‘Godfather of Harlem’ season 3 premieres January 15 on MGM+. The series revolves around crime boss Bumpy Johnson, played by Forest Whitaker, who in the early 1960s returned from 11 years in prison to find the neighborhood he once ruled in shambles.
In the highly-anticipated third season, Bumpy continues to battle for control of Harlem. However, he’ll face threats to the throne, namely the Cuban Mafia from neighboring Spanish Harlem. Taking on the Cuban mob will put Bumpy, his loved ones, and his community in the crosshairs of not only the rival Italians, but ruthless Latin assassins and, ultimately, the CIA. Godfather of Harlem is a collision of the criminal underworld and the civil rights movement during one of the most tumultuous times in American history.
The series also stars Ilfenesh Hadera, Lucy Fry, Antoinette Crowe-Legacy, Erik LaRay Harvey, Jason Alan Carvell, Michael Raymond-James, and Yul Vasquez. See more photos of the show in our gallery now.
