John Krasinski, who portrayed the title character in the popular Jack Ryan series on Amazon Prime, is returning for the film, which is presently in development. Fans who have seen Krasinski's portrayal of the legendary CIA analyst-turned-operative throughout four successful seasons will find this to be a thrilling continuation.
Andrew Bernstein, who has directed television series such as Foundation, Ozark, and The Outsider, will helm the film. As Season 2's executive producer and director, Bernstein has further expertise in the Jack Ryan universe.
The storyline for the movie is being written by Aaron Robin, who previously co-executive produced Jack Ryan Season 4.
