Alan Ritchson and Jason Statham's 141-Minute Action Thriller Becomes a Global Streaming Hit

Few movie stars have had as busy a year as Alan Ritchson, who has starred in huge movies and TV shows both in theaters and on streaming. Ritchson opened the year by starring in War Machine, the Netflix sci-fi thriller that earned over 135 million views. That is enough to be crowned one of the top 10 most-watched Netflix movies of all time, and a sequel to War Machine is officially on the way. Later in the year, Ritchson also returned to his star-making role as Reacher in the Prime Video series of the same name. Prime Video is also so confident that the show will continue to be a hit that Reacher has not only been renewed for Season 5, but also Season 6. There is no word yet on a potential return date, but the show is expected to be back next year.

War Machine may have been the most-watched movie of 2026 for Alan Ritchson, but back in 2023, that title belonged to Fast X. Ritchson made his debut as Agent Aimes in the legendary action franchise, starring alongside other franchise titans like Vin Diesel and John Cena. The film grossed over $700 million at the global box office, which would have been more impressive if it hadn't cost $340 million to make. Still, Fast X, which also features the return of Jason Statham's Deckard Shaw, has recently found a home streaming on Peacock in America. Globally, the film has bounced around on various platforms, but it has been in the top 10 for over 300 days in 2026, making it one of the most-watched movies of the entire year on VOD and on streaming.

Here's What We Know About 'Fast Forever'

Universal officially announced Fast Forever as the eleventh and final Fast & Furious movie earlier this year. The movie is currently scheduled to be released on March 17, 2028, but it isn't scheduled to begin production until the end of this year, so it is subject to being delayed. Louis Leterrier has been tapped to direct with a script from Christina Hodson, Michael Lesslie, and Oren Uziel, and franchise veterans such as Jason Statham and Dwayne Johnson are expected back as Deckard Shaw and Luke Hobbs. It has yet to be confirmed whether Alan Ritchson's Agent Aimes will be part of the film.
