Chris Pratt Says 17 Veterans Helped Drive Terminal List Season 2 Debut

Prime premiered season 2 of “The Terminal List” on Oct. 21, with Chris Pratt pitching the new run as an international espionage thriller rather than season 1’s revenge-driven psychological story.
Pratt said the franchise connected because it served an “underserved” audience looking for “unapologetic, patriotic” action, which he argued helped make the first season a hit.
17 veterans work on the production, Pratt said, including two or three special operators as executive producers, giving the combat tactics, jargon and behavior an authenticity veterans recognize.
The series is based on Jack Carr’s Navy SEAL novels, and Pratt said that real former SEALs on set shaped a more credible portrayal of military action as the show expands globally in season 2.
