Where is Reacher Season 2 filmed? All filming locations

Alan Ritchson as Jack Reacher in Reacher

Reacher Season 2 sees Jack Reacher go on action-packed adventures from Arkansas to New York. But where was the Prime Video series’ second season actually filmed?

While Reacher Season 1 took place primarily in Margrave, Georgia, Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) did occasionally ventured outside the town to places such as Atlanta, Georgia, and Memphis, Tennessee.

However, the series’ first season wasn’t actually filmed in Georgia – or anywhere else in the US, for that matter. Instead, all of Reacher Season 1’s studio and location shooting took place in Canada.

With the revelation, many have wondered if Reacher Season 2 was filmed in the same place, so here’s everything we know about where principal photography on Reacher Season 2 took place.

Reacher Season 2 filming locations

Reacher Season 2 was filmed on location in Ontario, Canada. This includes the province’s capital city, Toronto, which sported signage bearing the production’s working title, “Chimp,” throughout its September 2022 – February 2023 shoot.

Similar signs cropped up in another of Ontario’s cities, Brampton, as well. Filming happened in downtown Brampton for at least a week in early November 2022. This stretch of Reacher Season 2’s shoot was apparently confined to a single street, in a seemingly low-rise area.

Snaps of Ritchson and co-star Shaun Sipos at Toronto’s Hendricks Restaurant also surfaced online around the same time. What’s more, Ritchson later confirmed that at least some of Season 2 was filmed in nearby Hamilton. Asked by Cinemablend why Reacher doesn’t film in the US, the star replied that it boils down to the economics of it all.

“You want the real answer?” Ritchson said. “People want to know how the business works? It’s currency exchange. Tax credits. Rebates out the wahzoo in Toronto. You get an extra five percent if you’re in Hamilton!”

We’ll update this section with more Reacher Season 2 filming locations as they’re made available.

How does Reacher Season 2 tie into Season 1?

Given both seasons of Reacher were filmed in the same area, you might be wondering how much narrative overlap exists between Seasons 1 and 2. Does the show’s second batch of episodes include a return to Margrave? In short: no.

Much like the Lee Child novel it’s based on, Bad Luck and Trouble, Reacher Season 2 has few ties to the events in Margrave. Indeed, the only major shoutouts to Season 1 are the return of Maria Sten’s Frances Neagley and a one-episode guest appearance by Malcolm Goodwin’s Oscar Finlay.

Don’t expect an appearance by Reacher’s Season 1 love interest, Roscoe Conklin, either. Roscoe doesn’t return in Season 2 – a development actor Willa Fitzgerald confirmed before Season 2’s release.

Reacher Season 2 Episodes 1-8 are streaming now on Prime Video, which you can sign up for here.
