Summary
Although the originalPoweraired its last in 2020 , I ’m delirious to return to the offence drama ’s existence from yet another angle in an upcoming Ghost and Tommy prequel — and anotherPower"Book " show reaffirm my optimistic outlook . make and produced by Courtney A. Kemp , in collaboration with Curtis " 50 Cent " Jackson , Powerlanded on Starz back in 2014 and , ultimately , ran for six successful season . WhilePower ’s casting of charactersexpanded as the serial continued , the show principally focus on James St. Patrick(Omari Hardwick ) , a ruthless dealer who goes by the alias Ghost .
Forced to navigate ever - tilt alliances and the police force ’s ongoing probe , James also does n’t have the strongest relationship with his wife , Tasha ( Naturi Naughton ) , or his shaver — Tariq , Raina , and Yasmine . However , Ghost has other compelling family relationship outside his family . Even in the wake ofPower ’s lurid endingin its serial publication finale , I still thinkTommy Egan ( Joseph Sikora ) , Ghost ’s criminal married person and good friend , is one of the show ’s best characters . That fact alone make me aroused about a Ghost and Tommy spinoff , but it ’s anotherPowershow that has given me reincarnate faith in the franchise .

Watchingall thePowerandPower Bookspinoffsis a tall order , but it ’s a must for any fan of the enfranchisement who ’s look for a complete sight of the series ' characters . In special , Power Book III : prove Kanan — a prequel to the parent series and the secondPowerspinoff commons - lit by Starz — is a must - observe crime drama . Instead of pore on Ghost and the St. Patrick family , raise Kanandelves into the former year of Kanan Star(later encounter by EP Curtis " 50 Cent " Jackson ) as he tries to get into the drug - dealing game .
In building its own earth , Raising Kananis able to stand on its own …
There ’s a lot that process aboutRaising Kanan . For starters , the show is packed with power plant performance , and does a majuscule chore of complot its 1990s mise en scene . The spinoff does n’t just assure a good standalone news report , it expands thePoweruniverse and intensify its core characters . It ’s no marvel thatRaising Kananseason 4is already on the way . In building its own cosmos , raise Kananis able to stick out on its own ; being a spinoff or a prequel does n’t set the show . For me , that ’s a mark of immenseness — and a wonderful sign for futurePowerspinoffs .
The Power enfranchisement just announce a new spinoff , and with Book IV : Force fare to an destruction , I have one major vexation about the show ’s conclusion .
Power’s Ghost & Tommy Prequel Could Be Even Better Than Raising Kanan
The Power Prequel Can Focus Fully On The Franchise’s Main Characters
Having survive the original show ’s 6th - time of year conclusion , Tommy already star inPower Book IV : Force , but the character is set to trim up in yet another dealership outing . LikeRaising Kanan , the nextPowerspinoff will also be a prequel , thoughit will center on Ghost and Tommy , showing how the best ally metand pay off into the drug game . Not only is Ghost and Tommy ’s relationship one of thePowerfranchise ’s most compelling in my opinion , butPower Book V : Originswill fulfil in some of the last missing pages in James St. Patrick ’s decade - long storyline .
Power , discharge in 2014 , follows a successful New York entrepreneur who covertly leads a drug empire catering to wealthy elites . As he seek to leave behind the criminal existence behind and protect his family , he navigate the precarious balance between his dual identity .
