It was revealed last month that Aldis Hodge (Black Adam) would be starring in Amazon’s upcoming Alex Cross TV series based on the best-selling book series by James Patterson. It’s now been announced that Ryan Eggold (New Amsterdam) and Isaiah Mustafa (It: Chapter 2) will be joining him in series regular roles.
Ryan Eggold will play Ed Ramsey, “whose humble Midwest roots are the core of his irresistible charm, but he’s got elbows sharp enough to carve out space in the elite social and political circles of D.C. and New York. Ramsey is described as smooth, well-connected and devious; he also can be physically imposing when he needs to be and has some very dark secrets. While initially a fan of Cross, Ramsey soon becomes a formidable adversary.” As for Isaiah Mustafa, he will play John Sampson, “also known as ‘Two-John’ and as ‘Man-Mountain.’ He is Alex...

Ryan Eggold and Isaiah Mustafa have been cast in Amazon’s upcoming series based on James Patterson’s Alex Cross novels.
The pair join previously announced series lead Aldis Hodge in the series, which is titled “Cross.” Amazon ordered the show to series in October.
“Cross” is described as thriller mystery series. Per the official logline, “Alex Cross is a detective and forensic psychologist, uniquely capable of digging into the psyches of killers and their victims, in order to identify—and ultimately capture—the murderers.”
Eggold will play Ed Ramsey. The character is said to have “humble Midwest roots that are the core of his irresistible charm, but he’s got elbows sharp enough to carve out space in the elite social and political circles of DC and New York. Smooth, well connected, and devious, Ramsey can also be physically imposing when he needs to be – and he has some very dark secrets.

I’m a huge James Patterson fan and I love the Alex Cross novels. The first images out for the movie adaptation look pretty cool, but one casting choice concerns me.
Tyler Perry might be going for the laughs in Madea’s Witness Protection but he’s dealing with serious business as the title character in Alex Cross, based on Patterson’s I, Alex Cross. When it comes to Cross, it’s all about the acting so I’m going to have to at least see a trailer to decide if Perry is up for it. If he does well, I might even be able to get over the fact that Idris Elba doesn’t have the part as originally planned.
Matthew Fox looks totally insane as the villain so there are no worries there, but I’m not entirely thrilled with Edward Burns as Cross’ partner, Tommy Kane. People...
