Hodge is the third actor to play Cross
Plot
A 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 played him in 1997’s Kiss the Girls and again in the 2001 sequel Here Comes the Spider; and Tyler Perry as the title character in 2012’s Alex Cross, which was a box office smash and led Lionsgate to scrap its planned sequel, Double Cross.
It’s definitely something I wanted to do and did… a lot
Although I’d never read any of James Patterson’s book source material, I had heard of Alex Cross long before this TV show was made. Aldis Hodge is an up-and-coming and underrated actor, and he’s absolutely stunning as Alex Cross.
He investigates the victims to better understand who murdered them
The series tells the story of Cross, an award-winning homicide detective and forensic psychologist in Washington, D.C. 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 tries to be great at both. At least that is what you want from a show, to invest in the story and never get bored.
