Prime Video’s 'Cross' Tops Nielsen Streaming Charts, Edging Out Marvel’s 'Deadpool & Wolverine'

The Alex Cross-inspired series led with 1.36 billion minutes viewed in its debut week, narrowly surpassing the Marvel hit's 1.34 billion minutes on Disney+.

• Prime Video’s 'Cross,' an adaptation of James Patterson’s Alex Cross novels starring Aldis Hodge, debuted as the most-streamed program for the week of Nov. 11-17 with 1.36 billion minutes viewed.
• 'Deadpool & Wolverine,' the Marvel team-up movie on Disney+, secured the second spot with 1.34 billion minutes, though its shorter runtime suggests it may have had a larger viewer count overall.
• Netflix’s 'Outer Banks' ranked third with 1.17 billion minutes streamed following the release of the second half of its fourth season.
• HBO’s 'The Penguin,' based on DC Comics and available on Max and HBO, made its first appearance on Nielsen’s acquired series chart after its finale, with 595 million minutes viewed during the week.
• Nielsen streaming rankings only account for U.S. audiences viewing on TV screens, excluding mobile and international data, offering a partial snapshot of overall viewership.
