Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge) with his arms crossed and a challenging look in Cross
Author James Patterson has responded to the upcoming streaming series Cross not adapting any specific books from his series Alex Cross, starring the titular detective. The forthcoming Prime Video TV show follows Alex Cross , a detective and forensic psychologist returning to his investigative work one year after his wife, Maria, was murdered.
It’s something I say when anybody is developing one of my books or characters: I much prefer the story be brand new. I was hoping the show would be a breakthrough and not dependent on the book, and it’s happened. What Patteron's Statement Says About Cross The Author Has Faith In Its Creative Team The newest adaptation of Patterson's famous book series, Cross is being developed by Ben Watkins, best known for being a writer and producer on Burn Notice and Hand of God. Given his experience working on critically acclaimed crime shows, he has the perfect skill set for the new series.
1 Since the new show won't be pulling from any direct source material, Cross could instead grab inspiration from multiple novels across Patterson's series. This would help it stand out from other ongoing series on Prime Video, such as Reacher season 3, which prioritizes an accurate storyline to the Jack Reacher book being adapted. It also means plenty of twists could transpire throughout the show, leading to a new lens on its main character unseen in the books or film adaptations so far.
