Starz announced that Power Book II: Ghost season 3 will premiere Friday, March 17, 2023, at 8/7c. The network also gave a quick glimpse of returning characters from Mary J. Blige’s Monet to a bloody hand Tariq (Michael Rainey Jr.). An a heap of stressed faces from Effie, Davis, Brayden, Dru and more help complete the Power Book II: Ghost season 3 teaser trailer.

Season three picks up after the explosive finale of season two in which Monet was informed her nephew/son Zeke was dead. Also, Zeke’s father Daniel Sunjata’s Mecca/Danté Spears was also found dead by his handler, NYPD detective Blanca Rodriguez (Monique Gabriela Curnen).
