When Tom Cruise was cast as Jack Reacher there was more than a few murmurs from the internet. He didn’t match the description of Lee Child’s antagonist, most notably in the height department. Despite this, and some fans of the books flat out refusing to watch the film, Jack Reacher was a box office hit, earning mostly positive reviews from critics in the process (suck it fanboys).
Now Cruise returns in Jack Reacher: Never Go Back where he doesn’t take the advice of the title and finds himself the suspect of a 16 year old homicide.
Expect Cruise killing loads of cartoon bad guys while delivering witty one liners in a loving throwback to 80’s action films.
The film is scheduled to be released on October 21, 2016.
