Well at least there was an answer, finally. Albeit the worst possible choice. I've settled on Liam neeson. He isn't the size reacher is portrayed as in th book, but i don't think there is anyone anywhere who fits the bill. But i think he suits everywhere else. Issue with Tom cruise is that reacher is a brawler, from what I saw they've turned him I to Jason Bourne.
Whoever the choice was, they had to be a great actor. They would have killed the series before it even started by putting a body builder in or someone who can't act. There gone with a good actor who doesn't physically fit the bill. Those pics above look to be body builders, reacher never did weights, he was just big.
