“Power Book II: Ghost” will end with Season 4 at Starz, Variety has learned.

The series, which was the first spinoff of the premium cabler’s hit crime drama “Power,” was renewed for its fourth season in January 2023. Season 4 will air in two parts, with part one debuting on June 7, while part two will launch on Sept. 6. June 7 is the tenth anniversary of “Power’s” premiere on Starz.

“This explosive season of ‘Ghost’ is a fitting crescendo in a decade of an immensely popular franchise – fans will not be disappointed,” said Kathryn Busby, president of programming for Starz. “While this marks the conclusion of one chapter, our commitment to the ‘Power’ universe endures with more compelling storytelling on the horizon.”

News of “Ghost” ending comes just after Starz announced it was developing the prequel series “Origins,” which will explore the early days of Ghost and Tommy from the original series. Meanwhile, fellow spinoffs “Power Book III: Raising Kanan” and “Power Book IV: Force” are currently filming their fourth and third seasons, respectively.

“Ghost” stars Michael Rainey Jr., Mary J. Blige, Cliff “Method Man” Smith, Gianni Paolo, Woody McClain, Lovell Adams-Gray, LaToya Tonodeo, Alix Lapri, Larenz Tate, Caroline Chikezie, Lightskinkeisha, and Michael Ealy.

Brett Mahoney serves as showrunner and executive producer. “Power” creator Courtney A. Kemp also executive produces via End of Episode along with Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson through G-Unit Film and Television and Mark Canton through Canton Entertainment. Lionsgate Television produces.

I wonder if some folks will move over to Force + do we get a new spinoff (not the Ghost and Tommy prequel)

They hinted a new spin off is coming in the press release and you can probably tell who is in it by who didn't post the new trailer.

Effie spin off coming soon.

Yep. Usually when they do contracts they have the talent locked up fro like the first 3ish seasons on cheap deals. After that, actors (rightfully) want pay bumps since the show is a success.

Sad day, this was actually good, they may have to run it back, if enough people ask for it

I could see a dude like brayden who was in nothing before, with the popularity of power could prob be asking for 5 times the amount per episode they were prob paying him

Kind of like how disney was tired of paying rdj, evans etc. all that gwap and tried to go with a newer cheaper cast of super heroes but that flopped
