We were fortunate enough to speak with Hodge earlier this year at San Diego Comic-Con, where he talked about his lifelong dream of playing a superhero, even if it meant having to overcome his fear of heights to take on the role of “Hawkman.” Fortunately, it’s doubtful that Hodge will have to do much high flying in “Cross,” but chasing down murderers is certainly in his future. Variety reports that “Cross” has been in the works dating back to January 2020, but the project is finally coming to fruition. Ben Watkins (“Hand of God,” “Wu-Tang; An American Saga,” “Truth Be Told”) is serving as the showrunner for the series, and will be writing and executive producing as well. In addition to his starring performance, Hodge is also producing on the show.
