But he's too pretty and too soft for McGee. Clint Eastwood would have been perfect forty years ago. Today, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, Matthew McConaughy, even Channing Tatum, might fit the role. But then, you'd need a good script and I'm not sure the books are adaptable.

I remember all the wailing when Cruise was tapped to play Jack Reacher, but he pulled it off just fine. I don't like Cruise, but he's one helluva fine actor.
