We were joined on the Popternative show by Isaiah John and Gail Bean to discuss the final season of FX’s Snowfall which premiered on February 22. Isaiah plays Leon, Franklin’s (Damson Idris) long time friend, and Gail plays Wanda who first appeared in season 2 as Leon’s girlfriend addicted to drugs.

Snowfall Season 6 Logline
In the sixth and final season of FX’s Snowfall, a civil war threatens to destroy the Saint family. Franklin (Damson Idris) is faced with losing everyone he loves and everything he’s built, and getting through it will mean out-maneuvering the KGB, the DEA and the CIA, as well as avoiding the LAPD’s corrupt C.R.A.S.H units. When everyone has their backs against the wall, who will they become in order to survive?

In our interview, Isaiah and Gail discuss the emotions behind filming the final season, their characters’ growth, and what we can expect throughout the season. Gail describes Wanda as fun and someone everyone roots for: “I believe they see parts of themselves, their friends, aunts, mothers, neighbors, so they know her.” Isaiah explains the importance of self reflection which is a huge part of the series and something we see in Leon throughout as well.

Watch the full interview with Isaiah John and Gail Bean below.

New episodes of Snowfall premiere on FX on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET and can be streamed Thursdays on Hulu.
