Jack Ryan Season 2 Cast

Jack Ryan Season 2 has been going full steam ahead in adding to its cast.

Michael Kelly (House of Cards) will be joining Jack Ryan Season 2. Kelly will play Mike November, a smart, seasoned CIA lifer and field officer who will work with Jack. Can’t wait to see how he’ll betray our hero! That’s not based on any inside info other than understanding Kelly’s acting archetype.

Other cast additions include: Jovan Adepo (The Leftovers), Jordi Molla (Genius), Cristina Umaña (Narcos), and Francisco Denis. According to Deadline, Adepo will play Marcus, a former special crewman in the Navy now repairing boats whose life takes a turn when an old colleague offers him a critical position in a covert operation; Molla will play Nicolas Reyes, the powerful and charismatic leader of a South American Country; Umaña will play Gloria Bonalde, a woman who fearlessly balances her career in politics with the demands of motherhood; and Denis will play Ubarri, a senior government official in a South American country.

Wendell Pierce (Unsolved, Selma, The Wire), who plays Jack’s boss, James Greer, in Season 1, is confirmed for a return in Season 2.

Wlaschiha, an East Germany-born actor, is, of course, best known as the enigmatic Faceless Man assassin Jaqen H’ghar on Game of Thrones. While most of his resume consists of German films and TV shows, he did field a three-season 2013-2015 co-starring run on an internationally distributed crime series, called Crossing Lines, opposite Donald Sutherland and William Fichtner. Interestingly, Wlaschiha had U.S. TV prospects charted last year when he was set to star in a TNT pilot, a dark urban drama called The Deep Mad Dark, which was subsequently pulled by the network.
