STARZ announced today it has given the green light to BMF Season 4 before the third season premieres on Friday, March 1, at midnight on the STARZ app. On linear, the third season of the drama series will debut on STARZ at 8:00 PM ET/PT in the U.S. and 9:00 p.m. ET in Canada.
Production on BMF Season 4 is slated to begin this spring in Atlanta, Georgia. BMF is one of STARZ’s biggest series and grew its audience season over season to an average of 10.6M multiplatform views per episode.
“Fans can’t get enough of the history in the making that is BMF,” said Kathryn Busby, President of Programming for STARZ.
“We’re thrilled to start working on a new season that will continue bold storytelling of the legend of the Flenory brothers that has proven to resonate so deeply with our viewers.”
BMF season three stars returning actors Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr. as Demetrius Flenory, Da’Vinchi as Terry Flenory, Russell Hornsby as Charles Flenory, Michole Briana White as Lucille Flenory, Steve Harris as Detective Bryant, Kelly Hu as Detective Jin, La La Anthony as Markisha, Sydney Mitchell as LaWanda, and Laila D. Pruitt as Nicole Flenory.
The special guest stars include Grammy Award winner Dominique “Lil Baby” Jones, making his acting debut as Payne, NE-YO as Rodney “Greeny” Green, 2 Chainz as Stacks, Grammy-nominated artist and actress Saweetie as Keeya, and Cynthia Bailey as Gloria.
BMF is executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson through his G-Unit Film and Television production company (executive producer of the Power Universe), alongside creator, executive producer, and Detroit native Randy Huggins (Power) with showrunner and executive producer Heather Zuhlke (Power).
Anthony Wilson and Anne Clements also serve as executive producers on the series. BMF is produced through Jackson’s G-Unit Film and Television production company in association with Lionsgate Television for STARZ.
BMF continues the story of the inspiring true legends, brothers Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory (Demetrius Flenory, Jr.) and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory (Da’Vinchi), who founded one of the most influential crime families in the country, the Black Mafia Family.
We parachute into the early ’90s in season three, with Meech moving to Atlanta, hoping to grow the BMF empire in the south and rise to the top of the Atlanta drug scene. At the same time, Terry remains in the “D,” handling business there, not yet aware of all the dangers lurking around the corner.
Charles Flenory (Russell Hornsby) and Lucille Flenory’s (Michole Briana White) marriage remains on the rocks, and Detective Bryant (Steve Harris), on probation from work, and Detective Jin (Kelly Hu) find themselves on opposite sides of the law, but might find common ground in their determination to take down BMF.
Additionally, season three includes special guest stars recurring throughout the season, who cross paths with Meech and Terry in this next phase of their unbelievable journey.
