Jackec Rice actor Alan Richson is known for his fight, but few people know he has some brains. As a child, the author of the book series, the TV -Reacher is based, Discovered in an interview of 2022, Richson got a hobby that could surprise some fans: "When we got together in the room, I found out (Richson) pretty well in playing chess," he said. "Really fits in Reacher - he's always one move to everyone else ..."

Richson himself explained his hobby in chess:

"In the third grade, there was a chess club at school and there was a bowl of jelly from the front of the classroom. Thee was playing after school, and if you won, you got a jelly at the nearby factory.

So, to put this condition in the sense, Richson's brother was very much like Pauli of the season 3, except instead of being unexpectedly strong, he was unexpectedly good at chess. Just like How did the achiever feel after Pauli hits the slap on the groundRichson was stunned when his brother unexpectedly checked him.

But instead of going down in defeat, Richson took it and used it as a motivation to improve its chess skills and avenge. He doesn't say in the interview if he still got it, but I imagine his rematch with his brother is the chess equivalent of Choose and Pauli fight each other for ten minutes directly.

Not to think that Richson lied about his Loveub's chess for some reason, he again mentioned the game in a separate interview three years later. Talk to Colider in February 2025Ritson compared the story of Reacher Season 3 with the classic game. "We are all playing chess at the same time," he said, "trying to get back to each other. And I think that's what it really does to sing as much as this season."

Perhaps the seasonal sequence of the season, where it pretends Reacher Coincidentally shoot a policeman So that Zahari Beck trusts him, is the equivalent of Reacher of the Queen's Gambit. Maybe Reacher that kills that Henchman and filling him under the desk is his version of a passer -by. Well, metaphor is increasingly stabbing when you remember the pure amount of different "players" included in this season. Each new character has its own agenda, which means that season 3 is more like that Chess boards with 4 players which are much less common.

And, although the 4 -player chessboard is much more difficult to navigate, Reacher always manages to pull it; Although, not without the occasional loss of the road. "((Reacher's) calculates. This opportunity is put into this opportunity," Richson said in the '22 interview.
