New Reacher book out on September 29th!!

[Sidge]

Only 44 days to go!!

Is it a proper book, or short story type thing?

BTW, have just read that Tom Cruise is to play Reacher in One Shot film, sure its been mentioned here, but why why why??

Proper book. Second Son is the short story, out yesterday, 'tis good!

BTW. Tom Cruise. No. Just No.....

Yayyy.....am away on hols at start of Sept so shame its not out before I go, a new Lee Child would be just the thing for next to the pool. Have you read the Vince Flynn series, Mitch Rapp is sort of like Reacher, but not quite . Will need to download the short story to my Kindle.

Please, no....not that awful little hobbit Cruise. Worst casting ever!

I've just discovered Jack Reacher although DP has been reading them for ages. I've only read two so far but I have downloaded several to my Kindle in preparation for upcoming beach holiday. Sun, sand and Reacher....heaven!

Reacher is supposed to be a great big, tall bloke. Cruise is about 5ft5"

So who should be Reacher

Blimey I was hoping for a film but I hate the wormy Tom Cruise.

Jack is suppossed to be a big hulking man not a weasel.

Clive Owen (Swoonsome!)

yaaaaaaaay!!!!

someone make time go faster, i need a good book to read.

Tom Cruise is too small, too 'pretty' and a terrible actor. Someone ruggedly handsome should have been cast!
Can't wait for the new book. Fill the freezer with ready-meals 'cause Mummy will be on the sofa all day!

Have you read the e-book, Second Son? It's a teeny tiny prequel of Reacher as a thirteen year old. Not bad....

I HATE the fact Tom Cruise has signed to be him. i did think it would ruin my next book as would picture him but i really can't. i have tried to read it imagining TC but its so far fetched my brain won't allow it lol.
i love these books, i discovered them on holiday last yr and have read them all (except half was through the persuader and struggling to read it as each chapter is like 40 pages and i prefer short chapters. the first book i read was Gone Tomorrow and i visualised Liam Neeson. the rest i created my own image, but would prefer Liam to Tom.
I don't usually hate but i think i hate Tom for this

Ray Stevenson would be my Reacher I think?? Not planning on seeing the film, as I dont generally like film adaptations, spend the whole time going objecting to how they have interpreted things, always ruined it, no idea who cast TC as Reacher, clearly someone who hasnt read the books.

The Kindle edition has just come "down" to £8.54 - it's over half price, and I usually pay half price on the hardback editions anyway, so I've cracked and pre-ordered it. Will it arrive at 0.01am on the 29th?? I'm getting excited already!

Just ordered it too.............Tom Cruise would have to be surrounded by a cast of dwarfs........now George would be good...........swoon

Know this is an old thread but having re-watched Master and Commander recently I think Russell Crowe would have made a great Reacher. He isn't tall enough but I could overlook that as he does have the more rugged look that I picture as Reacher. TC far too 'pretty boy'
The only actor with the height I can picture in the role is the supporting actor in The Gladiator who with the black slave supports Maximus in the fights. Can't remember his name, but he was a Mr Universe candidate in the past. His look is exactly how I see Reacher but I accept he's probably not a big enough name to carry the film.

He's called Ralf Moller. Born in 1959 so maybe too old? But isn't TC almost that old now?
