After last season’s record-setting premiere numbers, Starz didn’t waste anytime ordering a 3rd season of its hit drama series, “Power.”
The second season premiered on Saturday, June 6, 2015, drawing 1.427 million viewers. Not only were those numbers a series high, they were the highest ratings ever for an episode of a Starz original drama, the cable TV network said at the time.
The upcoming 3rd season will comprise of 10 episodes, and is set to premiere in July, on the 17th, and only three words matter: “Ghost. Must. Die.”
Expect to see star Omari Hardwick reprise his role as James “Ghost” St. Patrick; Naturi Naughton as Tasha St. Patrick; Lela Loren as Angela Valdes; and other key players.
From Executive Producer Curtis Jackson and show creator and Executive Producer Courtney Kemp Agboh, “Power” season 3 picks up right where season 2 left off with a little more oomph: “I really want to blow people’s minds,” saiys showrunner Kemp. “I really want to pump more octane in to season 3. More things will happen and there’s more stimuli. It’s not that you can’t have quiet moments, but I want people to have this adrenaline-fueled experience at home. We have that in movies all the time, but I want to reach in and make you have a reaction.”
The 3-disc second season blu-ray and DVD is now out for those who want to catch up before the third season’s July 17th premiere. Or you could watch the 5-minute season 2 recap below, courtesy of Starz. Underneath it, you’ll find the latest teaser-trailer.
