THRILLER writer Lee Child says he wants a colossus to play his crime-busting hero for new TV series
Author Lee Child needs a hero. And this time he’s going large. “We are going for the biggest guy you’ve ever seen,” he promises. “I don’t know where we’ll find him.” Because the boots he needs to fill belong to his much-loved character, Jack Reacher. He is looking for the impossible: a hunk big enough, but also smart enough, to play the part of a 6ft 5in, 250lb, ex-military cop whose adventures are about to feature in an Amazon Prime TV series scheduled to begin shooting later this year.
