How could he be, Reacher is 6-5 250 pounds? And, there might be another Reacher movie but it won't be a sequel, it will just be a whole other book. There are about 15 of them.
Ummm... You don't know what sequel means?

What do you think a sequel is, Avante?
Why try so hard?
I look at a sequal a little differently when it comes to books. Another book is just that ....another book. Now if it's like the Lord of the Ring saga, then we'd have a sequel.
It's a legitimate question at this point.

I've heard that complaint before but Cruise's production team bought the rights so it was his decision to make. Probably were actors who fit the physical profile better but then the film probably wouldn't have been made if not for Cruise.
When a movie is being done about a real life person or a literary character ya can't just do what ya want. You can't do a movie about Lincoln and use a guy 5-5. Reacher has a large following I'm guessing Cruise didn't know that. And in all of the books there's Reacher zoning out/chilling with some blues, music. We saw none of that.
Actually it's much easier to do what one wants with a fictional character. It's done all the time.Of course Tom Cruise knew that. That's the whole reason movies based on books get made.Reacher has a large following I'm guessing Cruise didn't know that.
A movie is going to be made about Samson, you want a guy nobody has ever seen before, so auditions are being held. Will a short fat guy get the part, how about a tall skinny cat?
That would be a boring movie tbh.
Who out there would follow a guy around who has told....you suck so go away.....? Look at this freak, it this sad or what?

Consider yourself shat upon by the author of Jack Reacher.
When was the last tme you went to see a movie?
Most movies that get made from books, real life events etc often cast people who dont even come close to portraying said characters.
I dont have an issue with Tom Cruise playing a made up character from a book. But I do take issue when they cast Americans or English actors to portray spanish people. (The Impossible-Naomi Watts.)
I like these type of movies because it's so much easier to suspend disbelief when the plot allows it through either time travel or this groundhog day effect. I find these things more enjoyable than just accepting that midget Cruise is some badass.
As someone mentioned, not worth poking holes in because it was a great movie. But the one thing that I wondered was:
When they go back to the General to get the mechanism, why didn't Cruise inject himself right there and then try to get the General on board with mass attaching the Omega with the military?
As opposed to leaving the office and then injecting himself in the middle of the car chase.
Or once they realized things were going bad, just shoot Cruise and reset.
love repeat movies like edge of tomorrow and ground hog day.
Anyone have others suggestions?
honestly though, the ing point where he drowns himself in like 3 feet of water was insane
I've probably gone to the movies about 3/4 times a year since I was a kid. Yep, tons~~~~~~
So give me an example of what you are talking about.
In every Reacher book there is talk about his size, and usually some mention about how being this big guy....later on in all the books. The fact he is a big bad dude is a major factor in his story.
not exactly the same but Primer is very good.
I thought they were going to make a movie of Ken Grimwood's, Replay novel but I don't see anything anymore.
It was three feet but wasn't he completely submerged?
Well, Cruise himself played Claus von Stauffenberg, who in real life was 6'3".
Chris Hemsworth is 6'3" -- not the 6'6" that Thor is listed at in the Marvel wiki.
Hugh Jackman is a full foot taller than comic book Wolverine.
Nick Fury is (maybe was) white in the comics.
It's called acting, dude. Suspension of disbelief.
it was closer to a puddle than 3 feet tbqh
HNIC nick fury was in the comics continuity before iron man 1
sure...but I think it completely filled up the space he was in
