Chris Pratt trades comic timing for controlled fury in The Terminal List, a 2022 military thriller series built around one question: who set up an entire Navy SEAL platoon to die.

What is The Terminal List about?

James Reece comes home from a covert mission as the only survivor of his unit, and the official account of what happened does not match his own memory of it. As he starts pulling threads, medical records, chain-of-command decisions, and a defense contractor's fingerprints all start pointing somewhere uncomfortable. Chris Pratt plays Reece with a stillness that trades his usual charm for something colder, while Constance Wu, Riley Keough, and Jeanne Tripplehorn fill out a cast pulled between loyalty, liability, and the truth. Taylor Kitsch appears as a fellow operator whose own war record complicates the picture. The show runs at a deliberate pace across its eight episodes, more procedural unraveling than shootout showcase, though it doesn't shy from violence when the plot calls for it. Directors Robert Levine and Jonathan E. Steinberg keep the tone grounded, closer to a conspiracy drama than a typical special-ops actioner.

About the cast

Chris Pratt anchors the series as Reece, working against type in a role that asks for restraint rather than one-liners. Constance Wu and Jeanne Tripplehorn play two of the people orbiting his investigation from very different angles, while Riley Keough and Taylor Kitsch round out a supporting cast that gives the show its texture beyond the lead performance.

Context & significance

The Terminal List arrived in 2022 as part of a wave of prestige military thrillers built around a single wronged soldier working outside the system. Its United States production draws on the tropes of that genre, favoring procedural detail, chain-of-command paranoia, and a slow-burn structure over pure spectacle, which sets it apart from more conventional action fare in the same space.
