FX Orders “Untitled Snowfall Spinoff” Drama Series

FX has placed a series order for the Untitled Snowfall Spinoff from acclaimed producer Malcolm Spellman and the producers of Snowfall, Dave Andron, Thomas Schlamme, Julie DeJoie, Michael London, and Trevor Engelson announced today by Nick Grad, President, FX Entertainment. The series will be available on Hulu.

Set in ’90s Los Angeles, soon after the end of the original series, a recovering addict strives to take West Coast rap mainstream – while gang wars erupt and record labels move to exploit hip hop culture for their own gain.

“This new series takes us back to one of the most formative eras in music with the birth of the West Coast rap revolution,” said Grad. “We worked with Malcolm Spellman on the documentary series Hip Hop Uncovered, and he has encyclopedic knowledge of this material. This is a breakout starring role for Gail Bean and, as always, Isaiah John is terrific along with the ensemble cast. Snowfall was one of the most successful FX dramas ever, and we’re excited that Dave Andron, Thomas Schlamme, and other veterans of the Snowfall creative team are on board.”

The new drama stars Gail Bean and Isaiah John, two veterans of Snowfall, who are joined by Asante Blackk, Peyton Alex Smith, and Simmie Sims III.

The Untitled Snowfall Spinoff is executive produced by Malcolm Spellman, Dave Andron, Thomas Schlamme, Julie DeJoie, Michael London, and Trevor Engelson. The series is produced by FX Productions.
