Per reports, the upcoming season will see Jack "embroiled in a false, large conspiracy who suddenly finds himself a fugitive out in the cold, on the run, and in a race against time."
The series will chronicle his efforts to stay underground, maintain a low-profile, avoid a global conflict, and stay away from the CIA, which is on a hunt to track him down.
