I realize this guy looks more like the Reacher from the books
but come on. On the big screen that midget scientologist is Jack Reacher. This movie is going to crash hard without Tom.
There is some truth too that.
Jack Reacher was a very good movie, and it go made because of Cruise star power, and he also produced. Many people thought he was miscast but I loved the movie.
Now we have an actor who resembles the character from the book, but he's clearly a second rate actor. Probably came cheap.
And still not tall enough. Probably will look tall enough given Hollywood's actors are normally little short fuckers, so anyone over 6 foot will look like a giant.
shareHe's exactly the right height, 6' 5". How is that not tall enough?
shareHe isn't 6' 5", he's at most 6' 2"... that was the height he was claiming prior to this series being made and if you look at him when he is standing with Willa Fitzgerald in the show it is pretty clear he isn't a foot taller than she is because she's only 5' 5"...
Here's a photo of the cast. You'll notice he isn't towering over them like someone that's 6' 5" would be.

I stand corrected.
shareNo problem. I suspect you read some of the PR bullshit that Amazon's market department had been spewing. I knew there was one pre-release story where they claimed he was 6' 5", I believed it myself until I started watching the show... at that point I started looking deeper because it looked like BS.
shareHe's definitely not an A-list actor but he's far from 'second rate' - at least his performance is and while I like both cinematic efforts this series is much better than both.
