Dark Wolf Podcast Episode 2
Chris Pratt
Jack is joined by Chris Pratt, who stars as James Reece in The Terminal List.
From Dark Wolf and True Believer to The Punisher, Mack Bolan, Bond, Zero Dark Thirty, on-set improvisation, and the strength of an international cast, Chris and Jack cover the characters, influences, and moments shaping the next chapter of The Terminal List universe.
In this conversation, Chris and Jack look back on Dark Wolf, reflecting on favorite moments from the episodes, the scenes that hit hardest, and the experience of building this world alongside a cast and crew committed to getting it right. They talk about the scale of the production, the authenticity behind the action, and how the series captures the transition from the battlefield to the gray space of intelligence and global spycraft.
They also discuss the differences between James Reece, Ben Edwards, and Raife Hastings, exploring how each man responds to loyalty, family, pain, discipline, and purpose. Where Reece lives by a code, Ben is more willing to push outside the lines, making him one of the most unpredictable characters in the story. Along the way, they touch on the meaning behind Once an Eagle and how that idea connects to the world of Dark Wolf and The Terminal List.
Chris also talks about what it was like to step back into the role of James Reece after time away, what drew him to the character in the first place, and how the role has evolved from Season One into what comes next. They discuss filming in South Africa, the responsibility that comes with leading a major production, and why the best sets are built on trust, professionalism, and respect for the crew.
Jack and Chris also touch on the future of the franchise, pivotal lines and turning points in the story, and where the world of James Reece, Ben Edwards, and Dark Wolf could go from here.
This is a companion podcast to The Terminal List: Dark Wolf on Prime Video, taking listeners deeper into the story, the characters, and the creative process behind the series.
