This piece was written during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the series being covered here wouldn’t exist.

It is definitely safe to say, that fans of the Power Universe, and fans of good television in general… cannot wait for the return of the STARZ series, Power Book IV: Force. Simply because season one was an outright masterpiece. For it featured everything we wanted and more from a show revolving around the one, the only, THE Tommy Egan. Since this series finally put him in the spotlight and let Joseph Sikora shine as the character, he made famous in the original Power saga. But the wonder of this show didn’t end there.
​
Because season one also featured amazing drama and epic action and a real sense of danger, something that is essential to a high-octane crime series, and well… those reasons are precisely why fans are counting down the days to Tommy’s return on September 1st.  Because they full well know, we’re going to get more of everything we loved in season one, and well… that anticipation is only going to grow after today’s gift from STARZ. For earlier, the network released the full trailer for season two of Power Book IV: Force, and well… it’s a doozy. And STARZ was courteous enough to share it with us, alongside some new gallery images, and some updated plot details, so we can share it all with you, to help you properly count down the minutes to the return of Tommy Egan.

‘STARZ released today the high-octane trailer for season two of “Power Book IV: Force,” along with dynamic gallery images and key art for the highly anticipated drama series.

ABOUT “POWER BOOK IV: FORCE” – SEASON 2
After cutting ties in New York, Tommy Egan’s newfound family and ruthless drug game enticed him to stay in Chicago. The explosive second season begins with Tommy on a mission to avenge the death of Lilliana, his former nemesis turned business partner.  With the Flynn organization weakened, he’s more determined than ever to take over the Chicago drug world, but with CBI split down the middle, Tommy and Diamond first must maintain their edge over Jenard. As their factions feud in the streets, Tommy capitalizes on another rivalry between the Serbs and Miguel Garcia, the most formidable drug lord in Chicago. After setting off a chain reaction of violence in pursuit of his ambition, Tommy must race to stay ahead of the men who are coming for what’s theirs, a federal task force that’s closing ranks, and a sadistic supplier with a direct line to the Cartel. All the while torn by the promise of a second chance with his blood family, Tommy must decide what he is willing to sacrifice to finally ascend the throne of a kingpin.
