Since 1997 author Lee Child has been overseeing the world of Jack Reacher. There are the novels, of course (one released almost every year, now mostly written by Child's younger brother Andrew) and a pair of Tom Cruise movies (in 2013 and 2016).

The "Jack Reacher" author Lee Child told Business Insider he wants his book about the opioid crisis, "The Midnight Line," to be adapted for the show.

Ever since it was announced that Reacher Season 3 would be based on Lee Child’s novel Persuader, fans were excited to see how the makers would come up with the perfect casting for Paulie.
