Taylor Kitsch's narrative journey as Ben Edwards in Prime Video's "The Terminal List: Dark Wolf" unfurls from the grueling realm of Navy SEAL operations to the covert corridors of the CIA's Special Operations division, as teased in the trailer. Chris Pratt returns to his role as James Reece, joined by an ensemble cast featuring Tom Hooper, Luke Hemsworth, Robert Wisdom, and Dar Salim, alongside Rona-Lee Shimon, Shiraz Tzarfati, and Jared Shaw. Wisdom, embodying Jed Haverford, offers a poignant reminder in the trailer, "Men like us – guardians, shields, watchdogs – we're either in the trench, or our minds are on the battlefield."
This prequel is a collaborative endeavor between "The Terminal List" author Jack Carr, himself a former Navy SEAL, and season one showrunner David DiGilio. As an espionage thriller, it delves into the shadowy underbelly of warfare through the lens of muscular, enigmatic CIA agents.
On August 27th, the first three episodes of "Dark Wolf" will make their global debut on Prime Video in over 240 countries, with subsequent installments dropping weekly until the season's climactic finale on September 24th. The series boasts executive producers including Kitsch, Pratt, DiGilio, Carr, Antoine Fuqua, Kat Samick, Max Adams, Jared Shaw, and pilot director Frederick E.O. Toye.
Produced by Amazon MGM Studios, MRC, and Civic Center Media, "Dark Wolf" builds upon the foundation laid by the original "The Terminal List" series, which centered on James Reece (Pratt) after his Navy SEAL platoon was ambushed in a high-stakes covert mission. Reece returns home to his family, haunted by conflicting recollections of the event and scrutinized for his role. As fresh evidence surfaces, Reece uncovers sinister forces conspiring against him, jeopardizing not just his life but also those he holds dear.
The original "The Terminal List" thriller also starred Constance Wu, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Kitsch, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Riley Keough, and Jai Courtney. Amazon's "The Terminal List" was a co-production between Amazon Studios and Civic Center Media, in partnership with MRC Television, captivating audiences with its blend of intrigue and action.
