“Reacher” star Alan Ritchson had plans to adapt the second book in the popular “Jack Reacher” series for the Prime Video show — before a certain “someone” got re-elected, he wrote in a comment posted to Threads on Friday.

Responding to a user who wrote that “every year I’m sad to learn that next season won’t be the book where he kills his way through a white supremacist militia camp,” Ritchson explained that the novel (titled “Die Trying”) is his “favorite book.” “Fun fact: I had it approved until someone got re-elected.”
