Starz is looking to expand its popular Power franchise with a new prequel series titled Origins. This upcoming drama will focus on younger versions of Ghost and Tommy, two key characters from the original Power series portrayed by Omari Hardwick and Joseph Sikora. Sikora also stars in the spinoff Power Book IV: Force. Origins will mark the fourth spinoff of Power, following the success of Book II: Ghost, Book III: Raising Kanan, and Force.
As the Power franchise approaches its 10-year anniversary, Starz is excited about the strong connection fans have with the series. Kathryn Busby, president of programming at Starz, expressed enthusiasm for the new project, stating, 'We can’t wait to see how Origins will further evolve this dynamic franchise while bringing fresh, gripping, and expansive storytelling to our audience.'
