In season 3, Reacher is no longer the biggest man in the room as the hulky ex-soldier finally meets his match in a taller and heavier opponent. However, star Alan Ritchson says that is a good thing, as he’s not like other actors who want their action characters to be almost super-human.
"We live in an age where there are a lot of actors out there. I'm not gonna name names, but like, there are people who just kind of have to be invincible in their roles. And what kind of fun is that for audiences?," says Ritchson to GamesRadar+. "You know, if [Reacher] is like, too superhuman or indestructible, it's not gonna be that fun to watch. So it's really fun to pair him with somebody that makes you question whether or not he's gonna live."
