Reacher star Olivier Richters dreams to be in Harry Potter (& Prime Video's God Of War is also on his wishlist)

Olivier Richters joined the cast of Prime Video’s Reacher in season 3 as the towering villain Pauline, who beats the protagonist, Alan Ritchson’s Reacher, in physical aspects. He is cast as a villain, and when he shares a screen with Reacher, viewers’ eyes are bound to get stuck on him, something that did not happen with any of the previous antagonists.

Reacher always dominated a scene, even with the villains because of his physique. However, with Richters as Pauline, season 3 witnessed Reacher go head to head with someone who is actually of his calibre in regards to physical strength and capabilities.

Talking about his role in Reacher, Richters had previously thanked Ritchson for helping him to land the role. Now that his portrayal of Pauline in the show has gained acclaim, Richters revealed in an interview with ScreenRant that he would very much like to work in Harry Potter and Prime Video’s adaptation of the PlayStation game God of War.

Olivier Richters is keen to be a part of Harry Potter and Marvel’s projects

In a recent interview with ScreenRant, Richters mentioned that since the time he had learned about the Prime Video adaptation of the game God of War, he wanted to be a part of it. Now that he has worked on a Prime Video show, he has asked his agent to see if anything can be worked out regarding the God of War project.

Talking about the same, Richters said,

“Last week it was announced by Amazon that they’re going to make God of War. Of course I want to be Kratos, but I don't believe they would ever pick me for Kratos. I'm just too darn big. But there is a God that's bigger than Kratos, and that is Týr, or also Thor. I asked my agent, “You have to pursue this for me. Amazon now knows me. Can Paulie play in God of War?” That's one of my dream roles.”

However, God of War is not the only dream project that Richters has in mind. He said,

“My other dream role is in Harry Potter–they’re going to make Hagrid, that [would] be crazy. And I still have the dream to play Colossus in Marvel–the human version. Those three are my dream rules I want to pursue.”

Richters has already worked with Marvel in Black Widow, and his other hotshot projects include Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Borderlands, and The King's Man. He was also a part of Gangs of London, which marks his television appearance before Reacher.

Reacher can be streamed on Prime Video.
