Well look what Thor turned into, a total joke, so he honestly was just ahead of their game.
He assumed correctly 👏🏼
They should have cast him as Hercules
Well, he was right though!
Not like he didn’t try to change his look. He’s a lot of steroids and spray tan away from his Blue Mountain State days.
I think he would be a great Azrael
Should’ve been a new Terminator model
Still think they chose right.
I think I’ve had enough of Alan Ritchson
Ummmm he’s not that good of an actor
*actor doesn’t get the part*
“Yeah I mean I wasn’t trying anyway”
That’s such a weird stance.
In normal life, a big, burly, Thor looking kind of guy is rare. If he auditions for any local theater version of Thor, he’d 100% get the part.
But it’s Hollywood… handsome, big, strong guys are a dime a dozen. How could he possibly think that was all there was to it?
After seeing the kind of garbage this guy endorses off-screen I think we dodged a bullet there.
I for one am happy he missed out on Thor because we got Alan in Blood Drive.
The plot of Reacher seems to center around normal looking people menacing this fucking giant monster man with no consideration for their safety.
He made Hawk look cool. No easy feat
I think we got the right Thor.
Well they hired Chris….
Would have been a killer Nova.
Bring back Blood Drive, I miss that show.
Yeah, cause he’s such an awesome actor.
Alan you don’t have either. You’re just big.
well either way he would’ve lost it then, cause as an actor he’s for the daytime soaps
This may be a blessing in disguise given the current trend of Marvel and Disney content.
Well he isn’t a great actor so I guess they cared a little about the actors acting capabilities lol
I have enjoyed Richardson in “Reacher”, but…so far I haven’t seen him stretch his acting abilities.
It may just be that the scripts and director are playing to a specific demographic, but even if he is an incredible actor, I haven’t seen it yet.
Like John Wayne, I’ve only seen him play one character so far.
He should probably continue to looks for jobs that prioritize looks over acting.
Is there acting going on in reacher?
