Prime Video’s ‘Cross‘ dives into the gripping world of crime and suspense, adapting James Patterson’s best-selling novels into a pulse-pounding thriller.
Aldis Hodge stars as Alex Cross, a celebrated D.C. homicide detective and forensic psychologist, who is thrust into a chilling case involving a twisted serial killer dubbed the “Fanboy Killer.”
As Cross and his loyal partner, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), chase the sadistic murderer, his past resurfaces to threaten everything he’s rebuilt after devastating personal losses. Years prior, Cross testified against Deirdre Nolan, labeling her beyond rehabilitation, which led to her life sentence and eventual suicide. Shortly after, tragedy struck as Cross’ wife was murdered, her scarf taken—a cruel token left behind as his family endured a series of stalkings and ominous threats.
Now, one year later, a new killer emerges, and the case forces Cross to confront haunting echoes of his past. As he navigates the psychological toll of his wife’s death, the lines between his personal grief and professional duty blur. With his family still under threat and the specter of past horrors looming, Cross must summon all his skills and resilience to uncover the truth.
Aldis Hodge delivers a powerful performance as a man caught between his emotions and a relentless pursuit of justice. If you’re into gripping thrillers like The Blacklist or The Night Agent, this one’s right up your alley.
The series is now streaming on Prime Video.
