"Power Book V: Influence".
The development of "Power Book V: Influence" was cancelled in August 2022 and the series would not be moving forward. "Power Book V: Influence," was set to follow Rashad Tate's political career. The spinoff was supposed to focus on Tate’s second run for governor of New York, with Larenz Tate reprising his role. However, Starz decided not to move forward with this project, likely because Tate’s character already plays a prominent role in "Power Book II: Ghost." Starz programming executives have mentioned that the character's story could continue to unfold within that series.
