'Reacher' Author Lee Child on Season 3 and Being 'Incredibly Jealous' of That Neagley Spinoff

  • 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).

In an interview with MSN, Lee Child, the author behind the Jack Reacher series, discussed the upcoming third season of the "Reacher" TV show on Amazon Prime Video, which will adapt the seventh book, "Persuader." Child expressed his excitement about the adaptation, particularly praising the casting of Alan Ritchson as Reacher, noting his physical suitability for the role. He also touched on the potential for a spinoff featuring Frances Neagley, portrayed by Maria Sten, admitting his jealousy over the idea since Neagley's character was not originally his creation but was developed by his brother, Andrew Child, who now co-writes the series. Child highlighted the dynamic between Reacher and Neagley, suggesting that their relationship could be explored further in a spinoff, although he humorously mentioned his envy of not having thought of Neagley himself.
