The Power franchise may soon leave Starz. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is behind the successful franchise, and the actor/rapper/producer posted about his unhappiness with the cable channel after the Hightown series was renewed while the fate of Power Book IV: Force remains up in the air.
Per THR, Jackson said the following about his feelings about the network in a post on social media:
“This is me packing my stuff, Starz. Sucks, my deal is up over here I’m out. They renewed Hightown and Force is the highest rated show they have sitting in limbo. If I told you how much dumb s**t I deal with over here.”
Jackson’s four-year deal with Starz is up in September, and the cable channel said that it is working on a new deal with Jackson because they want “him to remain with the company for years to come.” THR notes that Jackson has received calls from several other outlets interested in making deals with him.
Power Book IV: Force is currently airing on Starz on Sunday nights and the drama is one of the channel’s highest-rated shows. The season finale airs on March 27th.
What do you think? Would you watch the Power franchise on another channel? Are you hoping that Force will be renewed on Starz?
I will follow know matter what network. I got starz just for power book series. Don’t need them if it’s taken off.
Wherever Power goes…the Fans will follow!!!!
If they not cheating you right and giving you the opportunity and respect leave f*** Starz. They loss some else will gladly treat you right
Powet ghost 2 series to continue and also raising Canaan it’s too soon to see what time he is going to be up to
I love all the Power series. Of Starz drop them, I will cancel my Starz.
I will cancel mine as well
Grader see it in Netflix
Long as I don’t have to pay more money subscribing to another channel. Cable bill is already $250+. Js ppl struggling. Love the show tho
Cut the cord. I finally did after all these years and I love streaming. I wish I had done it sooner.
If starz cancels or does not renew contracts. I will cancel my subscription. The only reason I have starz is for the POWER SERIES. They better not Take Tommy away. We already lost GHOST.
wherever the series goes I will follow.
I will cancel Starz too
I watch all the power programs and especially I like Tommy the new series that came on.
If Power leaves Stazs I would have to leave Stazs the only reason i have stars is because of Power no other reason, I will no longer have use for it. Why are stazs being so unfair if it’s the number one show you deal with it first??
Please by ant means necessary keep doing business with Curtis Jackson.. 50.. The best shows on entertainment. Even though my blood cousin had a short lived role. 50 knows his stuff.
I only added Starz to watch the Power series. I will drop Starz and follow Power wherever they go. Joseph Sikora keeps me on the edge of my seat. It just doesn’t get better than that.
If Starz drops any of Power series, I’m dropping them like a hot rock!!!!
Only reason I pay for starz is for the power series. as long as it is not changed or sensored I will follow!
I think 90% of Power fans will agree that if Starz cancel we would cancel them. I know I only pay for Starz to watch 50 cent shows.
If power book leaves start play I will end subscription there are a couple of descant other shows but nothing better than power
