FX announced today that an order has been placed for an untitled Snowfall spinoff series from acclaimed producer Malcolm Spellman and the producers of the original series. The drama will star Gail Bean and Isaiah John, two veterans of Snowfall, joined by Asante Blackk, Peyton Alex Smith and Simmie Sims III.

The new show will be available on Hulu sometime in 2026, set in 1990s Los Angeles soon after the end of Snowfall. It will follow a recovering addict who 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 Nick Grad, President, FX Entertainment. "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."
