The crime drama tells the story of antagonist Kanan Stark’s, played by Mekai Curtis, younger years documenting how the teenage Kanan got involved in a life of crime.

Season 3 will see a host of new characters introduced including Ishmael ‘Snaps’ Henry played by The Wire‘s Wendell Pierce and Blue Blood actress Erika Woods, who stars as Ishmael’s partner and wife, Stephanie ‘Pop’ Henry.
Joining them for the upcoming season is The Americans star Grantham Coleman who is set to play Unique’s older brother, Ronnie Mathis.

Meanwhile, Mekai opened up to Digital Spy about how he dealt with filming some of the darker scenes during filming for season 2.
“At this point, I kind of do a disassociation thing. I think there have definitely been difficult days – whether it be for, you know, the actual hours that we’re putting in, whether it be the actual content or concept of what we’re shooting,” he explained.
“But by the end of the day, I’m so kind of, like, depleted and I’ve put my all into the work and what’s happening I kind of just like, base out.”
Power Book III: Raising Kanan season 3 premieres December 1 on Starz in the US and Lionsgate+ in the UK.
