Exclusive: Cross Season 2 Cast Interviews
Now playing on Prime Video is Season Two of Cross with the first three episodes on February 11, followed by weekly installments leading up to the season finale on March 18, 2026.
Created by executive producer and showrunner, Ben Watkins, Cross is a complex twisted thriller set in Washington, D.C. that follows Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge), a brilliant homicide detective and forensic psychologist with an uncanny ability to get inside the minds of killers in order to stop them. The first season generated more than 40 million viewers globally over its first 20 days, which established Cross as a breakout hit for Prime Video.
Season Two pushes the series into a bolder, more dangerous chapter as billionaire business titan Lance Durand (Matthew Lillard) calls the FBI for protection after receiving a death threat — one that links him to the murder of a billionaire playboy. Detective Alex Cross and FBI Agent Kayla Craig (Alona Tal) lead a new joint mission to protect Durand and to find the killer, who leaves behind gruesome clues. Meanwhile, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), Cross’ partner and longtime best friend, makes an unexpected connection.
The Cross universe expands with standout new cast members Matthew Lillard, Jeanine Mason, and Wes Chatham, each bringing a commanding presence to the series, alongside returning stars Isaiah Mustafa, Alona Tal, Samantha Walkes, Juanita Jennings, Caleb Elijah, Melody Hurd, Ashley Rios, Deidrie Henry and Johnny Ray Gill.
Episode 3 and 4 was directed by Stacey Muhammad.
In addition to Watkins, who also appears in a recurring role this season, and Hodge, Cross is executive produced by Sam Ernst, Jim Dunn, J. David Shanks, Aiyana White, Craig Siebels, Owen Shiflett, James Patterson, Bill Robinson, and Patrick Santa.
