Executive producers Courtney Kemp and Curtis Jackson revealed today near the end of the TCA mega-panel for the Starz flagship series."Today we are pleased to announce that we are in pre-production on the first of what we know will be a collection of series inspired by the dynamic world of Power," said Kemp. "Power Book II: Ghost will continue the journey of some of Power's most controversial characters," Kemp added."This is probably going to be the most exciting thing that will happen to me this year," the multi-Grammy and Oscar nominee told the TCA audience in her surprise appearance."I've known so many Tashas, I've known so many Ghosts. I've dated so many Ghosts," the 80 Mary J. Blige million album seller declared while introducing characters from the previous seasons including Hardwick and co-star Naturi Naughton.
