The post made on August 26 features Ritchson brushing his teeth with his ripped physique on display. However, the actor jokingly mourned the loss of his “other” abs, referring to his physique with the hashtag “#grandpabod.”
“Whenever I begin to question where my other eleven abs went, I take a deep breath and remind myself… I gave birth to three children. #grandpabod,” Ritchson penned in the caption. “Please don’t let @catritchson see this post,” he cheekily added in parentheses, referring to his wife.
Needless to say, the comment section was soon flooded with laughing emojis as fans reacted to the joke. While many fans sent words of admiration over his impressive physique, several comments speculated over whether Ritchson will one day be the next live-action Batman.
The actor has previously expressed interest in playing the Dark Knight, and many fans are on board with the idea as well. Ritchson has since featured in several fan art images showing him in the iconic suit and mask. He remains a popular choice for taking on the role in a future DCU project.
Furthermore, director James Gunn has recently addressed the fan cast during a recent episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast. However, he remained tight-lipped about whether Ritchson will actually play the DC hero. “I am a big Alan Ritchson fan. Both as an actor and as a guy. Let’s just wait to see what happens,” Gunn told host Josh Horowitz.
For now, fans can look forward to seeing Alan Ritchson return as Jack Reacher in the upcoming fourth season of Prime Video’s Reacher series, which will be based on the novel Gone Tomorrow, the thirteenth book in Lee Child’s Jack Reacher series. However, the showrunners have yet to announce its official release date.
