Hodge is the third actor to portray Cross

The TV series adaptation of James Patterson’s novels about the complex and brilliant detective Alex Cross. He follows in the footsteps of Morgan Freeman, who first portrayed him in 1997’s Kiss the Girls and again in the 2001 sequel Along Came a Spider; and Tyler Perry as the title character in the 2012 film Alex Cross, which bombed at the box office and led Lionsgate to cancel a previously planned sequel, Double Cross.

It’s definitely something I knew I wanted to do and dida lot

While I’ve never read any of the source material for the James Patterson books, I’ve heard of Alex Cross long before this TV show was made. Aldis Hodge is a budding and underrated actor and he kills it as Alex Cross.

He studies the victims to better understand who murdered them

The series follows Cross, an award-winning DC homicide detective and forensic psychologist. Here, he tracks down a serial killer with his partner, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), who also has ties to his past.

The best thing about this show is that it is never boring

In addition to being a detective, he is also a family man and is determined to be great at both. That is the least you want from a show, to make you invest in the story and never get bored.

Cross does that
