He's faced nuclear weapons, he's faced biological attacks, and he's faced awkward romantic encounters, but Jack Ryan season 4 brings one new challenge to the titular analyst-turned-CIA officer: the CIA itself. The first few episodes of this final season of the popular spy show are streaming now.

Based on the works of Tom Clancy, and following many movie adaptations, Jack Ryan puts The Office star Krasinski in the boots of terrorist-fighter Jack Ryan as he's plucked from his CIA desk job and dropped into the field to protect his country and thwart baddies.

Fans can already check out our Jack Ryan season 4 episode 1 recap if you've already seen the episode, and we'd recommend it, because there's a lot to sink your teeth into!

Season 4 of Jack Ryan puts the secret agent — sorry, officer, as he likes to be called — in a precarious position as he's tasked with uncovering corruption in his own team. We'll meet returning faces like Wendell Pierce as Jack's boss Greer and Abbie Cornish as his love interest Cathy, reprising her role from the first season, but will enjoy the addition of Michael Peña as Ryan's sidekick Ding to provide some comic relief.  This has been confirmed to be the last season of the show, so your last chance to enjoy Krasinski's version of the character.

Whether you've been enjoying this action-packed spy show or are interested in diving in for the first time, here's how to watch Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan season 4 online.

How to watch Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan season 4

You'll only be able to watch Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan season 4 using a streaming service, as it won't be airing on TV. The streamer in question is Amazon's Prime Video, as the show is an Amazon exclusive.

You can watch on Prime Video if you're an Amazon Prime subscriber, as the company's streaming service is one of the many perks available to subscribers. Prime costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year in the US, and £8.99 per month or £95 per year in the UK, though in the US you can instead opt for a Prime Video-only plan for $8.99 per month, which doesn't get you the other bonuses of Prime.

Prime Video also includes the first three seasons of Jack Ryan a well as Without Remorse, another movie set in the 'Ryanverse' starring Michael B. Jordan as John Clark who is Ryan's associate in the novels. More adaptations of Jack Ryan novels are expected on Prime in the future too, just not John Krasinksi-starring ones, as this is his version of the character's last hurrah.
