*We caught up with “Snowfall” stars Isaiah John and Gail Bean to dish on their characters’ BIG moments this season (the 3/1 and 3/8 episodes) as well as what fans can expect from the sixth and final season of the critically acclaimed drama series.
Created by the late-great John Singleton, “Snowfall” explores how crack began. Per the official synopsis: “Over the course of five seasons, FX’s Snowfall has chronicled how an off-the-books CIA operation contributed to the destruction rock cocaine leveled upon the vibrant community of South-Central L.A.”
It’s October 1986 in this sixth and final season,” the synopsis continues, “as civil war threatens to destroy the Saint family. Franklin (Damson Idris) is desperate, forced to rob his Aunt Louie (Angela Lewis) and Uncle Jerome (Amin Joseph) after being wiped out by former CIA officer Teddy McDonald (Carter Hudson). Meanwhile, Louie has taken over Franklin’s role as Teddy’s sole buyer, undercutting her nephew and creating a competing empire in the process.”
“He’s got to survive,” series co-creator and executive producer Dave Andron tells TVLine about Franklin. “There’s always been an element of danger to what he’s doing, but he needs to go after the CIA and Teddy to get that money back. The stakes are so high. He’s got a child on the way. He’s really in it, and we’ll have to see who he is, what he’s willing to do.”

John Singleton passed away a few months before the Season 3 premiere in 2019. Andron says the ending of “Snowfall” will honor the beloved director.
“I think we finished telling the story in a really surprising and inevitable way,” he shared. “It’s really emotional, and I think it’s really satisfying, and I think that’s what he would have wanted. I believe he’d be really happy with where we landed.”
Isaiah and Gail also teased in our exclusive interview that fans will be pleased with how the final season honors Singleton. Check out what the pair had to say about it via the video below.
