That made about as much sense as casting Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher. Philips is a good actor, but a bad fit in the show.

Yep. Phillips is a good actor, but he’s a pipsqueak.
Guess there’s not a lot of great Native American actors to choose from.
And of course,Phillips is not a Indian / Native American anyhow. His mother is Filipino and supposedly his dad had a smidgen of Cherokee DNA.

And the midget man, Tom Cruise just about ruined the first Jack Reacher flic for me. 🤪

The guy playing Reacher on the Amazon series did a great job, and is much more believable than Cruise, as Reacher.
