Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Reacher star Alan Ritchson explains how his character is like the American version of James Bond — only better. As the lead of Prime Video's action thriller, which will soon return for Reacher season 3, the performance has earned Ritchson praise and allowed him to emerge as a featured star in blockbusters such as Fast X. But the actor has a unique take on what makes Reacher so different from other stalwarts of the genre.
It’s funny, I kind of feel like Reacher is the American James Bond. And I’ve never had more fun playing a character. I love those larger-than-life, over-the-top action thrillers and spy movies and the heists that are smart and ahead of the audience. That’s really great, but I feel like Bond, to me personally — people are going to hate me for saying this — I love Bond, but I feel like it’s all a little misogynistic and predictable at this point.
Related Reacher Cast, Character & Book Comparison Guide Amazon Prime Video's Reacher returns audiences to the vivid world of Killing Floor, but how is its cast different from the original novel characters? Reacher Does Have a Lot in Common with Bond Close Ritchson is correct in noting that Reacher may not be aware of how cool he is at the level of Bond, but the character's superiority shows in other ways.
If the show continues to introduce new love interests each season without developing them further, it could fairly be accused of the same issues that the Bond franchise has faced in its depiction of women.
