HOLLYWOOD, CA (October 20, 2015) – Paramount Pictures and Skydance Media today announced that principal photography has commenced on “JACK REACHER: NEVER GO BACK,” starring Tom Cruise (the “MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE” franchise, “EDGE OF TOMORROW”) and directed by Edward Zwick (“THE LAST SAMURAI,” “BLOOD DIAMOND”).

Production will take place in New Orleans. The film is set for release on October 21, 2016.

The new film, a sequel to 2012’s “JACK REACHER,” is based on author Lee Child’s 18th book in the bestselling Jack Reacher series, Never Go Back. The film is written by Richard Wenk (“THE EXPENDABLES 2,” “THE EQUALIZER”), Marshall Herskovitz (“LOVE AND OTHER DRUGS,” “THE LAST SAMURAI”) & Zwick.

Cruise is producing alongside Don Granger (“MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION,” “JACK REACHER”), Skydance Media’s David Ellison and Dana Goldberg (“MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION,” “ EOSTORM”), and Christopher McQuarrie (“MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION,” “ ALKYRIE”). The executive producers are Paula Wagner (“WAR OF THE WORLDS,” “THE OTHERS”) and Herb Gains (“THE JUDGE,” “NON-STOP”).

“JACK REACHER: NEVER GO BACK” also stars Cobie Smulders (“How I Met Your Mother,” “AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON”), Danika Yarosh (“Heroes Reborn,” “ hameless”), Austin Hebert (“Bonnie and Clyde”), Patrick Heusinger (“QUANTUM BREAK,” “GIRLFRIEND’S GUIDE TO DIVORCE”), Aldis Hodge (“STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON,” “A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD”), and Holt McCallany (“Blue Bloods,” “GANGSTER SQUAD”).

Tom Cruise is a global cultural icon who has made an immeasurable impact on cinema by creating some of the most memorable characters of all time in legendary films such as “TOP GUN,” “JERRY MAGUIRE,” “RISKY BUSINESS,” “MINORITY REPORT,” “INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE,” “A FEW GOOD MEN,” “THE FIRM,” “RAIN MAN,” “ OLLATERAL,” “THE LAST SAMURAI,” “EDGE OF TOMORROW,” “THE COLOR OF MONEY,” and the “MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE” franchise among many others.

A consummate filmmaker involved in all aspects of film production, Cruise has achieved extraordinary success as an actor, producer, and philanthropist in a career spanning over three decades. A three-time Academy Award® nominee and three-time Golden Globe Award winner his films have earned over eight billion dollars in worldwide box office alone— an incomparable accomplishment.

Cobie Smulders?

A pretty unknown cast

A pretty unknown cast

= a fairly inexpensive cast. 

 

This is sold as make/break on Cruise alone, why spend too much money on another name when this film is lucky to have gotten a sequel in the first place?

Hopefully it's another solid entry and Cruise will do a few more every 2-3 years.

220m on a 60m budget while having to change the release date and limit marketing because of a shooting is a good. Of course it was going to get a sequel even more so after the success it found post theatrical run.

Agreed.  And I like this movie a lot, actually...even more than a lot of recent Cruise (and I'm not saying any of them are *not* quality).  I think it's an interesting mid-budget little series that he can establish here that could even take him into his post-action-MI days...if he has them.

They're done filming

I quite enjoyed the first movie so I'm definitely looking forward to this. Plus, I work in NOLA so that's cool. 

 

Somebody on my Facebook ran into Cruise while he was here filming and got a picture with him.

The Jack reacher book really aren't good enough to warrant more than one film, especially with tom cruse who is not only nothing like the character, he's too good for the books.

it was alright. It baffles me why they made 'One Shot' into a film when its far from the best Reacher book.

Really good?

 

I enjoyed I admit but it wasn't groundbreaking. I liked, I'm in the camp championing this follow-up but I'm also objective. In the action film sub-genre to which this might belong it wasn't anything super special. 

It made me curious to check out one of the books...eventually. My reading backlog is ludicrous as this point but I digress.

Jack Reacher rocks and is much better than all of the recent Mission Impossible movies people fawn over

[Ethan Hunt]

Jack Reacher was as good if not better than Rogue Nation. Ghost Protocol on the other hand...

McQuarrie & Cruise Missile are just a great team.
