We’ll be seeing more of Big L, Duffy and Derrick on the upcoming second season of Katori Hall’s Starz series P-Valley. Morocco Omari (Empire), Dominic Devore (PlayStation Girl) and Jordan M.

Trap music meets film noir in this lyrical and atmospheric series that dares to ask what happens when small-town folk dream beyond the boundaries of the Piggly Wiggly and the pawnshop.
Omari’s Big L is Uncle Clifford’s (Nicco Annan) mean-teddy-bear-lookin-ass right hand. The man who guards the safe and knows where all the bodies are buried— figuratively and literally. With the club under new ownership and new duress, Big L continues to carve out his own sphere of influence.
Devore is Duffy, the friendly neighborhood plug who moves weight across the country in his big rig. A true romantic with a heart of gold and a wandering eye, Duffy might be ready to settle down for good, but that’s much easier said than done.
Cox’s Derrick is the abusive boyfriend and baby daddy to Pynk headliner, Keyshawn, AKA Miss Mississippi (Shannon Thornton). In the wake of the disastrous Murda Night, he struggles to change for the better.
In addition to Annan and Thornton, they join
