Front Row: Power Book II Cast Share Season 2 Expectations At NYC Red Carpet Premiere

Power Book II: Ghost has returned on November 21st and we caught up with the cast at the NYC red carpet premiere to discuss season 2 expectations.

We left off with Tariq and Kane joining forces to cover up their respective murders, but the cover-up is only going to lead to more questions.

Justin McManus, who portrays Professor Jabari Reynolds, said that was his first time playing dead and described the experience filming in the middle of the night on a cold Autumn night in New York.

Jabari was killed by Michael Rainey Jr.’s character who the young actor says that we’ll see Tariq struggle with the fact that he’s just like his father.

As per the synopsis via STARZ:

POWER Book II: Ghost begins its second season with Tariq St. Patrick still running from a legacy that haunts him. Forced into the choice to take the life of his professor, Jabari Reynolds, Tariq finds himself drifting further from that which he’s been fighting to protect: his family. With Tasha in witness protection, Tariq knows he must sacrifice anything to save what’s left of his family. Unable to do it alone, he turns to those wielding power and influence: Davis MacLean and his new partner, Cooper Saxe, as well as Rashad Tate. Of course, all of these options come with a steep price. So, it’s back to business with the Tejadas. But now with two murders involving Stansfield, Monet Tejada has to question if Tariq is what’s best for her family, as she seeks to protect her nephew’s NBA prospects at all costs. Her kids, Dru and Diana, question her moves as she grows more distracted, especially when Monet goes as far as trusting Cane again despite his actions against the family. In doing so, Monet finds herself in bed with Mecca, a man who wants to show her a whole new world, potentially at the cost of destroying her old one. Forcing Monet to lean on Tariq, who must decide what he really wants and what he’s going to sacrifice to get it.
