Amazon Prime Video has renewed Cross for a third season. The pickup comes ahead of the March 18 Season 2 finale, continuing the series after it was previously renewed for a second season before its 2024 debut.
Principal photography on Season 3 is scheduled to run from April 6 through July 30 in Mississauga, Ontario. Creator and showrunner Ben Watkins returns as head writer, with Craig Siebels serving as co-writer and director.
Update: In March 2026, Amazon confirmed our exclusive, adding the following statement:
“From the beginning, Cross has captivated audiences with its layered characters, pulse-pounding suspense, and emotionally grounded storytelling. Aldis has delivered a definitive portrayal of Alex Cross, anchoring the series with depth, intelligence, and heart. We’re thrilled to continue this journey with Ben, our collaborators at Paramount Television Studios, and the rest of the incredible cast to bring even more of James Patterson’s iconic world to our global Prime Video audience.”
Based on the Alex Cross novels by James Patterson, the crime thriller stars Aldis Hodge as forensic psychologist and D.C. Metro homicide detective Alex Cross. The series follows Cross and his partner, Detective John Sampson, as they track some of the country’s most dangerous killers while Cross works to protect his family from the consequences of his profession.
Season 2 was released on February 11, 2026. There is no word yet on whether Season 3 is planned as the series’ final installment or if the door remains open for a fourth season.
Cross Season 3 is slated to premiere in early 2027 on Prime Video.
