MGM+ Godfather of Harlem is coming to an end. Just over a year after the season four finale aired, MGM+ has announced that the show will be ending with a two-hour series finale. The series first debuted in 2019 on Epix, which was rebranded to MGM+, with Forest Whitaker starring as a 1960s New York City gangster, Bumpy Johnson. He also executive produces. 2-hour series finale synopsis revealed Bumpy Johnson faces the ultimate reckoning as the walls close in around his empire. With enemies converging from every direction—political, criminal, and personal—Bumpy must draw on every alliance, every sacrifice, and every hard lesson earned across five seasons to protect what he has built and the people he loves. The two-hour conclusion delivers the culmination of Bumpy’s extraordinary saga: a man who rose from the streets of Harlem to reshape the power structures of an entire era, and who now must decide what legacy he leaves behind. Forest will reprise his role, alongside the ensemble cast , including Ilfenesh Hadera , Antoinette Crowe-Legacy , Erik LaRay Harvey , and Rome Flynn . What Forest Whitaker says about the series ending “Playing Bumpy Johnson has been one of the greatest experiences of my career. This character, this story, and this ensemble have allowed me to explore the complexity of a man caught between ambition, loyalty, and survival. I’m grateful to Michael Wright and MGM+, Chris Brancato , 20th Television, Amazon, the entire creative team, and our extraordinary cast, for five seasons of exceptional collaboration.” – Forest Whitaker The global head of MGM+, Michael Wright , also shared a statement praising the show and making sure it gets a just ending. “ Forest Whitaker ’s portrayal of Bumpy Johnson has been nothing short of extraordinary, and this series has been a defining jewel of MGM+’s original programming slate.

This is exactly the kind of bold, character-driven storytelling that MGM+ was built to champion.” – Michael Wright Godfather of Harlem finale begins production this month The upcoming two-hour finale is set to begin filming in July in New York.
