Which actor to replace Tome Cruise as Jack Reacher

[ruffrecords]

I am a Jack Reacher fan but I never thought Tom Cruise was the right choice to play him in the movies. Looks like he is now out of the picture for that role so who do you think would be the right actor the play big bad Jack Reacher.

How about David Harbour ( the new Hell Boy)?? I would have gone for the original Hell Boy (Ron Perlman) but he is my age.

I've only seen the first one....Thought it was pretty good.... I think Tom is a good actor...

IDK maybe Jeremy Renner??? He can do the military thing pretty good I think.....

I think Jeremy Renner, like Cruise is a little on the small side. Reacher is a BIG guy.

He is described as:

"being 6 feet 5 inches (1.96 m) tall, weighing 210–250 pounds (95–113 kg) and having a 50-inch (130 cm) chest"

"six-pack like a cobbled city street, a chest like a suit of NFL armor, biceps like basketballs, and subcutaneous fat like a Kleenex tissue"

Oh..Gotcha..... must be a book ??

Hmmm.....

I'm not a big watcher of shows so, I'm drawing a blank.....Looking at some of the actors statures though is interesting.... 

Tough call.....

what about

Keanu Reeves?  he was a good John wick and Neo in the matrix...

 

[scott2000]

He was actually my first thought....but kinda similar movies in a way.....

Anyway, He'd have to get on some growth hormone to fill the description Ian posted...

Never knew he was over 6ft though.... interesting.....

THat's right. Writtin by a Brit called Lee Child. He got made redundant from his job in the UK many years, moved to the US, started writing Jack Reacher novels and never looked back.

So what your saying is, he is not really 6" 1" we just perceive him as such.
