Renewed: Power Book III: Raising Kanan

The third chapter in the franchise gets a second season before the first premieres.

US drama prequel Power Book III: Raising Kanan has been given a second season by Starz, ahead of its Season 1 premiere.

The third chapter in the franchise takes viewers back to the ’90s and the early years of the now-deceased Kanan Stark, portrayed in Courtney Kemp’s original series by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.

Set in the South Jamaica neighbourhood of Queens, Power Book III: Raising Kanan is a sprawling family drama that revolves around the coming of age of Kanan Stark, Ghost and Tommy’s mentor, partner and adversary.

“One season isn’t enough to tell the coming-of-age story of Kanan Stark and his mother, Raq, a fierce and successful woman who is a force of nature,” said Jeffrey Hirsch, President and CEO of Starz. “The anticipation globally for more of the Power Universe made it clear that the Kanan story needs to continue.”

Power Book III: Raising Kanan premieres Sunday, 18 July, same day as the US with new episodes weekly, on Stan.
