Based on author Vince Flynn's eleventh Mitch Rapp novel that charts the origin of CIA agent Rapp. Long before he began hunting terrorists, Rapp was a gifted college scholar/athlete. Then, tragedy struck and Rapp was recruited into the nation’s most elite covert operations program. After completing training designed to teach the kind of lethal skills necessary to target our most dangerous enemies, here and abroad, he is a man reborn with a mission of retribution.
Jeffrey Nachmanoff took over as director from Ed Zwick who had a schedule conflict with the Henry Cavill--starring film "The Great Wall"
Mike Finch takes over script duties from Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz.

CBS Films won the rights to the Rapp novels back in 2008 and originally planned to begin the series with an adaptation of "Consent to Kill" that Antoine Fuqua was to direct Gerard Butler, Colin Farrell and Matthew Fox were all on the list to potentially play CIA agent Rapp.
