Sascha Penn and the matriarch of the Starz series talk to The Hollywood Reporter about how the lingering question around mother and son will play into the fifth and now final season.

Raising Kanan" will conclude with Season 5 after a major character's death in the Season 4 finale, which premiered at midnight Friday. Shameik Moore joins the Season 5 cast.

When the show returns, one of its lead stars won’t be back, and it’s none other than Patina Miller, who plays our favorite hustling mama, Raquel Thomas, aka Raq, the website reports. This pretty much confirms what we all feared when the screen fades to black with her son Kanan ( MeKai Curtis) pointing a gun at her and we hear one single gunshot.
