The first season of Power recently finished airing on Starz, leaving fans of the TV show ready for a second season. The series was already renewed for season two which will start airing in 2015. But now, there are rumors that those plans have been cancelled. What’s going on?
Created by Courtney Kemp Agboh and produced by rapper Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Power revolves around James “Ghost” St. Patrick (Omari Hardwick) — the owner of Truth, a popular New York nightclub. He seems to have it all; a successful business, a beautiful wife and an amazing Manhattan penthouse. However, his club is actually a front for a lucrative drug network. Ghost decides he want to finally leave the drug world and go legitimate but that’s easier said than done.
The rest of the cast includes Lela Loren, Naturi Naughton, Joseph Sikora, Andy Bean, Adam Huss, Kathrine Narducci, Sinqua Walls, Luis Antonio Ramos, Greg Serano, and Lucy Walters.
The rumors of the show’s cancellation are false and seem to stem from an article on a website called Cream Bmp Dail.
The article reads, “Stars announced they will be cancelling the second season of hit show ‘Power’ until further notice due to creator and star 50 Cent pulling out due to an upcoming G-Unit reunion tour.” It’s been shared 3,250 times on Facebook — and most people who see the post likely don’t realize that its source is a satire site.
Starz has not released a statement about season two not moving forward. Aside from the fact that there are several inaccuracies in the article, a disclaimer on the site reads, “This website is comprised of satire and parody of current news and urban culture. For entertainment purposes only.”
Season two of Power is set to start filming in September for a planned 2015 debut.
What do you think? Do you like the Power TV show? Are you looking forward to season two? Did you get fooled by the article?
Absolutely LOVE this show and I’m so bummed that I have to wait so long!!!! I love Fifty, so I can hold out. In the meantime I will feast on his music and other films.
I understand he got to make his money! Real fans support his decision as a music artist and actor
I love this show!! Can’t wait for season 2!
Come On second series. The season finale was awesome!
Ratings would have hit the roof, but good Black shows, always have to wait on the Man not the Fans, so sad.
I love it and im looking forward to season too…Didn’t think I would have to wait until 2015. #anxious
Season Two….im sorry
Yup the show is to legit to quit now put it back on and just kill Curtis Jackson off the show cause the unit is to important then the viewers and fans of the show. If he cared he would of said **** this trip I got work to do with this TV show that caught a lot of people’s eyes but now we see that he ain’t on **** but making his group happy instead of his fans/viewers….
Ture kill off his character…i guess he feel since he is the producer of the show hebhas to be there
Yeah they should keep the show and just kill 50 off the show or have someone else play his role cause he ain’t worried about the viewers or the fans cause if he did he would of been paying attention cause this show is catching alot of viewer eyes and creating alot of fans like me yup dig so get with show.
Love the show! Waiting with much anticipation for season two.
Power is well written and if they knew what was good for them they keep it on. If one day it so happens to get cancelled they need to make it into a series of movies or a miniseries. Too good to let the story line drop like that.
Love this show. Can’t wait until season 2. All my co workers feel the same.
Gooosh this the first time 4 me to Google just can’t wait for season two

I love this show. Please bring season #2.
