Crime on Prime: An Evening with the Casts of Cross and Scarpetta

Mar 02, 2026

Two of Prime Video’s most anticipated crime series, Cross and Scarpetta, come together for a rare, immersive event celebrating the enduring power of crime storytelling.

Moderated by Anne Marie Green (CBS News/48 Hours), this intimate conversation features Aldis Hodge (Executive Producer), Matthew Lillard and Ben Watkins (Showrunner/Executive Producer) from Cross, alongside Nicole Kidman (Executive Producer), Jamie Lee Curtis (Executive Producer), Patricia Cornwell (Author/Executive Producer), and Liz Sarnoff (Showrunner/Executive Producer) from Scarpetta. Together, they dive into why crime narratives continue to captivate audiences across books and screens. From razor-sharp suspense to unforgettable characters, the best crime stories entertain while illuminating the darkest corners of human nature and society — gripping us with addictive plots.

Featuring exclusive clips from both series, the discussion explores what fuels our obsession with crime fiction, how suspense is crafted across different mediums, how iconic characters evolve over time, and what our favorite detective stories ultimately reveal about us.
