Power Book II: Ghost Season 2 could be coming very soon to Starz after the season finale set up another set of episodes for the Power spin-off. Some cast members look set to leave in Season 2 and showrunner Courtney Kemp has revealed how these departures will set up the plot of the next season. The second season does not have a trailer yet, but details are starting to emerge about the upcoming instalment.
When is Power Book 2 Season 2 out?
Ghost Season 2 was confirmed by Starz in September 2020 in an Instagram post reading, "We thought we told you that we won't stop. Season 2 about to be even more fire." However, the release date for the new season has not been released yet.
The first season of the show premiered in September 2020, suggesting that the next season will come in September 2021 if coronavirus-related hold ups do not delay the show.
A fall 2021 release date seems achievable. Amid coronavirus delays, the first season filmed from July to October 2020, meaning that the show should be able to return in its previous slot as long as it can start filming by earlier summer.
In the meantime, filming is set to start early in the new year of Power Book IV: Force, the upcoming spin-off starring Tommy Egan (played by Joseph Sikora), which presumably will film in full before production begins on Power Book 2 Season 2.
Who is in the cast of Power Book 2 Season 2?
One cast member from the first season looks set to not appear in the next season of Ghost (spoilers ahead). Tasha St. Patrick (Naturi Naughton) goes into a protection program in the first season finale, which sees her out of the life of Tariq (Michael Rainey Jr).
In a Deadline interview, Kemp hinted this would mean she would be taking a break from the show. She said, "What will come up in the next season is his lack of ability to contact his mother, to be with his mother and to have that connection." However, she also added that, "any character that doesn't die on the show can come back."
Talking about people who die on the show, Jabari Reynolds (Justin McManus) is killed by Tariq in the finale, meaning he is out of the show. Expected to return, meanwhile, are Michael Rainey Jr and Mary J Blige as crime queenpin Monet.
What will happen in Power Book 2 Season 2?
Speaking to Deadline, Kemp said that Season 2 will be all about ethics, as Tariq thinks about the decisions he has made and the murders he has committed.
She said, "Tariq's class, the Canonical Studies class, moves into an ethics unit. So, next year we will be exploring ethics..."
This will particularly be the case as Riq survives without his moral compass as Tasha is away from him. Talking to TVLine, she said, "when we get to the beginning of Season 2, there's definitely a feeling from Tariq of, 'I would like to know where my mother is.'"
Is there a trailer for Power Book 2 Season 2?
Currently, Season 2 has no trailer, and we are not likely to get one until filming begins. Most likely, we will get to see our first trailer for the season at the end of Power Book III: Raising Kanan, set to air at some point in 2021.
Power Book 2 Season 2 is coming soon to Starz.
