You need to see these 'Reacher' season 4 set photos — Alan Ritchson's new love interest revealed
"Reacher" is undeniably one of the biggest hits for Prime Video. The first three seasons have been critically and commercially successful for the streaming service — I loved season 3 when I reviewed it here at Tom's Guide — and it wasn't surprising when the show was officially renewed for season 4. Now, with production in full swing, we've gotten a first look at a major cast member. Via @rikiwichman, a fan account on Instagram, we finally got a first look at Sydelle Noel, who has joined the "Reacher" season 4 cast as Tamara Green. They initially posted the announcement back on June 18 when Noel was officially added to the cast, but revised the post yesterday (Aug. 11), complete with new set photos of Noel as Green (via Getty Images). A post shared by Riki Wichman (@rikiwichman) A photo posted by on The set photos of Sydelle smartly dressed in a professional yet functional outfit don't reveal much about her character, but her character's name reveals everything. That's because Tamara Green was originally Theresa Lee, and that means she's Alan Ritchson's love interest for season 4. For those less familiar with "Reacher," they're based on the "Jack Reacher" novel series by Lee Child, and that means if we know what book a season is based on, then we know a decent amount about what to expect from a given season. We know season 4 is based on the novel "Gone Tomorrow," thanks to an Alan Ritchson post on Instagram a few months ago. And in that installment of the series, Jack Reacher's love interest is none other than NYPD detective Theresa Lee. A post shared by Alan Ritchson (@alanritchson) A photo posted by on That makes this first look a pretty major one for "Reacher" season 4, as past love interests — Roscoe Conklin (Willa Fitzgerald), Serinda Swan (Karla Dixon) and Susan Duffy (Sonya Cassidy) — all played major roles in their given seasons, arguably costarring alongside Ritchson. So definitely don't expect this to be the last you see of Tamara Green between now and the "Reacher" season 4 release on Prime Video. So far, we know that "Reacher" season 4 will bring back Alan Ritchson as the titular, mammoth Jack Reacher, a former U.S. Army military police major whose skills allow him to solve any case and kick any butt. We also know that season 4 will be adapting "Gone Tomorrow," which has Reacher drawn into a deadly game against dangerous people after a fraught, chance encounter with a stranger on a train.

Try it free for 30 days. Aside from that, we know to expect some new faces this season, as "Reacher" largely resets its cast each season. Only Ritchson as Reacher and Maria Sten as Frances Neagley have appeared in all three seasons to date. Of course, we know Noel will be a major part of the season 4 cast as Reacher's love interest, Green, but we also know a few other cast members joining this season. Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette is playing Jacob Merrick, a small-town police officer with a big role in season 4. Jay Baruchel was originally cast as Merrick but had to leave for personal reasons. Rodriguez-Marquette, Ritchson and Noel are joined by Agnez Mo and Anggun as Lila and Amisha Hoth, who we are expecting to be the villains this season. Kevin Corrigan is playing Green's partner, NYPD Detective Docherty, Marc Blucas is politician John Samson and Kathleen Robertson is his wife, Elsbeth. Kevin Weisman is also on board as Russell Plum, the lone character that, as far as we can tell, isn't in the novel "Gone Tomorrow." The big question that remains? Will Sten return for a fourth season as Neagley? I hope so, but there's nothing official yet. She might be too busy with her "Reacher" spin-off, "Neagley," which is currently in production. Malcolm has been with Tom's Guide since 2022 and has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. He's not one to shy away from a hot take, including that "John Wick" is one of the four greatest films ever made. Here's what he's been watching lately:

Peter Goodwin of Virginia cheats on wife with former nanny: court papers
They're headed for a 50/50 split. The married son of a powerful Virginia bowling billionaire had a seamy affair with his kids' ex-nanny — and callously informed his wife he wanted a divorce as she held their baby Christmas Day, bombshell court papers claim. The sordid marital strife now rocking one of the Old Dominion State's most prominent families pits Rolex- and race car-loving scion Peter Goodwin, 40, against wife Cara Goodwin, a 40-year-old popular clinical psychologist. Advertisement 6 Peter Goodwin, the son of prominent Virginia billionaire William Goodwin, is divorcing his wife Cara after having an affair with their former nanny, court papers claim. 6 Goodwin allegedly stayed at hotels around the country with his kids' ex-nanny, Annette Lombard, court papers say. Instagram/Annette Lombard Peter — whose uber-successful dad William Goodwin is a former co-owner of the AMF Bowling chain, among a slew of other mega business ventures — kicked off the pair's divorce battle when he delivered his ill-timed big reveal to Cara over the 2023 holiday at their Virginia estate, according to documents obtained by The Post. Advertisement Cara 'sat in front of him holding their four-month-old daughter' as he told her they were through and fled, screaming obscenities while the couple's other three kids watched, read the court papers filed by Cara in Albemarle County Circuit Court. Within six days of leaving his wife, the dad of four and his blond younger honey, former family nanny Annette Lombard, were romping together at the posh Four Seasons Hotel at the Surf Club in Surfside, Fla., the documents allege. Over the next few months, the illicit pair 'engaged in adulterous acts'' everywhere from Jackson Hole, Wyo., to the former couple's Palm Beach, Fla., pad, the papers say. 6 Peter's Instagram page features dozens of sports cars and luxury watches. Advertisement Lombard, now 27, began working for the couple around age 21, starting in 2019 while she was an undergrad at the University of Virginia, court papers say. Beginning in the spring of 2020, Lombard lived with Peter and Cara and the kids for about a year as she cared for the children during the pandemic, according to the documents. She became so close to the kids that they referred to her as their sister, the filing says. That same year, Peter hired Lombard to also work for him at his office — and eventually promoted her to a vice president of his company. Advertisement But by the end of the year, Cara told her husband of her 'growing discomfort regarding the nature of his interactions with'' Lombard, which he 'dismissed,'' the documents say. 6 Cara claims in court papers that Peter told her on Christmas Day 2023 that he was leaving her. Instagram/parentingtranslator Fewer than two years later, in August 2023, Cara had the couple's fourth child. The next month, Peter 'began expressing strong desire for more independence and time away from his family to focus on his own self-care,'' the divorce papers say. Peter's Instagram page, under the username 'timetodrive5,' features the tagline 'just trying to keep the revs high.' It has dozens of posts of sports cars, race cars and luxury watches, and he has nearly 17,000 followers. Cara's Instagram page meanwhile has the username 'parentingtranslator' and says she has a PhD in child psychology. 6 Peter and Cara have four children together, with the youngest just 4 months old when Peter left Cara, court papers allege. Advertisement The page, which has 135,000 followers, features parenting advice, memes and research. Peter's dad, William, retired as the head of investment entities CCA Industries and the Riverstone Group, which has interests in everything from the Kiawah Island Golf Resort in South Carolina to the posh Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, Va. He has been featured in the press through the years for his philanthropic work, donating tens of millions of dollars to cancer research and to education. William was also appointed to the UVA board by former Virginia Gov. George Allen and again by ex-Gov. Bob McDonnell. Advertisement His son filed for divorce from Cara in January 2025, court records show. Peter admitted to the affair in his response to Cara's allegations in her own documents. 6 Peter is known for his love of the finest things in life. Instagram/timetodrive5 The estranged couple was hitched in 2014 and have two daughters, ages 2 and 9, and two sons, ages 5 and 7, court papers show. They have a prenup agreement. Advertisement Cara is seeking half of their marital assets — including from their companies — child support and $500,000 to pay lawyers and experts as she fights the divorce case, the filings show. They currently share custody of their children after working out an agreement on that front in Feb. 27, 2024, the filing says. A rep for Cara and a representative for Peter separately declined to comment. Lombard did not return Post requests for comment. Peter filed a motion last month to seal the divorce case, which Cara's side is opposing.

'Real Housewife' blasts Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom for lack of 'empathy' in legal feud over $15M mansion
"Real Housewives of Dallas" alum Kameron Westcott is breaking her silence on the bitter five-year legal battle between her family and Katy Perry over the sale of a $15 million Montecito mansion. In 2020, Kameron's father-in-law, Carl Westcott — a U.S. Army veteran and the founder of 1-800-Flowers — filed a lawsuit against Perry's business manager, Bernie Gudvi (who represented Perry in the July 2020 sale of the Santa Barbara-area mansion), after attempting to rescind the deal he made to sell his 8.9-acre estate to Perry for $15 million. At the time, Carl sought a rescission of contract after claiming he "lacked capacity" to sign the transaction due to a recent surgery and brain disorder. After a five-year feud, Perry will take the stand later this month, and testify about the claim that she lost out on years of rental income due to the litigation. Kameron and the rest of the Westcott family will also be in attendance. "We never, ever, ever even wanted to have to go to court," Kameron said, who is married to Carl's son, Court. "I mean, to be honest, we all always wanted to settle with her, and we never wanted to be in this position. Especially when my father-in-law has Huntington's disease and dementia. This is the last thing we want to do and deal with." "It's extremely hard on everyone. My husband has to take care of everything now with his brother and my father-in-law can't speak for himself at all because of his condition," she added. "And now the family has inherited this horrible situation, and it's just so heartbreaking that we have to deal with this while my father-in-law is in memory care and bed, so we're in this horrible lawsuit that's been going on for five years. My poor father-in-law is sitting in bed and can't even get out, can't even hold a glass of water or feed himself or can't even talk. So it's just awful dealing with all this at once." In November 2023, Judge Joseph Lipner ruled that Gudvi was entitled to the sale of the Montecito home purchased on Perry's behalf in 2020. At the time, Lipner explained that the court did not find Wescott's psychiatrist expert credible, in his ruling obtained by Fox News Digital. "Wescott's primary trial evidence on lack of capacity was the analysis and testimony of his retained expert, which the Court did not find credible or persuasive," Lipner wrote in the court docs. "On the other hand, significant evidence showed that Wescott had capacity to enter into the contract. This evidence includes the testimony of percipient witnesses who interacted with Westcott during the days he negotiated and signed the contract; Westcott's written communications during those same days, showing him to be coherent, engaged, lucid, and rational; and the medical reports of Westcott's doctors, none of whom found he lacked capacity to engage in any action before the sales contract or for over a year afterwards." The trial was split into two parts by the judge. The damages phase took place last year and the penalty phase is scheduled for later this month. While Perry has been ordered to take the stand, the Westcott family is also pushing for the singer's ex, Orlando Bloom, to testify. "He said to our property manager at the estate sale that he was 'in charge of repairs.' That makes him a fact witness," Chart Westcott, the veteran's son, claimed to Fox News Digital. "If she's claiming damages for repairs she had to do, and he was in charge of repairs, that sure makes him fact witness," Chart added, "If you look on Daisy Dove B, the LLC that owns the house, he's listed as a manager of that entity. She's not." Bloom, who split from Perry earlier this year, was served a subpoena and named in the joint witness list. Chart believes the "best case scenario" for his family is if "the judge tells her to pound sand, and she doesn't get any damages, and she shouldn't because she's made out of this like a bandit." "It's really not about the money," he insisted. "It's about whether celebrities play by the same rules as the rest of us. The rules shouldn't bend just because you're famous." According to the Daily Mail, the judge said that he only needed the testimony of the contractors and questioned how Bloom's testimony would benefit. "Why do we need Mr. Bloom to (give testimony), other than making this a celebrity circus?" the judge said during Friday's hearing. Perry, however, was ordered to appear at the six-day, non-jury trial, which is set to begin Aug. 21. "I don't think they have empathy at all. I think this is all about material items for them," Kameron said of Bloom and Perry. "They have absolutely no empathy for other people, because if they did, they would try to settle and close this and move on, but they don't have empathy for other people, and they don't care about their elders." "I hope this never happens to any of their family members," she continued. "I truly don't. I don't wish any harm on any of their family and I just hope one day they realize that they need to have empathy for other people and this can happen to their parents too." "It's exhausting. It's like, just be done with this. Why do people do this? It's just upsetting and disturbing to me. There's so many more things in this world we could be doing with our money and time." At the end of the day, Kameron said she and her family are ready to put this behind them in hopes of giving Carl some peace. "We just want to be done with this, and we want to move on, and we want my father-in-law to have peace and to not have to deal with this and to let him rest in peace," she said. "I honestly think he's holding on his last few days just to try to be a part of this, and he's fighting." "He is a fighter, let me tell you that. He is hanging on for his dear life, but it's time for him to rest and pass away and not have to worry about what we're going through to fight for him." Representatives for Perry and Bloom did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
