"Jack Reacher: Never Go Back" Plot Spoilers
Lee Child novels have well pictured Jack Reacher as a military police officer and introvert who lives solo, a massive guy and a virtually unstoppable force.
The sequel follows the titular character Jack Reacher as he returns as a stoic vigilante hero to Virginia to meet the head of his former unit. He then finds out that his past boss is being charged with a crime committed nearly 20 years ago, and that there are proofs that he may even have a daughter. Reacher trying to make things right will lead him to a cross-country chase to find out the truth -- and maybe even unveil a family hidden from him. Fans of the mean-to-wrongdoers character are then excited to find out from the movie if he gets a little more "domestic" when he finds out about his might-be teenage daughter.
"How would Reacher deal with a 15-year-old," Cruise asked in an interview. "It's the characters around him who bring out different aspects of his personality," he explained.
Cruise will be joined in the film by "Avengers" star Cobie Smulders along with supporting characters played by Robert Knepper, Aldis Hodge and Danika Yarosh.
"Jack Reacher: Never Go Back" was written and co-directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who also wrote other notable Cruise action movies like "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Valkyrie" as well as the hit action film "Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation."
"Jack Reacher: Never Go Back" is set for release on Oct. 21 with Edward Zwick ("Pawn Sacrifice") directing the sequel along with Smulders ("How I Met Your Mother"), Yarosh ("Heroes Reborn"), Austin Hebert ("Bonnie and Clyde"), Patrick Heusinger ("Girlfriend's Guide To Divorce"), Hodge ("Straight Outta Compton"), Holt McCallany ("Gangster Squad") and Knepper ("Prison Break").
