Power Book II: Ghost has wrapped on Starz, but Tariq’s story could continue. Rumors of a possible spin-off have been floating around for some time now, and staR Michael Rainey Jr. addressed those rumors in a new interview with Deadline.
Mary J. Blige, Cliff “Method Man” Smith, Gianni Paolo, Woody McClain, Lovell Adams-Gray, LaToya Tonodeo, Alix Lapri, Larenz Tate, Caroline Chikezie, and Michael Ealy also star in the crime drama, which is a spin-off of the original Power series. The story finds young Tariq St. Patrick (Rainey Jr.) trying to escape his old life and attend college.
In the final moments of the series finale of Power Book II: Ghost, Tariq is shown with an unidentified person on the phone, which helped to fuel the spin-off rumors. Rainey Jr. said the following about the possibility:
“I don’t know what is going on. You know, the Power Universe never ends. Personally, I’m just excited to see what they got next. [When I read that scene], I was thinking, “What are y’all talking about?” I’m excited for whatever. If they call me, I’m picking up my phone. I’m just about giving the fans what they want. If they want Tariq to live until he’s 50, I’ll do that. Tariq is just a call away. I might just have to cut my hair first.”
What do you think? Have you followed Power Book II: Ghost? Would you watch another Power spin-off featuring Tariq?
