The second season of Cross is almost here. Season 2 of the Prime Video crime drama will follow Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge) as he tracks a vigilante who hunts down corrupt billionaires and premieres on February 11, 2026.

Like the first season, the second is not based directly on a specific installment of James Patterson‘s Alex Cross book series but does incorporate the characters created by the novels.

So will the third season follow suit? Here’s what we know so far.

Is Cross renewed for Season 3?

Not yet.

What will happen in Cross Season 3?

Although Cross hasn’t officially been renewed for Season 3, creator Ben Watkins has teased that he is planning for the show to run for four seasons.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter about what fans should expect from Season 2 — including the increased prominence of Kayla (Alona Tal) as a potential foil for Cross, Wakins said, “I already had a four-year plan. We want this thing to go for 10 seasons, but in my head, I had already made a four-year plan, and it’s based on some things that I want to do to mine and pay homage to the characters that are in the Alex Cross book series.”

He also teased that Season 3 will draw from some “seeds” that were planted in Season 1, which are “enhanced” in Season 2.
