Eight episodes have been greenlit for the new drama series, which is a co‑production between STARZ and Lionsgate Television.
Michael Rainey, Jr. and Joseph Sikora will reprise their fan-favorite roles as Tariq St. Patrick and Tommy Egan, respectively, in Power: Legacy, a new chapter within the hit STARZ franchise. Eight episodes have been greenlit for the new drama series, which is a co‑production between STARZ and Lionsgate Television.
Michael Rainey, Jr. and Joseph Sikora originated their roles in “Power” more than 10 years ago and went on to lead their own franchise spinoffs, with “Power Book II: Ghost” and “Power Book IV: Force,” respectively. In “Power: Legacy," their stories will converge as Tommy Egan returns to New York, partnering with Tariq St. Patrick to take the city by storm.
This greenlight follows the third and final season of “Power Book IV: Force." To date, the Season Three premiere has attracted 9 million multiplatform viewers, and THE FRANCHISE has now accumulated more than 2 billion hours viewed globally across all of its series. “Power Book IV: Force” also starred Joseph Sikora, with Gary Lennon serving as executive producer and showrunner.
In the fourth and final season of “Power Book II: Ghost,” which concluded in 2024, a bonus scene of a phone call teased the continuation of Tariq’s story. In the series finale of “Power Book IV: Force,” which aired in January 2026, Tariq made a surprise appearance, furthering fan speculation that Tommy’s story will live on beyond Chicago and the two would team up for a new chapter.
“Power: Legacy” marks the fifth spinoff in the popular “Power” series, preceded by “Power Book II: Ghost”; “Power Book III: Raising Kanan,” the fifth and final season of which will premiere on June 12; “Power Book IV: Force,” which recently concluded its third and final season in January; and “Power: Origins,” the origin story of fan-favorite characters Ghost and Tommy currently in production on Season One.
“Power: Legacy” is the fifth series in the expanded “Power” Universe franchise. Gary Lennon (“Power,” “Euphoria”) will serve as showrunner and executive producer based on a pilot script co-written by Lennon and Kendra Chapman Davis.
The “Power” Universe series is executive-produced by the creator and showrunner of the original “Power,” Courtney A. Kemp, through her production company, End of Episode; Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, through G-Unit Film and Television; and Mark Canton, through Canton Entertainment. Kendra Chapman Davis (“Power Book IV: Force,” “Designated Survivor”), Joseph Sikora, and Chris Selak also serve as executive producers. Michael Rainey Jr. serves as producer.
