When is the Power Book III Raising Kanan season 3 release date? Centering on the family of Kanan Thomas, Raising Kanan mostly follows his mother Raquel: a powerful drug dealer in Queens who navigates motherhood alongside defending her territory.
With its third season now on the horizon, it’s completely uncontroversial to say that Power Book 3: Raising Kanan is one of the best TV series around right now. It’s among the best thriller series on TV, is a massive hit, and we adore it. In fact, we’re just as excited as you are for the new season of Raising Kanan, so we’ve put together all the latest information on that, and much more below.
Power Book III Raising Kanan season 3 release date
Power Book 3: Raising Kanan will return on Friday, December 1, 2023 for its highly anticipated season 3. The remaining nine episodes will then air weekly, becoming available on the Starz app on Fridays at midnight.
This is great news for fans, because the Hollywood strikes made a 2023 release look to be completely out of the picture. Because of this, we had previously been expecting Raising Kanan season 3 to drop in 2024, so this is an early – and welcome – treat. It’s been a short wait, because season 2 dropped only a little over a year ago.
Who is in the Power Book III Raising Kanan season 3 cast?
The Power Book 3 Raising Kanan season 3 cast list will bring back all the main stars, including Mekai Curtis, Patina Miller, Malcolm Mays, and Joey Bada$$.
There will be new faces joining the cast too as the next batch of characters enter the show to cause trouble. Among the confirmed new additions is Paul Yen, who is best known for appearing alongside Reese Witherspoon in the miniseries Little Fires Everywhere.
Wendell Pierce, Erika Woods, and Grantham Coleman are also joining the ensemble. Pierce, in particular, has a potentially fascinating role as a notorious bank robber and drug dealer who now serves as something of a mentor for the new kids on the block, like Kanan. Woods plays his wife.

What will happen in Power Book III Raising Kanan season 3?
The Power Book Raising Kanan season 3 plot will continue Raquel and Unique’s relationship as rivals turned potential friends. At the end of season 2, Unique saved Raquel’s life, and showrunner Sascha Penn states that probably won’t be the end of their affections.
“[Raquel] doesn’t have a lot of confidants,” Penn told Variety. “On a certain level, Unique provides that in ways that some of these other characters can’t.” Could it turn romantic? Penn, “wouldn’t rule it out”, so season 3 could be very intriguing indeed.
In addition, audiences will get the chance to see Kanan himself reckoning and coming to terms with his family’s secrets, now that he’s out of the dark. He’ll be having to confront and reshape his notions of morality, and of right and wrong.
