BMF, the popular 50 Cent-helmed Starz series, is confirmed for a second season. In an interview with Express.co.uk, Russell Hornsby, who portrays Charles Flenory on the show, offered a peek into what we can expect from season two.

"I believe season two is going to premiere in January 2023," Hornsby said after confirming that he wrapped up filming on the new season back in June. "The whole Power universe roll-out, everybody has a plan for it. You have to give each show its own window."

As far as his character, he said audiences will have to watch to find out specifics but did offer up a bit of information. "We're going to see a very unsuspecting but different Charles Flenory this season," he said. "Charles is coming out of his shell and will be a lot more hip than last time."

Hornsby has had a two-decade career in the industry, including starring in Showtime's The Affair and Lost In Space for Netflix but he explains that BMF has increased his profile and visibility.

"It's definitely up in the cultural community and beyond," the 48-year-old actor said. "When people see me now they go 'Hey Russell Hornsby' where previously they asked, 'Aren't you that guy? I've seen your work.'"

He revealed that he had reservations about accepting the role initially until he had a conversation with showrunner Randy Huggins. “He said, ‘I need you. I need your presence. I need your manhood and the presence that you bring to all your roles to ground the show. Because we’re dealing with younger kids, younger actors, a lot of inexperienced actors, and your presence will enlighten and uplift them.’"
