In its first 13 days on Prime Video, "Neagley" has garnered a staggering 40 million viewers worldwide, ranking as the streamer's fourth most-watched debut of an original series and within the top 10 most-viewed seasons of any original series to date.

Notably, 52% of the show's audience comes from international viewers, with strong performances in the U.K., Germany, and Brazil.

"The global audience has embraced Frances Neagley as a force all her own," Amazon MGM Studios head of global TV Peter Friedlander stated in a statement. "Maria Sten's commanding and layered performance drives every episode, while Nick Santora and Nicholas Wootton have crafted a thrilling and compelling world." The series stars Maria Sten as Frances Neagley, who becomes determined to seek justice after learning about a friend's suspicious death.

The cast includes Greyston Holt, Adeline Rudolph, Jasper Jones, Matthew Del Negro, Damon Herriman, and guest star Alan Ritchson as Jack Reacher from "Reacher." Produced by Paramount Television Studios and Amazon MGM Studios, "Neagley" is based on Lee Child's novels and is co-created and co-written by Santora, Wootton, and Child.
