I just read that they are making "One Shot" into a movie and Tom Cruise is playing Reacher. Possibly the worst casting ever, he's about a foot shorter and 100 lbs lighter than the way Child describes the character. Chat Icon

I love most of the books in the Reacher series. When I heard Tom Cruise's company bought the rights for the movie, I thought no way was he planning to play Reacher! but alas, ego knows no bounds Chat Icon I am not sure I would want to watch the movie-it will be way too incongruous to fit Tom Cruise into my imagination of Reacher!

Tom Cruise CANNOT be Reacher!!!! Chat Icon I can't think of an appropriate actor right now, but he has to be over 6ft!

Just started reading the series, after someone on here recommended it.
Really? Worst casting ever.
