AMAZON's CROSS
  • Ryan Eggold and Isaiah Mustafa will co-star on the upcoming drama starring Aldis Hodge. Eggold currently stars in NBC's New Amsterdam, which ends after five seasons early next year. Mustafa starred for three seasons in Freeform's Shadowhunters and in the 2019 film It Chapter 2.
  • 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. He is 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 Alex Cross (Hodge), Ramsey soon becomes a formidable adversary.
  • Mustafa will play John Sampson, also known as "Two-John" and "Man-Mountain." He is Alex's partner on the force and best friend of 30years. Full of swagger and larger than life, he believes that Cross is at a crisis point and needs to seek professional help.
