Aldis Hodge and Matthew Lillard Tease a Darker, More Intense Season 2 of Cross

Detective Alex Cross is back for another pulse-pounding case—and this time, he's going head-to-head with a billionaire who might not be as innocent as he seems. Aldis Hodge returns as the brilliant forensic psychologist navigating a morally complex investigation, while Matthew Lillard joins the cast as Lance Durand, an Elon Musk-type tech mogul caught in the crosshairs of a vigilante targeting corrupt billionaires. With themes of wealth inequality, vigilante justice, and the question of whether doing bad things for the right reasons can ever be justified season 2 of Cross raises the stakes in every way. We sat down with Hodge and Lillard to talk about the show's timely resonance, the cat-and-mouse dynamic between their characters, and what it takes to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
