Amazon Prime Releases New 'Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan' Trailer
This is one of the series I am most eagerly awaiting: Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan. The CIA Analyst character is extremely popular, having appeared in 11 novels, five films, and three video games. He is being played by John Krasinski, who picks up the role from previous actors Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine. While the five films (Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, Sum of All Fear, and Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit) adapted the novels, the new series is an original story featuring Ryan.
Amazon has released a new trailer, key art, and description for the series.

The series is a reinvention with a modern sensibility of the unexpected Tom Clancy hero. It centers on Jack Ryan, an up-and-coming CIA analyst thrust into a dangerous field assignment for the first time.
