Tom Clancy's iconic spy Jack Ryan has one more mission to complete, as Prime Video's Jack Ryan season 4 marks the end of the spy drama's run. And it's a quick turnaround for the series, as season 4 is set to premiere in summer 2023, about six months after Jack Ryan season 3 concluded.
The ending of Jack Ryan marks the end of an era for Prime Video, as the streaming service says goodbye to two of its most popular series: Ryan and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel season 5. Though to be sure, it still has a number of high-profile shows in its lineup, including The Boys, The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time.
But we're focusing on Jack Ryan here, so let's dive into everything that we know about Jack Ryan season 4.
Jack Ryan season 4 release date
Jack Ryan season 4, the final entry of the spy drama, is now playing on Prime Video. As of June 30, the first two episodes of the season are available to watch.
Consisting of six episodes, the remaining Jack Ryan season 4 episodes debut two at a time every Friday. That means the final episodes of Jack Ryan are going to be available to stream on July 14.
Jack Ryan season 4 plot
Season 3 saw Jack Ryan mistakenly being labeled a traitor as he tried to prevent World War III by stopping a decades-old Soviet conspiracy from wreaking havoc. With his ally Elizabeth Wright positioned as the new CIA director, she was able to convince others to trust Jack and bring him back into the fold and they successfully save the day.
Per the official synopsis for Jack Ryan season 4, that leads to a promotion for Jack. But after dealing with an external threat, he has to look in-house for his next mission:
"The fourth and final season of Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan finds the titular character on his most dangerous mission yet: facing an enemy both foreign and domestic. As the new CIA Acting Deputy Director, Jack Ryan is tasked with unearthing internal corruption, and in doing so, uncovers a series of suspicious black ops that could expose the vulnerability of the country. As Jack and the team investigate how deep the corruption runs, he discovers a far-worse reality — the convergence of a drug cartel with a terrorist organization — ultimately revealing a conspiracy much closer to home and testing our hero's belief in the system he has always fought to protect."
Jack Ryan season 4 episodes
Here are the official synopses for Jack Ryan season 4 episodes:
Jack Ryan season 4 episode 1, "Triage"
"Jack, given the task of cleaning up the CIA, makes the difficult decisions that have immediate consequences. A cartel operator moves in the shadows to organize and important meeting."
Jack Ryan season 4 episode 2, "Convergence"
"Jack digs deeper into Miller's dirty operations and learns more about Chavez. Back in Myanmar, Chao must navigate the tension in the compound to keep his family safe."
Jack Ryan season 4 cast
John Krasinski returns to bring Jack Ryan's run to a close. His time as the titular spy has probably been his biggest role outside of his run as Jim on The Office, though we have also seen him star in and develop the A Quiet Place franchise and make a cameo as Reed Richards in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (it's unknown if he is going to reprise that role in the MCU's upcoming Fantastic Four movie).
The rest of the Jack Ryan cast is once again going to feature Wendell Pierce (The Wire, Accused) as James Greer and Michael Kelly (House of Cards, Special Ops: Lioness) as Mike November, as well as Betty Gabriel (Get Out, Defending Jacob) as Elizabeth Wright. Abbie Cornish (Bright Star, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) is set to return as Cathy Mueller after not appearing in the series since season 1.
Among the new additions to Jack Ryan season 4 are Michael Peña (Ant-Man, Moonfall) as Domingo Chavez and Louis Ozawa (Hunters, Pachinko) as Chao Fah.
