*”Power” is over, but Starz is expanding the franchise with several spinoff series featuring Mary J. Blige, Method Man and Omar Epps.

In July 2019, “Power Book II: Ghost” was announced, and we recently reported that the series will star Mary J. Blige and follow the events that go down 48 hours after the series finale of “Power.”

Three additional spinoffs are also in production: “Power Book III: Raising Kanan,” “Power Book IV: Influence,” and “Power Book V: Force.”

Omar Epps has joined the cast of prequel Raising Kanan, and according to Deadline, the actor “comes to the series based on the backstory of the now deceased character played by Curtis “50 Cent’ Jackson,” the outlet writes.
