The makers of the upcoming season of Reacher have announced the details regarding its initial cast and crew. The makers of Reacher Season 4 have welcomed eight new actors to its cast.
Reacher Season 4, which stars
Alan Ritchson
in the title role, is based on Gone Tomorrow, the thirteenth book in Lee Child's internationally acclaimed Jack Reacher novel series.
The show's description reads, 'When a chance encounter with a distraught stranger on a train goes horribly wrong, Jack Reacher is drawn into a complex and deadly game that pits him against ruthless foes from the highest echelons of power.'
New cast members joining Ritchson for Reacher Season 4 include: Jay Baruchel as Jacob Merrick, Sydelle Noel as Tamara Green, Agnez Mo as Lila Hoth, Anggun as Amisha Hoth, Kevin Weisman as Russell Plum, Marc Blucas as John Samson, Kevin Corrigan as Detective Docherty, and Kathleen Robertson as Elsbeth Samson.
Baruchel will play Jacob Merrick, a small-town policeman. Noel will play Tamara Green, a detective with the Philadelphia Police Department. Mo will portray Lila Hoth, a young Indonesian woman who, along with her mother Amisha Hoth (Anggun), comes to Philadelphia to track down Lila's American biological father. Corrigan will play Detective Docherty, Tamara's partner.
Weisman will portray Russell Plum, a freelance journalist in Washington DC who has been surveilling a suspected CIA black site.

Blucas will play John Samson, a U.S. Congressman, while Robertson will play his wife, Elsbeth Samson.
Reacher fans familiar with Gone Tomorrow may notice that the OTT series has tweaked some of the character names from the novel, with Merrick replacing Mark, Tamara swapping in for Theresa, Elspeth trading out the 'p' for a 'b' to become Elsbeth, and Svetlana becoming Amisha. The only major characters from Gone Tomorrow who remain to be cast for Season 4 are Susan Mark (likely Susan Merrick in the series) and Mr Springfield.
The streaming platform handed Reacher an early Season 4 renewal back in October 2024, four months before the third season premiered on the platform. It went on to become the biggest returning series in the streaming platform's history.
The first three seasons of 'Reacher' are now streaming on OTT. A release window for Season 4 has not yet been announced.

9 classic 90s anime that deserve an action-packed remake
The 1990s were a golden era for anime, producing a slew of action-packed series that helped define genres, establish tropes, and lay the foundation for today's anime culture. From sword-wielding heroes to space bounty hunters, these shows captivated audiences with their high-energy battles, emotional storytelling, and unforgettable characters. However, despite their iconic status, many of these classics are burdened by the technical limitations of their time—dated animation, inconsistent pacing, and production constraints that prevented some from realizing their full potential. With modern animation technology, improved storytelling standards, and a growing appetite for remakes and reboots, now is the perfect time to revisit these nostalgic gems. A well-crafted remake could breathe new life into these series—reintroducing them to younger audiences and giving long-time fans a visually and emotionally upgraded experience. Inspired in part by a curated list from Game Rant , here are nine classic 1990s action anime that deserve a thoughtful and high-quality modern remake. 1. Flame of Recca The Underrated Ninja Epic With Fiery Potential Originally highlighted by Game Rant for its tournament arcs and ninja lore. Original Release: July 19, 1997 Studio: Pierrot Episodes: 42 Manga By: Nobuyuki Anzai Current Score (MyAnimeList): 7.34 A spiritual successor to Yu Yu Hakusho , Flame of Recca tells the story of Recca Hanabishi, a modern-day teenager who discovers his lineage from a flame-wielding ninja clan. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo The series blends traditional ninja lore with supernatural powers, martial arts tournaments, and a deeply personal journey of self-discovery. 2. Berserk (1997) A Dark Fantasy Classic Deserving a Worthy Adaptation Original Release: October 8, 1997 Studio: OLM Episodes: 25 Manga By: Kentaro Miura Current Score (MyAnimeList): 8.59 Kentaro Miura's Berserk is a grim masterpiece that explores the brutal life of Guts, a lone mercenary entangled in a cycle of war, betrayal, and demonic terror. While Game Rant acknowledges the 1997 version as the best adaptation to date, a full remake with modern animation could finally capture the manga's rich, tragic scope. 3. Yu Yu Hakusho The Spirit Detective Saga That Set the Shōnen Standard Original Release: 1992–1994 Studio: Pierrot Episodes: 112 Manga By: Yoshihiro Togashi Current Score (MyAnimeList): 8.46 Recognized by Game Rant as a foundational shōnen, Yu Yu Hakusho stands the test of time in story and characters. However, a visual refresh and refined pacing could elevate this supernatural saga for today's generation of anime fans. 4. Outlaw Star A Space Western Worthy of Revival Original Release: January 1998 Studio: Sunrise Episodes: 26 Manga By: Takehiko Itō Current Score (MyAnimeList): 7.83 Outlaw Star was praised in the Game Rant piece for its fusion of sci-fi and Western themes. A modern remake could build on its legacy, especially in a post- Cowboy Bebop streaming era hungry for stylized space operas. 5. The Big O Noir Meets Mecha in a Memory-Loss Dystopia Original Release: October 13, 1999 Studio: Sunrise Episodes: 26 (Two Seasons) Cited for its unique genre-blending style, The Big O offers a noir-meets-mecha story that's well-suited for a modern comeback. A clearer narrative direction and high-budget animation could bring this cult favorite new acclaim. 6. Revolutionary Girl Utena A Symbolic Masterpiece Ready for Rediscovery Original Release: April 1997 Studio: Episodes: 39 Created By: Be-Papas Current Score (MyAnimeList): 8.22 According to Game Rant , Utena's exploration of identity and gender roles makes it an ideal candidate for a remake. Today's social climate is primed for a reboot that remains faithful to its progressive roots while updating its accessibility. 7. Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water Steampunk Adventure Through Jules Verne's Lens Original Release: 1990 Studio: Gainax & Group TAC Episodes: 39 Game Rant included Nadia for its thematic depth and connection to 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea . A remake could enhance its steampunk elements, streamline the pacing, and improve on the sometimes uneven animation. 8. Crows High School Gangs and Gritty Street Justice Original Release: January 1994 Studio: Knack Productions Episodes: OVA series Based on Hiroshi Takahashi's manga, Crows deserves a remake as gritty as the street fights it portrays. Game Rant rightly identified this early 90s OVA as a raw gem awaiting proper adaptation. 9. Blue Seed Mythology, Monsters, and Missed Opportunities Original Release: October 1994 Studios: Production I.G & Ashi Productions Episodes: 26 + OVA Game Rant spotlighted Blue Seed for its mythological approach and urban action, noting that a remake could better explore its fascinating Japanese folklore themes with modern storytelling and aesthetics.

Pani's ‘Karna Arjuna' gets a stage in Canada
1 2 3 4 5 6 Bhubaneswar: 'Karna Arjuna', an Odia opera by renowned 19th century dramatist Baisnab Pani was the show-stealer at 'Bishuba milana' organised by Canada-Odisha Society of Americas (CanOSA) at Etobicoke, Toronto. The one-hour show was staged at the Dante Alighieri Academy Theatre by around 11 artistes and seven others playing their roles behind the scenes. "It is heartening to learn that Pani's mythological work was staged in Canada. It's a sign of Odia Asmita," said Dhira Mallick, a noted theatre personality. Mallick said Pani, who was born in Mahanga, Cuttack, used to move from village to village to perform 'geetinatya' (a musical presentation where dialogues are followed by songs). Almost all performers, being IT professionals or scientists, devoted their weekends for over four months to rehearse, get costumes and props like weapons ready, decide the stage décor with cut-outs of chariots and horses, checking the sound systems, make-up, among others. "We decided to stage the geetinatya as many people were keen to watch mythological plays. We had staged it 17 years ago," said Gagan Behari Panigrahi, a molecular biologist and producer. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Living abroad, the opera tested the resourcefulness and ingenuity of Odias, particularly when it came to costumes as they had to make everything. While saris of different colours were used as 'dhotis', coloured T-shirts were modified and embellished. "The crowns that were brought from India long back were modified. Besides, we made beards and moustaches as I had the knowledge from my high school drama experience," said Panigrahi. The work was very time-consuming and creative, but teamwork helped them tide through. "One of our teammates, Nibedita Pattnaik, arranged all the saris," said Panigrahi, who added a few scenes on audience demand. Nearly 500 people from Toronto, Ottawa and New York attended the programme.
