Starz released the first full trailer for Power Book II: Ghost on Tuesday, along with the premiere date for the anticipated Power sequel. The upcoming spin-off will debut Sunday, Sept. 6 at 9/8c, before moving to its regular 8/7c time slot beginning on Sept. 13. And based on the trailer, this is going to be one wild ride you definitely want to tune in for.
Power Book II: Ghost begins just days after the events of Power‘s series finale, which saw Tasha (Naturi Naughton) take the fall for her son Tariq (Michael Rainey Jr.) murdering his father, James (Omari Hardwick). Fueled by his feud with the St. Patrick family, U.S. Attorney Cooper Saxe (Shane Johnson) will do whatever it takes to keep Tasha behind bars. Determined to gain his mother’s freedom, Tariq must find a way to pay for Tasha’s fame-hungry defense attorney, Davis MacLean (Method Man), while still attending an Ivy League university so he can earn his inheritance. Seemingly with no other options, Tariq turns to dealing drugs to his entitled classmates, but this decision leaves him entangled with a ruthless criminal family, led by Monet Stewart Tejada (Mary J. Blige).
