‘Power: Origins’ Finds Its Ghost and Tommy in Spence Moore II and Charlie Mann

The Power prequel series, Power: Origins, has found its young Ghost and Tommy.

The series will star Spence Moore II and Charlie Mann as Ghost and Tommy, and they join the previously cast MeKai Curtis who currently stars as young Kanan on Power Book III: Raising Kanan.

Moore and Mann take over the roles that were played by Omari Hardwick and Joseph Sikora in the OG Power series.

With Curtis’ casting presumably, this means that Power: Origins will take place in the Power timeline immediately after Power Book III: Raising Kanan, which, at the end of Season 4, introduced Shameik Moore’s Breeze.

What will ‘Power Origins’ be about?

Here’s the official synopsis for Power: Origins:

Power: Origins will continue to explore the Power universe in fresh and compelling ways, delving into the action-packed origin story of fan-favorite characters Ghost and Tommy as ambitious young entrepreneurs on the rise, determined to make their mark on the streets of New York City. A fun, rambunctious exploration of a new time period in the Power franchise, Power: Origins will highlight the unbridled audacity of young men not just leveling up, but determined to become legends in the game.

Power: Origins is set to be the fourth spinoff of Power, following Power Book II: Ghost, Power Book III: Raising Kanan and Power Book IV: Force. Ghost ended last year, and as we mentioned, the upcoming season of Kanan is its last. The upcoming season of Force is its last as well. However, a fifth potential spinoff, Power: Legacy, which would see Michael Rainey Jr.’s Tariq and Joseph Sikora’s Tommy return, is in early development at the network.

Power Book III: Raisng Kanan showrunner will also be the showrunner for this series, and he co-wrote the pilot with original Power creator, Courtney A. Kemp. The Power universe series are executive produced by Kemp through her End of Episode banner, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson through his G-Unit Film and Television, Mark Canton through Canton Entertainment, Chris Selak, Kevin Fox and Pete Chatmon.

Lionsgate Television produces the series for Starz.
