‘Reacher’ Season 5 Officially Casts a Sleazy New Strip-Club Kingpin



[

If there’s one thing Jack Reacher has learned during his travels across America, it’s that there is no shortage of idiots out there who think it’s a good idea to try and get one over on him. Fortunately, Alan Ritchson‘s enormous former military policeman has become pretty good at dealing with them, even if his methods occasionally involve throwing somebody through the nearest available wall. After four explosive seasons, Reacher is about to come across his most “disgusting” challenge yet and one of his most unpleasant enemies has just been cast.

Reacher Season 5 has officially cast Ari Stidham, best known for CBS’ Scorpion, as Dean Lassider, a sleazy businessman who operates his criminal enterprise from a strip club in the desert. According to Deadline, Lassider is a longtime associate of Nokes, the imposing new character portrayed by Kevin Durand. The casting also reunites Stidham with showrunner Nick Santora.































































What Is ‘Reacher’ Season 5 About?

The next season will adapt Make Me, Lee Child‘s 20th Reacher novel, which begins with Reacher stepping off a train in the tiny town of Mother’s Rest simply because he wants to discover where its peculiar name came from. In Mother’s Rest, he meets private investigator Michelle Chang, whose colleague has vanished while investigating the town, but what initially looks like another disappearance gradually becomes something much worse.

Of course, Reacher will also take some time out to probably go to a diner, find some silver dollar pancakes, bacon, and two eggs as well as an unlimited amount of coffee that he will use to fuel himself for the challenge ahead of him. And then someone will ask him a question, and Reacher will say nothing. Yes, there’s a formula to these stories and yes, we can’t get enough of them.

The new season stars Alan Ritchson (Titans) as Jack Reacher, Amanda Ip (Transplant) as Michelle Chang, Jay Baruchel (This Is the End) as Chief Buck Bauer, Ciara Bravo (Cherry) as Eunice, Kevin Durand (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes) as Nokes, and Stidham as Dean Lassider.

All four seasons of Reacher are streaming on Prime Video, with Season 5 currently in production.
