With seven episodes of the latest season of Power Book II: Ghost now available, we really are heading towards the endgame for Michael Rainey Jr’s Tariq St Patrick.

But don’t worry, just because this season is heading towards its climax, that doesn’t mean it’s the last we’ll see of these characters. Far from it, as it has already been confirmed that Power Book II: Ghost will be back for a fourth season.

The upcoming season is already in production in New York, and it’s no surprise that the Power prequel has landed such an early renewal, as the series continues to go from strength to strength.

Season 3 has seen plenty of twists and turns as new dangerous situations have fallen upon Tariq. Recent episodes have included a shock death and a startling revelation that has shaken up Tariq’s personal and business relationships.

But when can we expect new episodes of the series to land and where? Read on for everything you need to know about the release schedule for Power Book II: Ghost season 3.

When is Power Book II: Ghost season 3 episode 8 released?

Monique Gabriela Curnen is back as Detective Blanca Rodriguez for these latest episodes and her presence is going to put Tariq in a precarious position – according to Rainey Jr himself.

The actor told Digital Spy: “You know what Blanca does… she’s persistent. She doesn’t give up. She wants to take down the whole St Patrick family and she’s not going to stop until she does.

“So obviously that’s going to be insane for Tariq. He’s gonna have to work around that, he’s gonna have to keep his trail pretty light.”

Behind the cameras, there’s also a significant change with Brett Mahoney replacing Courtney Kemp as showrunner.

Mahoney is a seasoned pro, having been the showrunner for Empire, executive producer for Code Black, The Following and producer of CSI: Miami from 2009 to 2012.
