Amazon recently announced it’s developing aJack Ryanmovie connected to the Prime Video show, but it must avoid one crucial mistake that hurt the show’s middle seasons. John Krasinski who starred as the show’s titular CIA Analyst, will be thefourth actor to play Jack Ryan in a film, following in the steps of Alec Baldwin, Ben Affleck, and Harrison Ford. For Amazon’s upcoming film,it’s already been confirmed that Krasinski will be returning as well as Wendell Piercewho portrays James Greer. Michael Kelly is also in talks to reprise his role as Mike November in the film.

Jack Ryanseason 1 established much of Jack’s life from the original Tom Clancy novels and this included a relationship with Cathy Mueller.Cathy’s presence inJack Ryanseason 1 was fantastic, as her job as a research epidemiologist tied directly into the main plot for the final episodes. At the end ofJack Ryanseason 1, it seemed like Jack and Cathy’s relationship would be strong going into season 2, but Cathy was missing from bothJack Ryanseasons 2 and 3.Cathy returned forJack Ryanseason 4, andthe show ended with Cathy and Jack together.

Jack Ryan’s Movie Can’t Drop Abbie Cornish’s Cathy After Season 2’s Mistake

They Can’t Make the Same Mistake Twice

Jack Ryansuffered when Abbie Cornish’s Cathy Mueller wasn’t in the show. WhileJack Ryanseasons 2 and 3 were still good, so much of what made Jack grounded was missing. Audiences only saw Jack in a work environment, with little screen time dedicated to his life outside the CIA. If Amazon is going forth with thisJack Ryanmovie, they must bring back Cathy Mueller in a meaningful way. With only the announcement of Krasinski and Pierce’s return and the rumored return of Kelly,the next actor that Amazon should be trying to recruit is Abbie Cornish.

All 4 Seasons Of Jack Ryan, Ranked From Worst To Best

Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan had four seasons on Amazon’s Prime Video, but some of John Krasinski’s world-saving adventures were better than others.

When Cathy Mueller reappeared suddenly inJack Ryanseason 4, the first four episodes severely underutilized her. Despite this, it was great to see Abbie Cornish back alongside the otherJack Ryancast, and it was clear she was a great fit for the love interest of Jack Ryan. At the very end ofJackRyanseason 4,Jack had left the CIA, but CIA Director Wright had essentially left the door open for him to come back whenever he wanted.It seemed like Jack would be taking a bit of time off so that he could spend it with Cathy.

How Cathy Can Return After Jack Ryan Season 4’s Ending

It Wouldn’t Be Hard

Whiledetails about theJack Ryanmovie’s plot are sparse, it’s possible that Amazon could opt to adapt another one of Tom Clancy’s novels. Additionally, withJack Ryanseason 4 endingwith Jack taking time away from the CIA and being with Cathy, it doesn’t seem too hard to see how she might appear in the film. However, it also seemed that way afterJack Ryanseason 1, and then Cathy was absent for the subsequent two seasons.

It’s encouraging that a couple of main characters have already signed on for the film, but it’s essential that other cast members like Abbie Cornish and Michael Kelly also get on board.

It’s exciting news thatJack Ryanis continuing at Amazon, even if it’s notJack Ryanseason 5. It’s encouraging that two of the main characters have already signed on for the film, but it’s essential that other cast members like Abbie Cornish and Michael Kelly also get on board. If they don’t theJack Ryanmovie risks repeating past mistakes, which could spell doom for the film before it even premieres. Hopefully, audiences won’t have to wait long for an announcement that Cathy Mueller will be returning in theJack Ryanfilm.
