Prime Video Renews Cross for Season Three — here’s what we know

The thriller starring Aldis Hodge as Alex Cross and produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Paramount Television Studios continues its global momentum with another eight episodes.

What do we know about Cross season 3

The press release tells us the new season will continue to expand the high-stakes world of the iconic character, building on the show’s gripping storytelling and powerful performances. Nothing specific. It does remind us of the plot for season 2:

…billionaire business titan Lance Durand (Matthew Lillard) calls the FBI for protection after receiving a death threat — one that links him to the murder of a billionaire playboy. Detective Alex Cross and FBI Agent Kayla Craig (Alona Tal) lead a new joint mission to protect Durand and to find the killer, who leaves behind gruesome clues. Meanwhile, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), Alex’s partner and longtime best friend, makes an unexpected connection.

In terms of popularity, we also learn 40 million viewers watched season 1 globally in its first 20 days on Prime Video. The series ranked as the third most-watched premiere on the service in 2025, and reached #1 on Prime Video in more than 100 countries. As measured by Nielsen, the show also ranked in the Top 10 of all original series during the week of its Season Two premiere.

Season Two, which is now available to stream in its entirety on Prime Video, stars Hodge, Matthew Lillard, Jeanine Mason, and Wes Chatham, alongside returning stars Isaiah Mustafa, Alona Tal, Samantha Walkes, Juanita Jennings, Caleb Elijah, Melody Hurd, and Johnny Ray Gill.
