BMF Season Two for STARZ, STARZPLAY

The original crime series BMF, from executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, has been renewed for a second season on STARZ and STARZPLAY.

BMF is set against the backdrop of 1980s Detroit, Michigan, and tells the story of the real-life Flenory family. The series premiered internationally last month and streams across Europe, Latin America and Japan, with new episodes available every Sunday.

Inspired by the true story of two brothers who rose from the decaying streets of southwest Detroit and gave birth to one of the most influential crime families in the U.S., BMF sees Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory reach beyond the drug trade and into the world of hip-hop. It is produced through Jackson’s G-Unit Film and Television in association with Lionsgate Television for STARZ.

BMF stars Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., the son of Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory; Da’Vinchi (The Way Back, grown-ish); Russell Hornsby (Fences, The Hate U Give); Michole Briana White (Dead to Me, She Hate Me); Ajiona Alexus (Empire, 13 Reasons Why); Eric Kofi Abrefa (Blue Story, Fury); Myles Truitt (Black Lightening, The New Edition Story); and Steve Harris (The Practice, Diary of a Mad Black Woman), with Arkeisha “Kash Doll” Knight and Wood Harris (Empire, Creed) in recurring roles. La La Anthony (The Chi, Think Like a Man) and Serayah (Empire, Favorite Son) are both set as recurring guest stars.

Jeffrey Hirsch, president and CEO of STARZ, said: “Curtis ‘50 Cent’ Jackson continues to find and cultivate stories like BMF that are culturally relevant, bringing the network important untold stories that are incredibly diverse both in front of and behind the camera. Following such a strong debut, we’re excited to see what Curtis, Randy and the award-worthy cast deliver in the second season.”
