Prime Video "Reacher" star Alan Ritchson revealed that plans to adapt "Die Trying," the second novel in Lee Child's book series, for the television show were halted after a certain "someone" got re-elected. Ritchson shared the information in a social media comment posted to Threads on Friday in response to a user's comment.
Each season of the hit streaming series typically adapts a different book from the popular Jack Reacher literary franchise. The cancellation or shelving of the specific season focused on "Die Trying" directly ties the production change to the recent political re-election mentioned by the actor.
