Nick Frost’s journey to playing Rubeus Hagrid wasn’t through a typical audition. It actually started with a Christmas tradition and a suggestion from his partner that he try to ‘manifest’ landing the role.

The release of Shrinking’s third season gives us another chance to see how the two shows stack up against each other.
A great example of how the Reacher TV series diverges from the original books is the character Frances Neagley, played by Maria Sten. She’s become a fan favorite and will even star in her own spin-off show, while still appearing in the main Reacher series. Interestingly, Neagley only appears in a single book by Lee Child, which has been adapted into the show. Another adjustment made for television – Jack Reacher actually has to speak more! Despite these changes, Prime Video’s Reacher is a hit with both viewers and critics, and it shows how adaptations of books into TV series can be done successfully.
The 1998 crime drama was well-received by critics, earning a 91% ‘Fresh’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes and two Oscar nominations.

Still, many fans consider A Simple Plan to be his greatest achievement.
