Starz's hit show "BMF" is making its highly anticipated return, with a fresh new cast and a time jump from the 1980s to the 1990s. This transition is not one to be missed, as season 3 continues to tell the inspiring true story of Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory and Terry "Southwest T" Flenory, two brothers who founded the influential Black Mafia Family and became legends in the world of crime.
Viewers are transported to the early 90s, where Meech's move to Atlanta in order to expand the BMF empire presents new challenges. Meanwhile, Terry remains in their hometown of Detroit, managing the business affairs and unaware of the looming dangers. He also finds himself caught in a complicated love triangle with his baby mama Lawanda and Markisha. The previous season ended on a cliffhanger with Markisha being caught in the crossfire of Terry's dangerous lifestyle. Season 3 begins with her fighting for her life and questioning if her relationship with the BMF gangster is truly worth the risk.
In an interview with BLACK ENTERPRISE, Markisha reflects on her character's journey in the new season, saying, "I think the theme for her in season 3 is, is it worth it? Is this love, is this relationship worth risking my life for?" The stakes are higher than ever for the characters as they navigate the dangerous world of organized crime.
The tumultuous marriage of Charles Flenory and Lucille Flenory continues to face challenges, but Lucille remains hopeful that her story will inspire viewers to see their own self-worth. "Lucille is really trying to find herself at this time, so she dips and dabbles in a few things and learns to empower herself," says Lucille's actress, Da'Vinchi.
Detective Bryant, who is on probation, finds himself at odds with Detective Jin as they work on opposite sides to bring down the BMF. However, they may find some common ground in their shared determination to take down the crime family.
The new season also introduces some exciting guest stars, including Grammy Award winner Lil Baby in his acting debut as "Payne," NE-YO as "Rodney 'Greeny' Green," 2 Chainz as "Stacks," Saweetie as "Keeya," and Cynthia Bailey from "Real Housewives of Atlanta" as "Gloria."
One of the most unique aspects of "BMF" is that the real-life son of Big Meech, Demetrius "Lil Meech" Flenory Jr., plays his own father on screen. In an interview, Lil Meech shares his experience working on the show, saying, "I was born in 2000, so this is all new to me. I got to learn a lot about my family that I didn't know." He also adds, "With that, I get to play my father and still live up to his name."
Don't miss the premiere of "BMF" season 3 on Friday, March 1 at 8:00 PM ET/PT on the STARZ app, all STARZ streaming and on-demand platforms. Get ready for an intense and captivating journey into the complex world of the Black Mafia Family.
