'Reacher' Season 3 Cast Guide: All the Characters in the DEA Drama

Reacher Season 3 Cast Guide All the Characters in the DEA Drama
Every new season of Reacher brings in a new cast of characters, and this dramatic DEA season is no different.

“Reacher” is back, and our heroic hunk has to battle perhaps his toughest adversary yet: An even bigger guy!

Yes, the marquee fights this season are between our jacked hero Reacher (Alan Ritchson) and an absolutely enormous bodyguard Paulie (Olivier Richters), but there are plenty of other challenges, including a charismatic big bad (Anthony Michael Hall), a man from Reacher’s past with dark secrets (Brian Tee) and even a DEA agent who may not like his law-bending methods (Sonya Cassidy).

Per Prime Video, the third season of the series follows Reacher as he “hurtles into the dark heart of a vast criminal enterprise when trying to rescue an undercover DEA informant whose time is running out. There he finds a world of secrecy and violence — and confronts some unfinished business from his own past.”

Per usual, most of the characters from the first two seasons have been axed for a new roster, so Variety has a breakdown of the (mostly) new faces in Season 3.

    The Hollywood icon takes a dark turn as Zachary Beck, who, per the show’s promotional materials, is “a formidable and successful businessman, Beck is a widow and single father of a 20-year-old son, Richard. He is the owner of a rug import company that Reacher and his cohorts suspect is a cover for a more nefarious operation.”

Ritchers is nicknamed “The Dutch Giant” and stands 7’2” and weighs 342lbs, holding the Guinness World Record as the tallest currently active actor and bodybuilder. Paulie is Zachary Beck’s bodyguard, and is sure to give Reacher a run for his money in the beefcake department.
