I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little intimidated, stepping into a role that 110 million people already have an idea as to who you are.' It's remarkable what he did and I think he opened the door for a lot more people to enjoy Jack Reacher because of his work. Who else could've pulled that off? I don't know. he still carried the weight of what this series represents. He brought even more eyes to this and despite his stature. And then you throw in Tom, who I can only express gratitude for what he did. 'It's one of the highest-selling book franchises of all time,' he said. Ritchson described the opportunity to step into the role as 'overwhelming' during an interview with Reel Talker earlier this year. Ritchson more than proved he has the action chops in Titans for a role like this, and though we'll miss the Hawk costume, it's nice to know he's still out there kicking butt in a new show after his untimely Titans exit. However, the true killer will soon find out that they messed with the wrong guy once Jack sets out on a ruthless path to prove his own innocence. He kind of has no choice in the matter once the cops arrest him for the crime, pointing to a plethora of incriminating evidence.

This latest adaptation of the book series penned by Lee Child takes the form of a television show (simply titled Reacher) that will premiere on Amazon Prime Video at the start of 2022.īased on Killing Floor (Child's first Jack Reacher novel published in 1997), the show follows the former military police investigator as he helps a small Georgia town solve its first murder case in two decades. One of the breakout cast members of Titans - where he played the vigilante known as Hawk - Ritchson takes over the character from none other than Tom Cruise, who played Reacher in a pair of movies released in 20, respectively. Jack Reacher is back and this time around, he's played by Alan Ritchson.
