Mayans M.C. Plot and Cast

It’s all change in Mayans MC should the show return for season five, with EZ embracing his position as a leader of the Santo Padre chapters of the biker gang… not that he’s going to be a particularly fair or good one.
Throughout season four, EZ became more cutthroat and violent – killing several people as his humanity slipped further from his grasp. Even his loved ones were mowed down in his path to the top.

Speaking to GameSpot, showrunner Elgin James said: “We haven’t really seen a benevolent leader before.
“We haven’t seen someone that operates on love for his brothers. Marcus operated this machine, but then look at how people would just drop like flies and Sons of Anarchy, you know, people would just drop.”
This is probably the last thing they need considering there’s a growing war between the Mayans and Sons of Anarchy.

Angel had reached his limit with his brother, sparking a row between them that could end up going south pretty quickly, going head-to-head in a tense confrontation.

When Mayans MC returns for season five, it just wouldn’t be the same without the leading brothers whose story sets the backdrop of everything we see. So JD Pardo (who plays EZ Reyes) and Clayton Cardena (Angel) will be back for more. Other stars we’re expecting to hear more of include Sarah Bolger (Emily Thomas), Carla Baratta (Adelita), and Emilio Rivera (Marcus).
