Prime Video panty-melter Aldis Hodge brought his main character energy to CultureCon where he joined tastemakers, community builders, and creatives at the special screening for upcoming detective drama CROSS followed by an exclusive afterparty.
The dapper actor was all smiles while promoting CROSS alongside co-star Isaiah Mustafa on a CultureCon panel moderated by pop culture savant Chris Witherspoon.
Described as a “complex, twisted, pulse-pounding thriller,” the buzzy series also stars Juanita Jennings, Alona Tal, Samantha Walkes, Caleb Elijah, Melody Hurd, Jennifer Wigmore, Eloise Mumford, and Ryan Eggold.
Check out the chilling trailer below:
In CROSS, Hodge steps into the shoes of Alex Cross (who was previously portrayed by Morgan Freeman and Tyler Perry)–a detective and forensic psychologist “uniquely capable of digging into the psyches of killers and their victims, in order to identify—and ultimately capture—the murderers,” per the press release.

“Bringing one of James Patterson’s most iconic literary characters to life for our global Prime Video customers was a dream come true, and we can’t wait for everyone to see Aldis Hodge’s dynamic performance as Cross,” said Vernon Sanders, Head of Television at Amazon MGM Studios, in a statement.
“Ben Watkins and his team have created something unique within the crime-thriller genre that long-time fans and newcomers alike will all enjoy. And with over thirty novels written by Patterson featuring Alex Cross as his main protagonist, it was an easy choice to bring Cross back for a second season.”
