Clark aka John Terrence Kelly, is an ex-Navy Seal-turned-operations officer for the CIA. He has been described by his creator as "Ryan's dark side" and "more inclined to take physical action than Jack is". He was first introduced in the 1988 novel "The Cardinal of the Kremlin".
On the big screen, Clark has been portrayed by Willem Dafoe in "Clear and Present Danger" (1994) and Liev Schreiber in "The Sum of All Fears" (2002).
Clancy's classic Jack Ryan was recently played by actor John Krasinski in Amazon's hit series of the same name.
Jordan is also producing the project alongside Akiva Goldsman, Josh Appelbaum and Corin Nemec.
