But if you are still in the mood for romance, we would like to point out that several Christmas films will be released in the next few days, among which there is obviously no shortage of romantic comedies.

Alex Cross 2 (US crime TV series) – release date 11 February
Number of episodes and release calendar: 8 episodes, 3 out on Wednesday 11 February, then one per week until 3/18
Created by executive producer and showrunner Ben Watkins, Alex Cross is a gripping thriller series full of twists set in Washington DC, which follows Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge), a brilliant homicide detective and forensic psychologist, gifted with the particular ability to delve into the minds of murderers to identify and capture them. The first season attracted over 40 million viewers worldwide in its first 20 days, making Alex Cross a major Prime Video hit. The second season takes the series into a bolder and more dangerous phase, when tycoon Lance Durand (Matthew Lillard) asks for FBI protection following a death threat, which would link him to the murder of a billionaire playboy. Detective Alex Cross and FBI Agent Kayla Craig (Alona Tal) lead a new joint mission to protect Durand and find the killer, who leaves behind a series of gruesome clues. Meanwhile, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), Cross’s longtime partner and friend, makes a surprising discovery.
