I haven't been paying much attention to Alex Cross, mainly because it's an adaptation of a McNovel by James Patterson being directed by xXx's Rob Cohen and starring Tyler Perry, but I admit this latest batch of photos with Lost's Matthew Fox lookin' all shredded has me slightly intrigued. My god, he looks like Mickey Rourke's penis. Also, I can't tell if that's an arm or a leg he's holding, but no way's he's finishing a submission that loose. Looks like you spent too much time cutting weight and not enough time on the mats, bra.
The story finds Cross on the hunt for Michael Sullivan (Fox), a ruthless assassin who murders the Washington DC detective’s wife. Sullivan, it turns out, is an MMA fighter, and Fox has transformed himself into something that would be right at home in a fantasy adventure or possibly Hurley from Lost’s nightmares.
Ooh, a ruthless, MMA-fighting assassin. I'm sure this will be full of the kind of nuance and subtlety we've come to expect from the director of xXx. Ten bucks says he enters the ring drinking snake blood and breaks his opponent's neck.
Christian Bale would approve.
What, other forensic scientists don't carry automatic shotguns?
Whatcha thinkin' bout?

Jesus Christ, can Tyler Perry ever get away from Cross dressing? **snicker**
JackFace, we meet again.
WE HAVE TO GET JACKED, KATE.
Answering the eternal question, “What would Madonna look like if she shaved her head?”
That’s not a pin, I think he’s breaking an arm there.
Gollum’s getting precious back, the hard way.
I thought he was playing young Alex Cross, not chubby Alex Cross.
Damnit, bring back old Alex Cross.
To be fair, Cross is described in the books as looking like a young Muhammad Ali.
And Tyler Perry totally looks like an 18 month old Muhammad Ali, baby fat and all.
Tyler Perry skipped too many steps and now just names his characters the entire title of the movie.
“Not-Morgan-Freeman Alex Cross” is how the part should be listed in IMDB.
My god, he looks like Mickey Rourke’s penis.
If bodybuilders are like big leathery cocks in human form, does that make professional wrestling akin to frotting?
You know what’s interesting about him?
Tyler Perry is the opposite of Ben Affleck. He can keep acting in other people’s movies all he wants, as long as that gets in the way of him making more of his own.
I have nightmares about the way his shoulder looks.
Heh, I never noticed that he actually has those tattoos from Lost. Did he have them before Lost and they wrote them into the script or did he get them afterward? Does anyone care? Anyone?
Fox strikes me as a method guy. When the tattoos were added to the script, I assume he said “fuck it” and had them done. Guys who recognize a once-in-a-lifetime gravy train tend to dedicate.
@porkythefirst makes sense to me. He seems a bit more hardcore than I put him down for; especially after seeing how fucking ripped he is for this movie. Fair play.
Matt had the tats, the 5 stands for “party of 5″, as lame as that is…
Oh jesus, that’s sick. It’s lazy dudes for me from here on out.
Well, Hello….
*combs back hair*
*has to pry the comb loose*
Looks like something’s gone missing from BODIES… The Exhibition at the Luxor again. At least we know it wasn’t me this time.
An assassin described as “ruthless” in a press release? No way. Next you’ll tell me Alex Cross is in a race against the clock to solve this thing.
Oh, it’s so veiny . . .
Roy Nelson will argue this film doesn’t accurately depict what a true MMA fighter looks like. Mark Hunt and Mike Russow will agree.
Yeah that girl in the purple dress just hangs around the ring like that
Drinking snake blood and breaks his opponent’s neck.
That’s how I start my Mondays at the office. Though to be fair, I do have an awesome benefits package.
Heh heh, awesome package.
Is it just me, or does this whole thing look like every show on USA? The Ed Burns pic in particular had me thinking he was a new cast member on Suits.
So….um, how the hell do you get uber-ripped and uber-gaunt all at the same time? I blame GNC
What have you done to yourself, Foxy? That’s horrifying. And that you’d go to that much trouble for a Tyler Perry movie… just a bummer.
I feel like I can’t turn on the internet no more because of this picture.
who?
