Leonardo DiCaprio Passed On Playing Jack Reacher's Prototype In This Unmade Blockbuster

Summary by ScreenRant
Leonardo DiCaprio dropped out of playing pulp hero Travis McGee, the inspiration behind Jack Reacher himself. Lee Child's Jack Reacher books have been wildly popular for over 20 years, with Prime's adaptation only giving it a larger fanbase. A key formula behind the novels is that each one is a soft reboot; Reacher stays the same, but always finds himself in a new town/city/country to take down the latest group of villains.
