One of FX’s most popular shows, Snowfall, has just received a premiere date and it’s set to return for season 5 on Wednesday, February 23 with two episodes, TVLine reports.
Series star Damson Idris took to his Instagram to make the announcement about the crime drama returning, to the delight of fans worldwide.
Check out the new teaser up top.
Snowfall follows the character Franklin Saint, played by Idris, who sits as a burgeoning kingpin during the height of the crack epidemic who must balance his growing empire with the safety of his family and himself. The series gained heavy traction after it first premiered back in 2017 in large part thanks to Idris’ impressive acting and the compelling story it has told through four seasons. The series was created by the late John Singleton, Eric Amadio, and Dave Andron.
FX’s president of entertainment Eric Schrier shared in a statement how excited he was for the series to be returning as well.
“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,” Schrier said, per Deadline.
A teaser trailer for the new season is also set to drop on December 25.
