Starz’s popular crime drama Power Book III: Raising Kanan will return for season four, with the network announcing the series has been renewed and production is getting 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.

The renewal announcement was made just days prior to season three’s December 1, 2023 premiere. New season three episodes will arrive on Fridays at midnight ET on the Starz app and at 8pm ET/PT on Starz.

Starz confirmed Sascha Penn will be back to guide the series as showrunner and executive producer. Additional executive producers include the Power universe creator Courtney A. Kemp, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Mark Canton, Chris Selak, and Kevin Fox.

Season four begins production in New York this week.

The season three cast included MeKai Curtis as Kanan, Tony Award winner Patina Miller as Raquel “Raq” Thomas, Omar Epps as Detective Malcolm Howard, London Brown as Marvin Thomas, Malcolm Mays as Lou-Lou Thomas, Hailey Kilgore as Jukebox, Joey Bada$$ as Unique, Shanley Caswell as Detective Burke, Antonio Ortiz as Famous, Joey Bada$$ as Unique, and Grantham Coleman as Ronnie.
