Starz renews Power for a third season

Coming off a record-breaking season 2 premiere, which gave Power the most-ever viewers for a Starz original series, the network has renewed the drama from creator Courtney Kemp Agboh.

Power, which stars Omari Hardwick and has Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson as an executive producer, is a crime drama set in both the New York club scene and the brutal drug trade. Although the second season just began, Starz has already secured the show for a 10-episode third season.

Production on season 3 will begin in September.
