What can we expect from the fourth and final season of Jack Ryan?

The production of Jack Ryan season 4 commenced in February 2022 with the crew seen filming in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Since the previous seasons took around a year and a half to arrive on Prime Video, the last season is expected to be released in mid to late 2023.

Season 3 had Ryan averting a war between Russia and the United States, while his companions James Greer and Mike November worked from within the Kremlin to prevent a Russian government coup. Ryan uncovered a 50-year-old Russian scheme involving a reactivated nuclear weapon dubbed Sokol and fled the CIA. But, in the end, he earns the trust of his friends and saves the world from a conflict between his country and Russia.

It has been speculated that Cathy Mueller (Abbie Cornish), Jack's love interest from Season 1, may return for the final season. Season 4 may share similarities with Tom Clancy's novel The Hunt For Red, as it did in season 3.

However, with 21 books available, it's difficult to predict which one will serve as the foundation for Season 4. We see Jack and Cathy get married in the books. Therefore, there is a very good chance that the show will have a happy ending.

Finally, Ding Chavez (Michael Pea), who will soon have his own spinoff series, will reunite with Jack. The fate of beloved characters, namely, Greer and Mike remain a mystery.
