We're grateful to have been part of The Terminal List again. Season 2, based on Jack Carr's novel True Believer, finds Chris Pratt's James Reece searching for a new purpose after finishing his list. When the CIA corners him, he has to clear his name by stopping a resurgent terrorist group that has turned a former ally, Mo Farooq, to its cause. The story takes Reece across the Indian Ocean, Africa, the Middle East and Europe, and into a conspiracy that reaches from Moscow to Langley and back to his own family's history.
The Moviehawk in the mix
Our Moviehawk, a UH-60A Black Hawk, flew for the production. It's a real aircraft flown by real pilots, with no CGI stand-in, so the rotor wash, the dust and the speed the actors react to are all really there. When the helicopter banks in low and passes right over the camera, that energy comes through on screen, and it helps keep the pace of the season high.
Thank you to the crew
This one took a team. Thank you to Kevin LaRosa, who flew as pilot and aerial coordinator; Michael FitzMaurice, our aerial DP; Kenny Brown, owner of the Moviehawk; and Aaron Fitzgerald, Jared Slater, Alex Anduze, Alex Freidin, Sean Skalski, Phillip Pelletier, Stephen Scherba, Immortal Camera and the whole Moviehawk crew. We couldn't ask for a better group to fly with.
All eight episodes of The Terminal List Season 2 premiere October 21 on Prime Video.
