Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan: Ghost War pulls its protagonist back into the covert world against his will, only for him to discover the enemy is not a foreign power but a rogue black-ops unit operating in the shadows. Alongside CIA colleagues Mike November and James Greer and MI6 officer Emma Marlowe, Ryan races to unravel a conspiracy that is as personal as it is geopolitical — tradecraft, fractured alliances, and a ticking clock driving every move.
Jack Ryan: Ghost War is a 2026 American political action thriller film directed by Andrew Bernstein and written by Aaron Rabin and John Krasinski, based on a story by Krasinski and Noah Oppenheim. It is the sixth film and third reboot in the Jack Ryan series. Produced by Paramount Pictures and Sunday Night Productions and distributed by Amazon MGM Studios, it is based on characters from the fictional Ryanverse created by Tom Clancy and a continuation of the Amazon Prime Video television series Jack Ryan (2018–2023). The film stars Krasinski reprising his role as Jack Ryan, alongside Wendell Pierce, Michael Kelly, Max Beesley, JJ Feild, Douglas Hodge, with Betty Gabriel and Sienna Miller.
