Reacher Spin-off Starring Maria Sten Ordered by Amazon MGM Studios

Amazon MGM Studios has officially granted a series order to the untitled Reacher spin-off, which will center around private investigator Frances Neagley, portrayed by Danish actress Maria Sten. Before starring in Reacher, Sten previously appeared in shows like Channel Zero: The Dream Door, Swamp Thing, and Big Sky.

“As Reacher continues to resonate with our global customers in a profound way, expanding on the storytelling and characters with a spinoff was an easy decision,” Amazon MGM executive Vernon Sanders said in a statement. “With Nick and Nicholas as well as our partners Skydance and CBS Studios, we’re confident this new chapter, starring the amazing Maria Sten, will not only honor the Reacher legacy but also bring fresh energy and excitement to new and longtime fans alike.”

What is the Reacher spin-off about?

The untitled Reacher spin-off is created and executive produced by Nick Santora, and Nicholas Wootton, based on Lee Child’s Jack Reacher novel series. Frances Neagley was first introduced as one of Jack Reacher’s former comrades in the Army’s 110th Special Investigations Unit. In the spin-off, she’ll be working as a private investigator in Chicago. Executive producers are Child, Don Granger, Lisa Kussner, David Ellison, Goldberg, and Matt Thunell. It is a production by Amazon MGM Studios, Skydance Television, and CBS Studios.

“When Frances Neagley learns that a beloved friend from her past has been killed in a suspicious accident, she becomes hell-bent on justice,” reads the synopsis. “Using everything she’s learned from Jack Reacher and her time as a member of the 110 Special Investigators, Neagley puts herself on a dangerous path to uncover a menacing evil.”
