50 Cent‘s Power Book III: Raising Kanan will be returning before the end of the year and STARZ has upped the hype train with an exhilarating new trailer for Season 3.
On Thursday (October 26), the G-Unit mogul took to Instagram to unleash the teaser for the upcoming season ahead of its December return.
“So [shocked face emoji] I have the best tour and the best shows? How ya feel about it [Shrug emoji],” 50 captioned his post, also making reference to his huge Final Lap World Tour, which is currently going on in Europe.
In the new trailer, Kanan Stark (Mekhi Curtis) can’t get enough of the street life his mother warned him about and looks to continue the family business and become one of the biggest hustlers in Queens.
There’s an old adage that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend,” and it looks like Raquel (Patina Miller), whose back is against the wall, has decided to team up with former rival Unique (Joey Bada$$) now that he’s out of prison and back on the streets.
Set to debut on STARZ on December 1, check out the trailer for Raising Kanan Season 3 below:
According to STARZ, the family is left to pick the pieces up and exact revenge after the mob coordinated attack on Raquel, Marvin and Lou Lou in the third season of Raising Kanan.
“They won’t all be able to complete this intensely personal quest, but for those who do, the destination may reveal the most terrifying secret of all,” STARZ wrote in a synopsis. “There is no right and wrong or good and evil. There are no absolutes. In the end, there’s just you.
Omar Epps is back as Detective Howard and Tony Danza is set to join the cast for Season 3 as Stefano Marchetti.
Meanwhile, Season 2 of Joseph Sikora’s (Tommy Egan) spin-off, Power Book IV: Force is currently airing on STARZ which will lead directly into Raising Kanan in December so Power fans will have plenty to watch the rest of 2023.

Speaking to HipHopDX earlier this year, Sikora hyped Season 2 of Force thanks to some changes behind the scenes.
“Let me tell you, the second season is way better,” he said. “It’s like, we got Chicago — the first season, it didn’t. I don’t think so. I think they used Chicago as a backdrop.
“You’re telling me there’s one Black gang in Chicago and they run everything? Nobody’s trying to light that place up? There’s not divisions within that? The first season, the Latin thing — listen, she was great but that’s it? Chicago’s one of the most Latin cities in the entire continent. It’s the third-largest Mexican population in the world.”
Power Book IV: Force received a new showrunner in Gary Lennon last year, and Sikora compared this season to the hit Netflix series Ozark.
“Give props to Gary Lennon. He was the showrunner for Power‘s Season 5 and Season 6,” he explained. “He’s from Hell’s Kitchen and his brothers were gangsters (Westies). He is the voice of the Tommy Egan character so it’s going to be authentic. Watch Season 2. It’s as legit as a season of Ozark.”
