‘The Terminal List’ Season 2 sets release date as Chris Pratt returns in explosive trailer
Chris Pratt returns as Navy SEAL Commander James Reece in the first trailer for 'The Terminal List' Season 2. The new season will premiere on Wednesday, October 21, with all eight episodes arriving at once. The series is based on Jack Carr’s bestselling novels, with Season 2 drawing from the author’s second book, 'True Believer.'
The story picks up after Reece completes his revenge mission from Season 1 and begins searching for a new purpose. In the new season, as we can see in the trailer, Reece travels across the Indian Ocean, Southern and Northern Africa, the Middle East, and Europe.
The case also has a personal connection to Reece’s family history. Tom Hopper returns as Raife Hastings, while Constance Wu reprises her role as Katie Buranek. Dar Salim is also back as Mohammed Farooq, with Luke Hemsworth returning as Jules Landry. Gabriel Luna joins the second season as Freddy Strain. The new cast also includes Costa Ronin, Olga Kurylenko, Yul Vazquez, Martin Sensmeier, Arnold Vosloo, Jeremy Bobb and Shiraz Tzarfati.
Pratt is known for playing Peter Quill in Marvel’s ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ films and appearing in ‘Avengers: Infinity War,’ ‘Avengers: Endgame’ and ‘Thor: Love and Thunder.’ He also starred as Owen Grady in the ‘Jurassic World’ trilogy and led the action film ‘The Tomorrow War.’ His other credits include ‘Moneyball,’ ‘Zero Dark Thirty,’ ‘The Kid,’ and ‘The Report.’
On television, he became widely known for playing Andy Dwyer in ‘Parks and Recreation’ before taking on the role of Reece in ‘The Terminal List.’ Chris Pratt has described the second season as a tribute to the special operations community. He said the production aimed to honor people who work in secrecy and make major personal sacrifices.
Season 1 of ‘The Terminal List’ ended with James Reece completing his mission of revenge. Reece discovered that a conspiracy within the military and government had caused the deaths of his SEAL team. The conspiracy centered on RD-4895, a drug that caused brain tumors in soldiers who received it. Reece hunted down the people responsible, including Secretary of Defense Lorraine Hartley.
He then confronted Hartley at her home and forced her to reveal her role in the cover-up. Reece killed her before escaping. The season finale left Reece with few people he could trust. Ben Edwards, his closest friend, had secretly helped create the plan that exposed the SEALs to the drug. Reece later confronted Ben and killed him. After completing his list, Reece disappeared from the United States.
