Cringe at the end when the host said that about season 2. Obviously most don't know the back story. Maybe they will change that in later seasons. For now though she's running the show in Margrave.

some tv series called the walking fred or something like that followed the same mold - created a brand new character NOT IN THE graphic novels, and that character was in every single episode of the whole show run. And made a side career out of the show as well. Daryl? Maybe Willa should have a similar career path. She was delightful in Reacher.

My personal opinion, which may stomp some toes or not is simple.. While Cruise for me (as a non-bookreader) played the role to perfection for what i imagined J Reacher to be, I really enjoyed both movies alot. He never seizes to amaze me in his movies up untill today, yes i'm a big fan of his acting not his stuff outside of that. I also didn't know about Ritchson before.. But i've seen some stuff from the series on the tubes now and I gotta say, this dude is a killer.. Again, as a non-bookreader, this guy put up amazing acting for a character I seemingly don't know anything about :D . Also Willa, God you're a gorgeous person.. And your acting deserves way more recognition.. I wish it wasn't only on prime cuz as a Belgian, this stuff is very very small here
