Sunday, July 17, 2011 at 3:24AM Tom Cruise is Jack Reacher in 'One Shot'
You're probably wondering what the film One Shot is about. Here's the Synopsis:
Six shots. Five dead. One heartland city thrown into a state of terror. But within hours the cops have it solved: a slam-dunk case. Except for one thing. The accused man says: You got the wrong guy. Then he says: Get Reacher for me.
And sure enough, ex–military investigator Jack Reacher is coming. He knows this shooter—a trained military sniper who never should have missed a shot. Reacher is certain something is not right—and soon the slam-dunk case explodes.
Now Reacher is teamed with a beautiful young defense lawyer, moving closer to the unseen enemy who is pulling the strings. Reacher knows that no two opponents are created equal. This one has come to the heartland from his own kind of hell. And Reacher knows that the only way to take him down is to match his ruthlessness and cunning—and then beat him shot for shot.
So Tom Cruise will play Jack Reacher in the Christopher McQuarrie written and directed film One Shot. McQuarrie is best know for his work on The Usual Suspects and most recently, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol One Shot is based on a New York Times bestseller authored by Lee Child. Surprisingly, One Shot is the 9th book in the series about Jack Reacher. It's interesting they decided to start with this one and they could have had eight sequels if they started from the first.

The Reacher Novels are all standalone, with little to none references to previous books, so it doesn't matter which one they are filming first.
Thanks for that tidbit Federico! It seems like you are a fan? Can we expect some interesting twists from this movie?

JAck Reacher is supposedly 6'-6" tall and a dominating physical presence. Tom Cruise DOES NOT fit this at all.
Wolverine is 5'3" in the comics, and they got Hugh Jackman to play him.
Yes, I'm a fan of the novels. It's a really good book. Cruise can "act" Reacher personality but it will be hard for not to expect a really tall guy, because he talks a lot about being taller than most people.
