Jack Reacher: Never Go Back is a 2016 American action thriller film directed by Edward Zwick, produced by Tom Cruise, Don Granger and Christopher McQuarrie and written by Zwick, Richard Wenk and Marshall Herskovitz. It is an adaptation of the 2013 novel Never Go Back by Lee Child. A sequel to the 2012 film Jack Reacher, the film stars Tom Cruise, Cobie Smulders, Patrick Heusinger, Aldis Hodge, Danika Yarosh and Holt McCallany. The plot follows Reacher going on-the-run with an Army Major who has been framed for espionage and reveals a dark conspiracy.

Principal photography began on October 20, 2015 in New Orleans and the film was released on October 21, 2016 in IMAX and conventional formats. It grossed $161 million worldwide against a production budget of $60 million, and received generally mixed reviews from critics.

After dismantling a human trafficking ring, former military investigator turned vigilante drifter Jack Reacher returns to his old military headquarters to meet Major Susan Turner, whom he has been working with during his travels - only to learn from Colonel Sam Morgan that Turner has been accused of espionage and detained.

Turner's attorney, Colonel Bob Moorcroft, reveals that there is evidence that Turner is involved in the murders of two soldiers in Afghanistan, but Reacher believes she is being framed. Moorcroft also reveals an old acquaintance of Reacher, Candice Dutton, has filed a paternity suit against him, claiming he is the biological father of her 15-year-old daughter, Samantha Dutton. Reacher tried to reach out to Samantha, but she rebuffs him, believing he is after her biological mother due to her past as a prostitute.
