      i've not seen the reacher series just read the books. He very much is not. In the books he is not on steroids, not typical Hollywood look -- he is very good at blending in and very smart. Should be a dark intense character, not this guy at all. Just how I feel about it -- I kind of get too distracted bc it just feels like a different thing entirely than Reacher

    I think one of the reasons why I (and probably a lot of other Reacher's fans) love the character so much is because he is living the life we love to have and does what we cannot (you know, physically) do. Also, he has the moral compass the world needs.

    I read so many Reacher books when I was on deployment and had a picture of him in my head (along the lines of Dolph Lundgren). We had a giant Marine on my ship who looked the part, so my vision of the Reacher character was set in stone. I was so upset when I heard that Tom Cruise was playing him, but gave it a chance in theaters. Although Tom was a brilliant actor in the role, his frame just couldn't fill it, and I thought that the movies would have done better with another more accurate Reacher. Nobody could take small guy Cruise intimidating stone cold killers just from entering a room serious. Seeing Ritchson literally fill that role and blowing up the series like Reacher blows up bad guys fills my heart with joy, knowing that the audience who couldn't take the time to read the series can now see what I saw during those long nights on deployment. With all the things that go wrong in this world, seeing Alan Ritchson beating down small town bad guys while avoiding laundry makes everything seem right.

      Fun Fact: He auditioned for Thor and although the casting directors really wanted him for the role due to his physicality and looks, they were very honest and even told him they wouldn't take him as he didn't have the talent back then.
      Upon hearing that, he immediately went and got more acting classes
      There's a very interesting interview about his Hollywood Rejections, very modest guy

    As a huge fan of the REACHER novels, I literally LOL's when they announced Tom was going to be Reacher. Saw both films and I must say - Tom really did nail down the attitude of Reacher. That being said - Alan HAD to be cast as Reacher. He also has nailed down the character as well as of course literally fits the stature. Im so glad they found Alan and I am SO pining for Friday (that's when the next episode is being released in my area.)
