First “Alex Cross” Trailer Is Here

Some time ago, there was a lot of talk online about the physical transformation actor Matthew Fox underwent in order to play the villain in “Alex Cross.” We can now see him in motion, thanks to the first trailer.

Check it out above.

Based on the novel “I, Alex Cross” by James Patterson, the film stars Tyler Perry as the leading man, in a role made famous by Morgan Freeman in “Kiss the Girls” and “Along Came a Spider.”

Fox will be playing the villain, the serial killer who has an entire town at his disposal to play sick games with, with only Cross there to stop him.

Directed by Rob Cohen, “Alex Cross” will be out in theaters later this year, in October. We have to admit that we expected this to be more of a thriller than an action movie, but we'll settle for that either way.
