Remember When ‘Reacher’s Alan Ritchson Was Aquaman?
Alan Ritchson was a hero on Smallville long before he was doling out justice as Lee Child's Unstoppable Force — Jack Reacher.
Prime Video’s Reacher was one of the best new shows of 2022, with a standout performance from its lead actor, Alan Ritchson. With Reacher having finished Season 2 and Season 3 already in production, Ritchson as an action star seems way overdue. To many, he’d seemingly come from nowhere to fill (out) the shoes originally worn by Tom Cruise in the character’s eponymous 2012 film and its 2016 sequel, Jack Reacher: Never Back Down. To others, however, Ritchson’s rise to prominence has been a long time coming. DC Comics fans, especially, have watched the actor with interest, remembering his first speaking role as none other than Arthur Curry, aka Aquaman, in the hit CW drama, Smallville.
