Looking forward to it. Thanks for the heads up.

Okay, I was upset when I heard it wasn’t going to be Tom Cruise but this looks even better, so I’m in! I am sure my wife will also be watching.

Anyone who read the Lee Child series knew Tom Cruise was not a good match. Cruise is only 5'7". Reacher was 6'5" in the books. At least Alan Ritchson is 6'2".

OP, thanks for the heads-up.
I'm a huge Jack Reacher fan, have all the books, read them all (in order) multiple times.

The trailer you posted looks like the actor will capture the flavor of the books.

The Cruise movies were good……..if you had never read any of the books.

This looks promising. He’s still a little too pretty and a little too young for the character in my opinion. But I’m encouraged.

I would like to see this new one, never bothered with the Tom Cruise take on Reacher.

Agreed, I was fine with Cruise as Reacher and thought he did a passable job. I think this guy has just the right frame and features to fit as Reacher. Although, like UB he might be a tad too young.

I'm having a li'l difficulty grasping this snippet from the trailer....  

 

Reacher:  "The shooter was someone who knows firearms well."

 

Finlay:  "Enlighten me!"

 

Reacher:  "The bullets were 95 grain.  That's subsonic."

 

Now I'm wonderin'... just what caliber and firearm that might be!

I wonder how us "mere peons" will be able to access it without signing up to ANY form of network or payment .....

If you have an Amazon account and are a Prime member you get it.  If not you don't get it.

.380…maybe

But right after that statement it showed someone shooting a gun that looked like a full size 9mm with a suppressor. 95 grain 9mm is not subsonic.

Thank's for the heads-up!

Me too, I’m not paying for anything else! My cable bill is enough as it is !

I'm in. 
Big fan of the books, read 'em all at least 2x.

[Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619]

This guy looks OK. I always thought Jason Statham woud have been great in the role.

Just got the latest one on Kindle. Haven’t started it yet.

[Smokin Gator SASS #29736]

I really like Jason Statham but he's still not close to Reacher as far as size. The new guy is 37 years old and the books span quite a few years in time. This is supposed to be one of the early stories so I don't think he's too young. Hope it's good.

I saw the new trailer, and the guy they picked does the job in my head.
I liked Tom Cruise even though he didn't have the physical attributes at all.
