In her recent interview with Madame Niore, Kemp Agboh teased, "I just pitched the Season 3 arc to the heads of PR and Marketing and their teams... Everyone was on the edge of their seats like 'Oh, my God! No Way! You're not going to f--king do that! Noooo!' ...They've been my only audience so far, but they're pretty excited."

Power season 3 release date

While there has been no official confirmation on the air date of Power season 3, actor Omari Hardwick (Ghost) recently posted a tweet saying, "Day 1 down. Bout 160 to go..." Looks like fans and viewers can expect the series to return around early summer of 2016, speculates Music Times. Seeing that season 1 premiered in June 2014 and with the record-breaking season 2 premiere airing on 6 June 2015, perhaps, we can expect season 3 to premiere on 4 June 2016?
