Revisiting Christopher McQuarrie on "Jack Reacher"

For the anniversary of “Jack Reacher,” we chatted with writer/director Christopher McQuarrie. We go deep on the movie, including how “Jack Reacher” and “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” are inexorably linked, why Tom Cruise was a perfect Reacher, and how they constructed the movie’s wordless opening.

This episode was originally released in December 2022.

You can own “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning” on digital and 4K HD, Blu-ray and DVD now.
