Reacher: Alan Ritchson Enters Dungeons & Dragons Universe (VIDEO)

Taking to Instagram, Reacher star Alan Ritchson shared a look at how his and his sons' first Dungeons & Dragons campaign went.


While the second season of Prime Video and writer & showrunner Nick Santora's Reacher continues captivating viewers, Alan Ritchson & the team are already hard at work bringing the third season to life. But even as busy as his life is (let's not forget those Batman rumblings), Alan Ritchson still finds the time for some personal time and some family time. Normally, we don't cover the "family time" posts out of respect – but this one, we couldn't pass up. Why? Because Ritchson shared a look at his and his son's first experience playing Dungeons & Dragons – and it came courtesy of production designer, filmmaker & dungeon master Burns Burns.

"My boys and I were finally introduced to Dungeons and Dragons with the help of the best dungeon master I know, @burns2burns – had an unforgettable time," Ritchson shared, along with looks at their campaign. "It's improvisational storytelling at its finest, and now it's all my kiddos want to do. Such a great way to bond if you have little ones. Thank Burns Burns. The quest will continue." Here's a look at Ritchson's overview of how their first Dungeons & Dragons experience went:

Reacher: A Season 2 Overview

Based on bestselling author Lee Child's 11th book in the series (Bad Luck and Trouble), Reacher sets out to find answers (and a lot of revenge) when members of his old military unit turn up dead. Serinda Swan (Coroner), Ferdinand Kingsley (The Sandman), and Robert Patrick (Peacemaker) have joined the cast as series regulars for the second season. In addition, Domenick Lombardozzi (Magnum P.I.), Luke Bilyk (DeGrassi: The Next Generation), Dean McKenzie (Shooter), Edsson Morales (Black Summer), Andres Collantes (Two Sentence Horror Stories), Shannon Kook-Chun (The 100), Ty Victor Olsson (Supernatural), Josh Blacker (See), and Al Sapienza (Coroner) are set to guest star. Maria Sten will return as Frances Neagley, with Shaun Sipos playing David O'Donnell.

Swan's Karla Dixon served with Reacher in the Army's unit of Special Investigators. She's an extremely intelligent private investigator who has no problem holding her own in a fight against men much larger than she is. Kingsley's A.M. is what Homeland Security calls a "ghost;" he operates under a number of aliases and can pass for any nationality. Money is his only motivation, and he'll work for the highest bidder.

Patrick's Shane Langston is a streetwise former NYPD detective with a questionable track record who is now head of security for a private defense contractor. Lombardozzi's Guy Russo is a tough NYPD detective who's investigating a case that involves several of Reacher's former Army cohorts. Olsson's Saropian is a brutal professional hitman who is charged with following members of Reacher's old elite military squad. Blacker's Hortense Fields is a Lt. Colonel in the Army who oversees Reacher's Elite 110th – Special Investigator's Unit. Sapienza's Marsh is a formidable lieutenant with the NYPD.

As previously reported, the rest of Reacher's former Special Investigator Task Force includes Bilyk as Calvin Franz, McKenzie as Stan Lowery, Morales as Manuel Orozco, Collantes as Jorge Sanchez, and Kook-Chun as Tony Swan. The series is produced by Amazon Studios, Skydance Television & Paramount TV Studios, with Child also serving as an executive producer with showrunner Nick Santora. In addition to Santora and Child, the series is executive produced by Don Granger, Scott Sullivan, and Adam Higgs, with David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Bill Bost for Skydance.
