The “Power” universe is set for a shakeup as Joseph Sikora, star of “Power Book IV: Force,” announces that the upcoming third season will be its last.
Fans, however, can take heart – Sikora has hinted that a new project is already in development.
In a video posted on Starz and Joseph Sikora’s Instagram pages, the actor revealed, “When Gary Lennon and the other writers and I were mapping out our third season, we saw that we were telling a complete story, and that this was the perfect opportunity to stay true to our artistic vision and make this the final chapter in Tommy’s journey in Chicago.”
While walking through the set, Joseph assured fans that Tommy Egan’s journey is far from over.
“But don’t worry. Tommy’s journey is far from over with. We’re just getting warmed up, and I can’t wait to show you what we have planned next. I want to give a big shout out to all the players: the cast, the crew from ‘Power Book IV: Force,’ and tell you to tune in. Because ghosts never die, and power never ends.”
This announcement comes on the heels of “Power Book II: Ghost” entering its fourth and final season, leaving “Power Book III: Raising Kanan” as the only continuing series within the “Power” franchise, which was renewed for a fifth season in March.
IceCreamConvos.com previously reported a new prequel series titled “Origins” is in development at Starz.
This news followed the announcement that “Force” showrunner Gary Lennon extended his deal with Lionsgate Television to continue working on the franchise.
In a statement, Lennon expressed mixed feelings about concluding “Force” but teased future storytelling within the “Power” universe.
“It is bittersweet to write the fulfilling ending of this chapter in Tommy’s journey, a character myself and fans have grown to love over the past decade. Season 3 will question everything we thought we knew of Tommy’s world and I promise you it will not disappoint! Although this may be the end of the road for ‘Force,’ there is much more expansive, compelling storytelling for the characters within the Power Universe.”
“Power Book IV: Force” was renewed for its third season in December, shortly after the conclusion of its second season in November.
The series boasts an impressive lineup of executive producers, including Gary Lennon; franchise creator Courtney A. Kemp for End of Episode; Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson through G-Unit Film and Television; Mark Canton through Atmosphere Entertainment MM; Terri Kopp; and Chris Selak, with Lionsgate serving as the studio.
50 Cent took to Instagram and teased there’s more to come for Tommy Egan:
Im glad all the fans have been so supportive of FORCE, we have more heat coming, my Power Universe is still expanding… wait till you see what I have up my sleeve, you haven’t seen the last of Tommy……💣BOOM💨
As the “Power” universe continues to evolve, fans can look forward to seeing what new stories and characters will emerge, ensuring that the legacy of “Power” lives on.
