Actor Alan Ritchson says Prime Video canceled Jack Reacher novel adaptation after Trump's 2024 election win

Alan Ritchson, star of Prime Video's Reacher, claimed that plans to adapt his favorite Jack Reacher novel, Die Trying, were scrapped after Donald Trump won the 2024 US presidential election. The novel involves a white supremacist militia. Ritchson made the claim on Threads, saying the adaptation was approved until someone got re-elected. Prime Video has not commented. Ritchson has previously criticized Trump, drawing backlash from supporters. Separately, author Lee Child moved back to the UK from the US before Trump's inauguration, citing it as a point of principle.
