Jack’s back, and they don’t mean the Jack in the Box guy, or that dude from “24.” They mean Jack Flippin’ Ryan, Tom Clancy’s nerd hero for a modern age of espionage. Previously played by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck in a series of badass spy movies that each hold up perfectly well many years later. That Jack is indeed back in the prequel Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, the new action thriller from director Kenneth Branagh (Hamlet), and starring Chris Pine (People Like Us) in the title role.
But why go back to the character’s origins at all? That’s the question Branagh, Pine and co-star Keira Knightley are answering in this CraveOnline Exclusive clip from the special features of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, now available on Digital HD. The DVD and Blu-ray Combo Pack hits stores on June 10. Enjoy!
