The actor is set to play Jacob Merrick, a small-town policeman, in a storyline based on Lee Child's 2009 novel 'Gone Tomorrow'

Entertainment Weekly can confirm that Jay Baruchel dropped out of the upcoming season 4, and Barry alum Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette has been recast in the role. The news comes only two weeks after the This Is the End star's casting was announced along with the rest of the new season 4 roles (the only confirmed returning actor is series lead Alan Ritchson).

Reacher season 4 replaces Jay Baruchel with Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette, after his exit due to personal reasons.
