In an attempt to turn its iconic drama series Reacher into a franchise, streamer Prime Video is getting close to greenlighting its spinoff titled Neagley.

Sources, according to Deadline, say the spinoff "would centre on Frances Neagley, a corporate security professional and former military colleague of Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) in the Army’s 110th Special Investigations Unit. Ritchson is set to appear on the spinoff as a guest star, reprising his role as Reacher."

Based on Lee Child's The Killing Floor novel, Frances Neagley was introduced but doesn't appear in Reacher's first season. But Neagley plays a prominent role in the second season to emerge as Reacher's trusted aide.

Produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Skydance Television, Neagley will be executive produced by Reacher showrunner and executive producer Nick Santora and Nicholas Wootton (Prison Break), according to Deadline. Besides the two, Lee Child, Don Granger, and Lisa Kussner with David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Matt Thunell will serve as EPs for Skydance Television, with the oversight of Carolyn Harris, Kenny Madrid, and Niko Fernandez.
