'Reacher' co-star Maria Sten

Brooklyn Magazine: The Podcast

The hit Amazon series “Reacher" just wrapped its second season and has been re-upped for a third — and coming back with it is the character Frances Neagley, played by Maria Sten. Neagley is Jack Reacher’s colleague, a retired U.S. Army Master Sergeant, his confidante and in many ways his equal. Sten herself is just as fascinating as Reacher, and has the added benefit of not being a fictional character. She was born in Copenhagen to Danish and Congolese parents. She’s a writer, dancer, gymnast, a kick-boxing horseback-riding beauty pageant-winner who lives here in Brooklyn. So today Sten joins us to talk about “Reacher,” what we know about season three, her own background and … revenge stories.
