How is it that The Rock was not cast for this role?

Yes but The Rock is taller, which is clearly more important to fitzy
Yes, I'm the only one.
In the books he is 6'5 and that is important the way the books are written. His size and ability to intimidate are key parts of the story. His stature dictates how people react with him. He is perceived as a threat from the word go, and that makes things harder for him at every turn.
It's an element of the series that Child makes a point to bring up constantly. Cruise is no perceived threat at first sight. I don't care how crazy-eyed or stone faced he looks, and from the trailer he is playing Reacher all wrong anyway.
