Alan Ritchson as B.J. Blazkowicz… fans’ dream portrayal.

"Amazon hear me out": Never Mind Batman, Alan Ritchson Fans Want Him to Take Over as the Protagonist of 1 Classic Shooter that Rivalled Call of Duty for a Time

SUMMARY

Fans demand that Reacher star Alan Ritchson be cast as B.J. Blazkowicz in a movie or TV show adaptation of Wolfenstein.


The actor has also consistently expressed his desire to portray the character of Batman, something that fans wholeheartedly agree with.

Alan Ritchson has seen his stocks soar as fans request Amazon to cast the star as B.J. Blazkowicz in a TV adaptation of Wolfenstein. After the actor’s terrific portrayal of retired Major Jack Reacher in Prime Video’s Reacher, it is no wonder that Ritchson is seeing his fans call for him to take on more iconic roles.

Jack Reacher was first played by Tom Cruise in two separate movies before the TV show Reacher was released. But it is safe to say that the fans of the Jack Reacher book series have enamored themselves with Ritchson’s almost textbook-perfect portrayal of the character.

But fan expectations know no limits. Fans now want Ritchson to portray B.J. Blazkowicz, while some others believe he would be perfect as the Doom Slayer.

Alan Ritchson Seems Perfect for Wolfenstein

Alan Ritchson has a couple of iconic roles under his belt already. The actor is noted for his portrayal of the Hawk in DC’s Titans and Aquaman in Smallville. But the crown jewel of his career so far has been Reacher.

He fit the mold for Lee Child’s titular character, and fans of the book franchise loved his rendition of Jack Reacher more than Hollywood veteran Tom Cruise’s portrayal of the same.


One fan of Ritchson recently took to X to suggest that a Wolfenstein TV or movie adaptation can star the actor as the video game industry’s most famous Nazi killer. The post has since gone viral, and fans have mostly agreed with the author, although some negative voices persisted.


But the actor’s fans weren’t hearing anything about their favorite star, as this naysayer was shut down quickly by a fan. In fact, Ritchson’s political stance has fans endearing him to Batman.

However, most fans wholeheartedly agreed that they would love to have a show or movie that stars Ritchson as B.J. Blazkowicz. Some hopeful fans have even suggested that the actor should portray Doom Slayer.

Wolfenstein has given proper competition to Call of Duty: WWII, and many fans would feel that the former provides a better gaming experience. The large, muscular, dark blonde, blue-eyed, strong-jawed soldier B.J. Blazkowicz had a lot to do with the success of the game.

The Man of the Moment: Alan Ritchson

Ritchson has seen his stocks soar considerably ever since his portrayal of Jack Reacher, the ex-soldier turned vigilante/wanderer.

He has consistently expressed his desire to play Batman, and a picture of him and Henry Cavill on the sets of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare has sparked those rumors afresh.

Whether Prime Video actually sanctions a Wolfenstein show or movie remains to be seen. If fans had their way, Ritchson would be an automatic choice for Blazkowicz. But, even if a show or movie is green-lit, chances are slim that Ritchson would be cast for the role.
