"We want this thing to go for 10 seasons, but in my head, I had already made a four-year plan, and it's based on some things that I want to do to mine and pay homage to the characters that are in the Alex Cross book series," Watkins shared recently, offering some insight into his vision for the series adaptation. To make it official, we have a date announcement teaser waiting for yoy above, and a series/season overview waiting below.
Prime Video's Cross is a complex, twisted, pulse-pounding thriller created by executive producer, showrunner, and writer Ben Watkins, based on the characters from James Patterson's best-selling Alex Cross book series. The Washington, D.C. crime drama follows Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge), a brilliant homicide detective and forensic psychologist, uniquely capable of digging into the minds of murderers in order to identify and catch them.
In Season Two, Cross is in pursuit of a ruthless vigilante who is hunting down corrupt billionaire magnates. Returning for the second season are Isaiah Mustafa, Alona Tal, Samantha Walkes, Juanita Jennings, Caleb Elijah, Melody Hurd, and Johnny Ray Gill. Joining them this season are Matthew Lillard, Jeanine Mason, and Wes Chatham.
Produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Paramount Television Studios, the streaming series is executive-produced by Watkins, Hodge, Patterson, Sam Ernst, Jim Dunn, J. David Shanks, Aiyana White, Craig Siebels, Owen Shiflett, Bill Robinson, and Patrick Santa.
