Dry Reacher

We all know Reacher has been on a dry spell since the opening scene of the first movie. Even his cross country bus trek to meet a net chick failed to result in copulation in NGB.

Could we see a trilogy that wraps up with Reacher finally getting some action? Perhaps a 21st century interpretation of How Stella Got Her Groove Back?

Cruise seems to be celibate. Didn't get any even in the past few MI movies. The irony of the Reacher movies is - he gets laid in both books. In the first, an old army girlfriend drops by to check out the Barr case, and, in Never go back, he and Turner jump each other's bones the first chance they get and every other time they have nothing to do.

Hahaha. It's so weird they just didn't allude to it and leave it off screen - instead having Reacher strike out and console himself by eating a burger on his bed.

They were too busy dealing with Cruise's fatherhood issues .
