Godfather of Harlem Season 3 Release Date and Time

Season 3 of Godfather of Harlem is expected to release around March 2023 on EPIX and HULU.

The streaming network has already confirmed that there will be a total of ten episodes in this season with an average runtime of 55 minutes. A TV show creation requires effort from the creators, cast, and crew members.

Whenever a show gets a renewal, the creators are under pressure to make another successful installment. Moreover, the role of casting members plays a pivotal role that can make or break the series.

The whole production team carries out everything cautiously and this is the reason why a new season release can take up to months or even years like Beetlejuice 2, another awaited sequel which hasn’t released yet.

But this EPIX original series is special and creators are working hard to release another season around March 2023 inside the United States.

The staff members are motivated with the fortuitous success of the show’s second season and they are working day & night to bring another season as soon as possible.

What will happen in Godfather of Harlem season 3?

Season 2 was about seizing the control of the French Connection pipeline that run from Marseilles to NYC. Bumpy did the acquisition very well by taking inspiration from Malcolm’s message on Black economic nationalism.

The upcoming season will be focusing more on the family of Bumpy and Malcolm X as season 2 finale has already covered the 1960s when criminal underworld was on the rise. Also, Johnson will try to bring his gang members back from the prison.
