The fourth season concluded in August 2025, and multiple spinoff projects remain in development.

Cancellation Details
Starz confirmed the cancellation of 'BMF' on October 29, 2025, ending the series after its fourth season. The 10-episode final season aired earlier in the year, with the finale airing in August 2025. Created by Randy Huggins, the show was executive produced by Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson through G-Unit Film and Television, alongside Terri Kopp, Anthony Wilson, Anne Clements, and Tasha Smith.

Story and Cast
'BMF' chronicled the origins of the Black Mafia Family, a notorious Detroit-based gang from the 1980s, focusing on the Flenory brothers' journey. The Season 4 logline states: "As Meech (Demetrius Flenory Jr.) and Terry (Da’Vinchi) fight to keep their American Dream alive, staying ahead of their rivals and law enforcement takes a toll on their relationship. The brothers occasionally put aside their differences for their common goals, but the events of what happened in Mexico will change them forever."
The main cast included Demetrius Flenory Jr. as Big Meech, Da’Vinchi as Southwest T, Russell Hornsby as Charles Flenory, Michole Briana White as Lucille Flenory, Eric Kofi-Abrefa as Lamar Silas, Myles Truitt as B-Mickie, Steve Harris as Detective Von Bryant, and La La Anthony as Markeisha Taylor. Additional cast members were Sydney Mitchell and Laila D. Pruitt. Guest stars over the run included Snoop Dogg, Wood Harris, Mo’Nique, Eminem, 2 Chainz, and Saweetie.
Future Prospects
Despite the cancellation, sources indicate multiple 'BMF' spinoff projects are still in development at Starz, as previously mentioned by Jackson. The series was part of Jackson's broader portfolio at the network, including the 'Power' franchise.
