The Plot…

D.C. Detective Alex Cross (Hodge) and (his best friend since childhood) Detective John Sampson (Mustafa) are placed on a task force to find a serial killer who has threatened to kill billionaire Lance Durand and is systematically murdering Durand’s business associates.  The killer leaves clues and collects fingers of the victims.

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

Cross benefits from a great cast.  Standouts are Aldis Hodge, Isaiah Mustafa (who plays my favorite character), Ryan Eggold and Johnny Ray Gill (who is a scene-stealer).

I am looking forward to season 3.

Cross: Season 2 (2026) rates 4 of 5 stars.
