The untitled ‘The Terminal List’ prequel series is in development at Amazon Prime Video. A spy thriller, the narrative will revolve around Taylor Kitsch’s character Ben Edwards, who is a former friend of Pratt’s James Reece in ‘The Terminal List,’ chronicling his life journey from a Navy SEAL to a paramilitary operator for the CIA, depicting how he got involved in the conspiracy that viewers were subjected to in Season 1. We will get to see Reece in the series due to his history with Edwards. Executive producer and co-director Antoine Fuqua himself has confirmed Pratt’s appearance in the sequel during an interview with Collider. He stated, “Oh, yeah. I love it, man. That’s what I wanna do is I’ll direct probably one or two that Chris is in, you know, because it’s the prequel with Taylor [Kitsch] as well.”
