One of my favorite aspects of Reacher is its sense of humor. The show, which recently premiered its third season on the 2025 TV schedule, knows how to laugh at itself, and I always love to see it. One of the best examples of that this season comes by way of a running gag about Alan Ritchson’s character trying and failing to get sleep.

In a new GQ profile, Ritchson ponders a future in politics and tries to make sense of his Christian critics: "I doubt that's going to be part of the conversation when I'm standing at the pearly gates!

Alan Ritchson joins TODAY's Jenna Bush Hager and guest co-host Justin Sylvester to talk about Season 3 of "Reacher,” how he stays in shape for the role and how people are surprised to learn he's different from his on-screen character.
