Jack Reacher – coming soon! And that’s all you’re going to see from this new international poster for the movie which is set to open later this year. Oh, sorry, one green eye is also there, and I’m sure that Tom Cruise fans will appreciate this close-up image. You can even put your lips on your screen and pretend you’re Scientology-approved Yolanda Pecoraro, or…someone like that! Be creative!
