Amazon is making big moves for Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, a small screen adaptation of the popular book and film series. They’re running a spot during the Superbowl this Sunday but the ad has launched early for us all to see.
In the eight-episode Amazon series co-produced with Paramount TV and Skydance TV, John Krasinski plays a younger version of CIA operative Jack Ryan and follows in the footsteps of such actors as Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck and Chris Pine who’ve portrayed the character on the big screen to varying degrees of success. As a burgeoning agency analyst on the Amazon series, this Ryan uncovers a pattern in terrorist communication that launches him into the center of a dangerous gambit with a new breed of terrorism that threatens destruction on a global scale.
Abbie Cornish, The Wire vet Wendell Pierce, Ali Suliman, Dina Shihabi and Emmanuelle Lussier Martinez co-star on Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan with Krasinski.
