Reacher Showrunner Shares the Surprising Story Behind That Terminator 2 Reference

Reacher Season 2’s reference to Terminator 2: Judgment Day had nothing to do with the casting of Robert Patrick.In the second season of the hit Prime Video series, Patrick, who played the T-1000 in Terminator 2, played the role of Shane Langston, a foe to Alan Ritchson’s Jack Reacher. The Season 2 premiere included a cheeky reference to Terminator 2 when Frances Neagley used the alias Sarah Conner, a nod to Linda Hamilton’s Terminator franchise character. When he’s asked by a henchman, “Who’s Sarah Connor?,” Patrick’s Langston replied, “I don’t give a sh*t.” It’s a stark contrast to the character he played in Terminator 2, where killing Sarah’s son was the T-1000’s sole objective.Santora explained how the line was even in the script with another actor set to play the role. Originally, Langston was going to be played by Rory Cochrane, but Robert Patrick took over the role after Cochrane dropped out. Santora further explained how it was a total coincidence that Patrick just happened to then land the role that played into the reference to Terminator 2.
