes is Suleiman. `` French Connection '' Daniel Sackheim Carlton Cuse & Graham Roland August 31, 2018 ( 2018 - 08 - 31 ) Jack reconnects with Cathy, and Suleiman 's wife Hanin is concerned about the armed terrorists he has brought to their home. Jack and Greer figure out that their target is Mousa Bin Suleiman, a French national. His phone records lead them to an apartment outside of Paris, where Suleiman 's brother Ali is transferring funds. Jack and Greer accompany French intelligence in their raid, but an injured Ali manages to escape in the middle of the ensuing shootout, which ends in a suicide bombing. `` Black 22 '' Patricia Riggen Carlton Cuse & Graham Roland August 31, 2018 ( 2018 - 08 - 31 ) In pursuit of Ali, Jack and Greer learn that he is traveling to a rendezvous point in southern France.

In the aftermath of the Paris church attack, Jack manages to make contact with Suleiman using the messaging board on a video game, posing as Ali. Suleiman detects the ruse, but Jack confirms that Hanin has indeed left her husband, and tells Suleiman that Ali is dead. Jack and Greer proceed to Turkey to extract Hanin and the girls, but she has paid someone to smuggle them from the camp to the coast. 6 `` Sources and Methods '' Carlton Cuse Story by : Patrick Aison Teleplay by : Patrick Aison & Annie Jacobsen August 31, 2018 ( 2018 - 08 - 31 ) Jack and Greer, with aid from a Turkish sex trafficker, track Hanin and her daughters to the Turkish coast, where they dispatch Suleiman 's henchman who has been pursuing the women. Greer reveals that he was PNG 'd from Karachi because he had killed his asset, a Pakistani army officer, who was going to turn him in to the authorities to be tortured and killed. Meanwhile, Victor learns that one of his `` terrorist '' targets had been misidentified, and travels to Syria to make amends with the family. Cathy investigates a man infected with a strain of the Ebola virus thought eradicated.

Jack and Greer try to convince their superiors to settle on a covert ground assault to do the former, as well as extracting Hanin 's son, Samir. The CIA has learned about the hostage doctors, and US President Pickett approves the mission. JSOC forces storm the compound but find no sign of Suleiman ; instead, they locate and rescue the physicians. As one of them, Dr. Daniel Nadler, is welcomed by his longtime friend Pickett, Jack and Greer realize that the doctors have been intentionally infected with the Ebola virus. 8 `` Inshallah '' Daniel Sackheim Carlton Cuse & Graham Roland August 31, 2018 ( 2018 - 08 - 31 ) Pickett, as well as other high - ranking government officials, are quarantined for exposure to Ebola. Suleiman arrives in the US with Samir to carry out another attack, this time a release of cesium into the ventilation system of Washington Memorial Hospital, where Pickett is being confined. Jack and Greer warn the Secret Service, and Jack chases Suleiman to a nearby train station and kills him before he can activate the device remotely. Jack and Greer later return Samir to Hanin. For stopping the terrorist attack, Greer is promoted to deputy station chief in Moscow, and Jack replaces him as head of T - FAD. Production Development On September 22, 2015, it was announced that Carlton Cuse and Graham Roland were developing a television series adaptation of Tom Clancy 's Jack Ryan series of novels.

On January 30, 2018, the Super Bowl trailer for the series was released online, five days before the football event and marking the first time that Prime Video has released a Super Bowl ad for one of its original shows. In a statement, Amazon Studios ' head of marketing Mike Benson said, `` Given the colossal scope and scale of the series coupled with the popularity of Tom Clancy 's novels, we knew Tom Clancy 's Jack Ryan would be a natural fit for Prime Video 's first Super Bowl ad. The global nature of the audience provides us with a unique opportunity to give viewers a look at this thrilling new series coming to Prime. '' It also announced the show 's release date for August 31. On June 11, 2018, the official trailer for the series was released. On July 4, 2018, a trailer entitled `` Presidents '', featuring quotes from U.S. Presidents Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and John F. Kennedy, was released in tandem with U.S. Independence Day. Premiere On June 16, 2018, the series held its world premiere at the 58th Annual Monte - Carlo Television Festival at the Grimaldi Forum in Monte Carlo, Monaco. The event included a screening of the series ' pilot episode that was attended by cast members John Krasinski, Dina Shihabi and Wendell Pierce, alongside series creators, showrunners and executive producers Carlton Cuse and Graham Roland. Reception The series has been met with a positive critical response upon its premiere. On the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds an approval rating of 74 % with an average rating of 6.22 out of 10, based on 73 reviews. The website 's critical consensus reads, `` Though not as thematically rich as some of its geopolitical predecessors, Jack Ryan is a satisfying addition to the genre buoyed by exceptional action sequences and a likable cast. '' Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the series a score of 66 out of 100 based on 28 critics, indicating `` generally favorable reviews ''. In a positive review, RogerEbert.com 's Nick Allen praised the series saying, `` Expertly plotted by creators Carlton Cuse and Graham Roland, Tom Clancy 's Jack Ryan is all the more impactful for its restraint and scope, offering excellent character - based drama that 's concerned with much more than just its namesake. '' Similarly favorable, The Gazette 's Terry Terrones awarded the series a grade of `` A − '' and directed specific approval towards Krasinski 's performance saying, `` This version of Jack Ryan is relatable, but also admirable because the actor portraying him can balance so many aspects of the character with ease. Krasinski plays him so naturally I could n't tell where he ended and Ryan began. '' In another enthusiastic appraisal, Rolling Stone 's Alan Sepinwall accorded the series three and a half stars out of five and complimented it saying, `` Like Jack Ryan himself, the Amazon show is smart and confident and thorough. That 's enough to get the job done. '' In a more mixed assessment, TVLine 's Dave Nemetz gave the series a grade of `` C + '' and offered the series restrained commendation saying, `` Amazon 's awkwardly titled Tom Clancy 's Jack Ryan is at its best when things are exploding, delivering a number of impressively high - octane action sequences on a scale rarely seen on television. The rest of the series, though, is disappointingly mediocre... and its choice of leading man may be a major stumbling block. '' In a negative critique, Vanity Fair 's Sonia Saraiya chastised the show saying `` Tom Clancy 's Jack Ryan is hysterical. Hysterical as in histrionic ; hysterical as in somehow funny ; hysterical as in you wish its team had worked harder to take the temperature of the world around us before sending this highly charged and obscenely blinkered James Bond manqué into the world. '' Equally dismissive, Paste 's Amy Amatangelo criticized the series saying, `` But more often than not, the show plods along with no real sense of urgency. I often had to restrain myself from scrolling through my phone. I was that bored while I was watching. Those indoctrinated into the Jack Ryan canon via the books or the movies will find the eight - episode series is faithful to the spirit of all that preceded it. I 'm just not sure we needed it at all. '' The series has been criticized for a scene in the episode `` Black 22 '' that features the use of a transphobic slur and, as alleged by LGBT activist Eliel Cruz, treats a major cause of violence against trans women as `` a throwaway joke. '' Similarly, the series has also received criticism in French publications for its depiction of the country, specifically in the episodes `` French Connection '' and `` Black 22 '', where various scenes have been condemned. Stéphanie Guerrin of Le Parisien expressed her concern for the dialogue spoken by and about the French saying, `` This series of dangerously caricatural comments leaves one wondering. '' Le Point 's Bastien Haugel specifically took grievance, in an otherwise positive review, with the portrayal of a French policeman who espoused anti-Muslim views calling it a `` dangerously caricatural ''.
