And it didn't always work on the original series, with newer characters storylines not packing enough of a punch to justify their screentime taking away from the mains. Executive Producer Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson presents the hit drama Power, centered on a drug kingpin struggling to go from illegal to legitimate in the NYC nightlife. With only the strongest warriors left in the ring, time is running out, and so is everyoneâs energy. The original Power always had a robust cast, with a slew of main characters and recurring characters branching off to create many storylines that interconnected. Universes bid their sad farewells as one by one theyâre wiped from existence. While he's never been shy about setting out on a different path than the one his father wanted for him, it'll be interesting to see if no matter what, all roads do indeed lead back to him being his father's son. Sit down with the men of 'Season 2' who dare to drive over the frozen ocean and river waters of the Arctic, and learn why they risk their lives for the job. Tariq has been morphing into his own version of his father for years now. His former drug partner and brother in arms must pay for the ultimate betrayal. There's a reason this spinoff is titled Ghost, even though the Ghost that we know is no longer around.
Tariq grew up before our very own eyes on screen, and it goes without saying that his journey has been up and down, but this premiere episode did a perfect job of setting up the series and getting you invested in the next phase of Tariq's journey. Certainly, not me when Power first began.
