This is the first time the Jack Ryan franchise is being turned into a series. But, there have already been five movies with four actors portraying the protagonist -- Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine. This a big pickup from Amazon as it looks to take on Netflix and make video streaming a major draw for a Prime subscription. Jack Ryan will be joining Amazon's already impressive lineup of shows that includes the likes of The Man in the High Castle, Transparent, and Hand of God. But, there's no word yet on when Jack Ryan will make its Prime Video debut.
