It’s official; ahead of Power Book III: Raising Kanan‘s season three premiere, STARZ has renewed the acclaimed drama series for another season and production is already underway.

“We’re thrilled to continue Kanan Stark’s story, and for fans to see how the events of his formative adolescent years continue to mold him into the cold-hearted villain they were first introduced to in ‘Power.’ We are quite sure that after viewers see the battle lines being drawn between Raq and Kanan on this epic upcoming third season that they will demand more,” said Kathryn Busby, President of Original Programming for STARZ, in a statement.

This is the second time Raising Kanan has been renewed before the release of its newest season. The prequel, set in Southside Jamaica, Queens, in the early ’90s, details the origin story of Kanan Stark, played by 50 Cent in the original Power series. Young Kanan is portrayed by MeKai Curtis. He stars alongside Patina Miller as Raquel Thomas, Omar Epps as Detective Malcolm Howard, London Brown as Marvin Thomas, Malcolm Mays as Lou-Lou Thomas, Hailey Kilgore as Jukebox, and Joey Bada$$ as Unique.

Fans of the cinematic universe still await news of a Power Book IV: Force season three renewal, but the season four renewal of Power Book II: Ghost was announced prior its third season premiere. Michael Ealy is set to join the cast as a series regular as Detective Don Carter. Production began in January 2023, but may have been delayed due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. The strike has since ceased.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan will premiere on Friday (Dec. 1) at midnight ET on the STARZ app.
