Prime Video, according to a statement from the company, also confirmed that ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ will return with Season 3 on November 11, 2026. The new season is set several years after the events of Season 2 and unfolds during the War of the Elves, as Sauron continues consolidating power in Middle-earth.
Action drama ‘Reacher’ has been renewed for a fifth season ahead of the launch of Season 4. Based on Lee Child’s novels, the series stars Alan Ritchson in the title role of Jack Reacher, with Maria Sten also returning as Frances Neagley.
