Starz is the Only Place You Can Stream Power Book II Season 2 Online, or Catch Up

During its original six-year run, Power took the world by storm. It didn’t take long before many regarded it as one of TV’s best shows. But the series ended dramatically in 2020, making way for several spin-offs, including Power Book 2: Ghost. A sequel to the original, and continuing just days after the first series left off, Power Book 2: Ghost follows Tariq St. Patrick, as he tries to overcome the legacy his father set before him. It’s only natural that the son of James “Ghost” St. Patrick would run into a few hijinks during his drug-dealing activities. When the first season of Book 2: Ghost came to a close many were left on the edge of their seats, waiting for its triumphant return.

You’ll be happy to know that Power Book II: Season 2 will be dropping November 21, 2021, which is ever so close. Starz is the best and only place to watch the new season of Power Book II, but also the first season, Power Book III: Raising Kanan, and the many other spin-offs that are yet to arrive — including Power Book IV: Force and Power Book V: Influence.

What’s Power All About?

The original six-season series of Power expounds on the life and career of James St. Patrick, a ruthless drug dealer who also goes by the name of Ghost. When we meet him, he’s also planning to leave his criminal empire behind, to become a legitimate nightclub owner. As you’d expect, there are some obstacles along the way, and in the show, he’s forced to balance his separate lifestyles and his family. Starring Omari Hardwick, Lela Loren, Joseph Sikora, and Naturi Naughton, the entire show was riveting from start to finish. But after its dramatic conclusion, the entertainment doesn’t stop.

Power Book II: Ghost is a sequel, taking place just days after Power wraps up. It follows Tariq St. Patrick, the son of the protagonist from the first run of the series — James “Ghost” St. Patrick. Power Book III: Raising Kanan is a prequel, taking place well before the events of the first series, in 1990s Southside, Jamaica, Queens. Both season one of Power Book II: Ghost and Power Book III: Raising Kanan are available to watch now on Starz.  In late November, when season 2 of Power Book II drops, you’ll be able to watch that, as well!

Who Created Power?

The Power series was created and produced by Courtney A. Kemp, a talented writer, and producer for shows like The Good Wife and Beauty & the Beast. It was also developed in collaboration with Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, who served as executive producer on the show and also played the role of Kanan Stark.
