Summary

Today, Jack is joined by Chris Pratt, who stars as James Reece in The Terminal List. In this episode, Chris and Jack talk Dark Wolf, True Believer, and the moments shaping what comes next in The Terminal List universe. They reflect on favorite scenes from Dark Wolf, the scale and authenticity of the production, and how the series moves from the battlefield into the gray world of intelligence and global spycraft. They also explore the differences between James Reece, Ben Edwards, and Raife Hastings, touching on loyalty, family, pain, discipline, and purpose. Along the way, they discuss Once an Eagle, on-set improvisation, filming in South Africa, the strength of an international cast, and the influences of The Punisher, Mack Bolan, Bond, and Zero Dark Thirty. Chris shares what it was like stepping back into the role of James Reece, what drew him to the character in the first place, and where the story could go next. This is a companion podcast to The Terminal List: Dark Wolf on Prime Video, taking listeners deeper into the story, characters, and creative process behind the series.
