Film Adaptations/Reboot
Overall there have been three theatrical films of the Alex Cross series, all met with negative reviews, and poor box-office success, especially the newest film, Alex Cross. So far there have been two films (Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider) both met to poor box-office. Due to this, a reboot franchise was ordered. Tyler Perry was cast, his first role in a film that he doesn't direct, produce, write, etc. Despite three poorly-received films, a fourth film is in pre-production and Tyler Perry of the 2012 film will come back. The reboot franchise is based on books Cross and Double Cross (the fourth adaptation of the series).

Famous quotes containing the word film:
“Lay not that flattering unction to your soul,
That not your trespass but my madness speaks;
It will but skin and film the ulcerous place,
Whilst rank corruption, mining all within,
Infects unseen.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
