Obviously Cruise is set to reprise his role as Jack Reacher, however director Christopher McQuarrie will not be returning. Instead, Ed Zwick will be picking up directing duties, who previously worked with Cruise on The Last Samurai.
This is still in the early stages of development so there aren’t any other details as of yet, like who the villain this time around could be, but part of me hopes that Werner Herzog will somehow come back, maybe in the form of an even more evil twin version of this character from the first film?
