.DamsonIdris has turned SnowfallFX’s drug kingpin Franklin Saint into one of the best antiheroes on TV
Seven years later, Idris is swimming comfortably in the deep end, at least by Hollywood measures. Now 30, the actor has turneds drug kingpin Franklin Saint — a wide-eyed teenager who quickly becomes the biggest distributor of rock cocaine in the world — into one of the best antiheroes on TV. His “try me” head tilts, calculating demeanor and sweaty, stress-induced meltdowns catapultedto the most watched series on FX in 2021 — two years after Singleton died as a result of a stroke.
By Idris’ account, he’s never actively pursued these starry social connections. “The best thing about my life, I haven’t reached out to any of these circumstances, so I know it’s genuine,” says Idris. “The only person I ever begged was John Singleton. And I begged him because I said, ‘Hey, if I get this part, I promise you, I won’t let you down.’ And, hopefully, I haven’t.”showrunner and co-creator Dave Andron recalls being floored by Idris’ audition tape.
The premiere episode of season five is set in the summer of 1986, a 15-month time jump from where season four ended. Franklin Saint and his family, who have become multimillionaires by distributing rock cocaine, have it all: private jets, penthouses, matching horses. But they also have the CIA breathing down their necks, and must tread lightly to manage rival gangs and even their own egos.
