‘Cross’ is proving to be a potent hit on Amazon’s Prime Video.
Anchored by Aldis Hodge, the show follows a detective / forensic psychologist – who dually looks to avenge his wife’s murder and solve a bigger mystery.
Based on famed author James Patterson‘s iconic novel character “Alex Cross,” the show – which co-stars the likes of Isaiah Mustafa, Juanita Jennings, and Alona Tal – has been smashing out of the gate.

Prime Video announced that the show has bulldozed past the 25 million views mark within days of its release.
It occupies the #1 slot on the worldwide TV chart on the platform.
As reported, ‘Cross’ renewed for season 2 before it premiered.
A testament, no doubt, to Prime’s commitment to the show.
This series was off the chain , Roller-coaster ride from start to finish, The acting was grade one
,Aldis was a beast and the support staff was excellent.
It’s a really good series. Shame it’s not entirely original. It’s adapted from the same Alex Cross novels as the Mortan Freeman films. I’ve only recently seen one of them – Kiss the Girls – it was pretty good. Hmmm but It’s like they’ve all run out of ideas. So many remakes or different versions like where’s the brand new stuff
Forever, lots of tv movies and series have been based on a book or screenplay, that’s where many of them come from. There’s nothing shameful about it, if it’s good, it’s good. It’s certainly not the same as a reboot. Besides, it was a very modernized take on Patterson’s book.
I think they turned it into a series because James Patterson’s ‘Alex Cross’ books have a following of their own. You can’t any place that has or sells books and not see one. When I was in jail for soliciting prostıtutıon in 2021, I read 3 of them and honestly it’s what made the time go by. They’re amazing!
Great series! Looking forward to Season 2!
