Neagley spin-off premieres on Prime Video

The Reacher spin-off series, Neagley, premiered on Prime Video on September 16, 2026, featuring Maria Sten as Frances Neagley. The first season consists of eight episodes released simultaneously. The plot follows Neagley, a former member of the 110th Special Investigators, as she investigates the suspicious death of a close friend, leading her into a conspiracy involving a sect and the community of Echo Canyon.

Critical reception has been largely positive, with some aggregators noting high scores such as 92% on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have highlighted the show's shift from the high-octane physical action of the original Reacher series toward a more cerebral, intimate, and character-driven investigative style. The series has also seen significant viewership success, reaching the top of Prime Video charts in several countries, including the US, Canada, Australia, Germany, and Turkey.

Fans have noted potential continuity links to Lee Child’s novel Tripwire, suggested by a reference to St. Louis in the season finale. Additionally, the series explores deeper character nuances, such as Neagley’s struggle with haptophobia, an intense fear of physical contact.
