Following in the footsteps of Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine, John Krasinski's big year continues as he becomes the next iteration of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan.

The show, created for Amazon by Lost's Carlton Cuse and Graham Rolland, will see the CIA analyst forced out from behind his desk and into a deadly game across the Middle-East and Europe to try and stop a rising terrorist threat.

Amazon's track record is getting better and better, and they've given this a second season order before the first has been seen, so they obviously have a lot of faith in it.

Air Date: August 31
