“If my body can take away, I’m ready to go”: Does Alan Richson make his own waterfalls?

After the Prime Video, Alan Riccson was impressed with his construction and his physical obligation in action scenes. From neglect to systematic use, the actor likes to get involved in his waterfalls, and Season 3 is no exception.

This time, this time is trying to get bare battles, exile, and brutal clashes. But how far does it go?

“I want each battle to be authentic. If my body can, I’m ready to go there”Says Richson in the season’s press. This concern for realism has forced the actor to take himself out, especially for the duel against Paul, more than 2.18 meters of colossus intended by Olivier Richter and which, despite his impressive length, was also specially prepared for the series.

Intensive training for realistic battles

In order to maintain the rhythm of the action scenes, Alan Richson spent intensive training with Ryan Taran, his waterfall coordinator and its lining. “Ryan is constantly pushing me to improve my technique. During the strike of the actors in 2023, we used free time to improve my movements“He explains.

This detailed preparation is essential to prevent damage and to fight more trustworthy. “Reacher fans are waiting for cruel and realistic clashes. We spent months to offer them the best“, Highlights Richson. According to Buster Reeves, the waterfall coordinator, this season’s choreographs are the most in demand in the series.

Attempts to fight scenes, even for Richson

Despite all his preparation, Alan Richson did not avoid unauthorized shots and bumps. “This season has made me look like never before. I hugged a real blow and after a few scenes it was difficult to recover“He says. A particular scene pointed out: his confrontation against Paul, which needed some rare intensity.

Olivier Richters, who portrays this strong adversary, testifies the difficulty of filming: “I didn’t know how physical it would be. Alan and I have finished the emptied after each power” Richson’s confirmed situation: ”We can repeat when we send you 150 kilos colossus, we feel it!“

Participation that forces you to admire

If Alan Riccson realizes most of his scratches, some remain a liner team for safety reasons. “We often spin on some of the different angles, so physical wearing and tears are huge“Explains Buster Reeves. Some scenes, such as violent drop or risky influence, require the intervention of experienced professionals.

But it does not change the obligation of the actor who wants the viewer to give the most authentic performance. “My goal is to make people feel every shot, each tension in a quarrel. If I can do it myself, I will do it“, Provides Richson.

One thing is confident: Reacher season 3 has to report unprecedented intensity clashes.
