Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge) is a brilliant detective and forensic psychologist, capable of plumbing the depths of tortured minds to track down the most dangerous criminals. A loving father, his life is turned upside down by the brutal murder of his wife, a tragedy that plunges him into an obsession with finding those responsible for this horrific act. The series follows Cross as he uses his exceptional skills to navigate the twists and turns of crime, while confronting his own demons. Across eight episodes, Cross will face formidable enemies, while desperately trying to protect those he still loves.

Cross will appeal primarily to fans of crime series, but also to fans of James Patterson's best-selling novels, who have already discovered the adventures of Alex Cross in films such as The Collector. The series will also appeal to viewers who enjoy complex psychological stories, in the tradition of Mindhunter or True Detective, with a focus on the mental manipulation of criminals. The series' originality lies in its in-depth exploration of the characters and their motivations, particularly that of Cross, a man broken by tragedy but determined to see justice done. The presence of Aldis Hodge, whose charisma and depth of interpretation bring a new dimension to this iconic role, adds further appeal to this production.

Cross offers a gripping new psychological thriller. Part personal drama, part criminal investigation, this series starring Aldis Hodge promises to seduce fans of suspense and deep investigative stories. Immerse yourself in the dark and complex world of Cross, where each episode promises to keep you on the edge of your seat until the final denouement.
