Snowfall Returning 2022
On this first day of winter, it looks like there’s Snowfall in the forecast.
Snowfall’s Damson Idris is adding the title of producer to his resume. In addition to his starring role as Franklin Saint on the hit FX series, Idris will serve as a producer for the upcoming season due to premiere in 2022.
Idris (Farming, Outside the Wire) is the latest addition to the creative team on the series from the late Oscar- and Emmy-nominated director John Singleton & Eric Amadio and Dave Andron.
In the recently wrapped fourth season, business is booming. It’s January 1, 1985. Ronald Reagan has won his re-election campaign, proclaiming it is “morning again in America”. But in South Central, Los Angeles, it feels more like the sun is getting low. The demand for crack cocaine is high; and while our crew of dealers led by Franklin Saint (Idris) are benefitting greatly from the rising tide of addiction. They’re also starting to become aware of the damage the drug is doing to their people & the place they love.
Snowfall Returning 2022 Season 5
FX has set Wednesday, February 23, for the Season 5 premiere of its hit drama series co-created by the late John Singleton. The reveal comes after its fourth season was the cable net’s most-watched series of 2021.
Set in the summer of 1986, Snowfall follows Franklin Saint (Damson Idris) and his entire family, who are rich beyond their wildest dreams and on the verge of having everything they’ve ever wanted — right as the ground begins to fall out from under their feet. The sudden death of basketball star Len Bias makes the rock cocaine epidemic front-page news; the target of both Democrat and Republican lawmakers. Law enforcement is on a warpath, and the militarization of the LAPD continues; as police and politicians decide the only way to deal with this growing scourge is through force; and the creation of the new CRASH (Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums) units.
The streets of South Central Los Angeles never have been so dangerous as the Saint family navigates the police; the warring gangs and the CIA. Amidst all of this, the biggest threat the family faces is one another as they try not to let greed, resentment and ego tear them all apart.
“Snowfall is enjoying a justly deserved burst of success with Season 4, and we’re excited to follow it up with another explosive season early next year,” said Eric Schrier, President of FX Entertainment.
We cannot wait!!
