Prime Video is bringing back Cross for another intense season, with Aldis Hodge returning as D.C. detective and forensic psychologist Alex Cross. The streaming service confirmed that Season 2 will premiere on February 11, 2026.
Fans also got a first look at the new season during the show’s panel at New York Comic Con, where a teaser trailer and new casting announcements were revealed.
The series, based on James Patterson’s best-selling novels, follows Cross as he dives deep into the minds of killers, a gift that often takes a personal toll. This new chapter will see him hunting down a mysterious vigilante who targets powerful and corrupt billionaires.
In the teaser, viewers hear Special Agent Kayla Craig, played by Alona Tal, warn, “I’ve never seen anything like this,” as chaos erupts across Washington, D.C. The clip teases car chases, shootouts, and an emotional journey for Cross as he faces both a dangerous new enemy and his own inner demons.
