The latest news confirms that “Power Book III: Raising Kanan” will indeed conclude after its fifth season. In addition to this announcement, Starz has unveiled a significant new addition to their cast – Shameik Moore. He is set to join the prequel series as Breeze, a character who has been hinted at for quite some time within the Power universe.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan to end after Season 5

It was announced that Power Book III: Raising Kanan will end after Season 5, following its Season 4 finale. This series, which debuted in 2021 as a prequel to the original Power series, tells the story of Kanan Stark’s early years, played by MeKai Curtis.

In March 2024, it was confirmed that the fifth season of the show “Raising Kanan” would be its last. Showrunner Sascha Penn explained that he had always planned for the series to run for five seasons, and that the story he started telling in 2019 has now reached its intended conclusion. He also hinted that Season 5 will deliver a climactic and thrilling finale. (Based on Variety’s report)

Essentially, this announcement implies that most of the previously unveiled spinoffs from Power have either already finished or are now wrapping up. For instance, Power Book II: Ghost ended in 2024, while Power Book IV: Force is concluding with its third season. It’s worth mentioning that Starz is currently working on a prequel series titled Power: Origins, which will delve into the early life of Young Ghost and Tommy.

Shameik Moore joins Power Book III: Raising Kanan Season 5 cast

Shameik Moore has become part of the cast for the last season of Power Book III: Raising Kanan. He made his first appearance as Branford “Breeze” Frady in the finale of Season 4. Breeze is a significant character in the Power universe. As a dominant drug lord from Jamaica, he has collaborated with Kanan, Ghost, and Tommy in the past.

As a gamer enthusiastically diving into the ‘Power’ Universe, I feel privileged to embody the legendary character, Breeze. It was an exciting test to uncover Breeze’s individuality, and I can hardly wait for fans to experience how Breeze will reshape the narrative in this captivating story.

Significantly, Breeze is pivotal in the series. We learn from the first Power installment that Ghost was responsible for Breeze’s death, which occurred 15 to 18 years before Season 1. This event played a crucial part in shaping Ghost’s destiny and propelled him towards his criminal career.
