Since you have enough space, why not add the two honorable mentions?

I would prefer to leave open spots for future Jack Ryan streaming series storylines (season long arcs) and any Domingo 'Ding' Chavez titles. Likely, both would offer a big star in the role, a significant storyline around the character and a more developed character. These would be far more interesting answer options.

@CyrilMartin I just watched the first two season, I like how the series freed from of time constraints of film is able to make the characters far more complex and developed. I don't like how they are changing some of the backstory details though of his chatacter.

I've watched only the first season it's quite entertaining. As you said the characters are well developed and yeah the backstory, their details, and some of the characters are pretty much unrelated or don't stick to their adaptation. The story and plot are just fantasy to build up the episodic tension.
