Full details below:

The Power Universe is on the brink of its most anticipated conclusion yet. Starz’s “Power Book IV: Force” — the spinoff following Tommy Egan’s ruthless journey in Chicago — releases its series finale, Episode 10 titled “Beginning of the End,” on Friday, January 16, 2026. A promotional trailer and preview clip have ignited widespread fan frenzy, with heavy speculation centering on a potential return from Michael Rainey Jr.’s Tariq St. Patrick and even whispers of James “Ghost” St. Patrick’s (Omari Hardwick) involvement, despite his character’s death in the original series.

The official preview for the finale, released earlier this month, shows Tommy (Joseph Sikora) declaring he’s ready to “take everyone down” while orchestrating a high-stakes plan to dominate Chicago’s drug trade. The synopsis teases “immense personal sacrifices” as Tommy concludes his story, with relationships tested and chaos erupting in the Windy City. In a key moment, Tommy mentions calling in “one last favor,” prompting immediate online theories that the call is directed to Tariq — a setup rooted in the post-credits scene of “Power Book II: Ghost,” where Tariq receives a mysterious urgent call.

Fan breakdowns on YouTube channels like Next Scene Network and MarcDarkTV have dissected the trailer frame by frame, pointing to intense shootouts, major character deaths, and Tommy’s desperate situation as evidence that he needs backup from New York. Discussions on Reddit’s r/PowerTV and social media groups highlight how the finale could bridge the broader franchise, with Tariq potentially arriving to aid his uncle-figure Tommy in the final war against rivals like the Marquez cartel or remaining CBI forces. Some theories suggest Tariq “earns the name Ghost” by stepping into his father’s legacy, handling the chaos with the same cold precision that defined James St. Patrick.

Ghost’s possible appearance remains a hotter debate. While Omari Hardwick has publicly stated in interviews that producers approached him about returning but he declined, fans refuse to let go. Trailers and leaked spoilers have fueled ideas of a hallucination, flashback, or dream sequence where Ghost appears to Tommy, offering guidance or closure. Others insist a full resurrection isn’t off the table, given the franchise’s history of twists. Comments on promotional videos range from “Tariq saves the day and Tommy calls him Ghost” to “Ghost’s spirit haunts the finale — he’s not really dead.”

The buildup to this moment has been intense. Season 3, which premiered November 7, 2025, has delivered non-stop action and drama. After skipping a week following the January 2 airing of Episode 9, “War Requiem,” Starz gave fans time to catch up on the Starz app. That episode saw revenge plots explode, alliances fracture, and new threats emerge, leaving Tommy isolated and facing overwhelming odds. The finale’s delay to January 16 has only amplified anticipation, with viewers binge-watching prior installments in preparation.

“Power Book IV: Force” has stood apart in the Power franchise since its 2022 debut. Tommy’s move from New York to Chicago after Ghost’s death and betrayals by Tariq allowed the character to evolve independently. Over three seasons, he’s battled local kingpins Diamond and Jenard Sampson, forged uneasy partnerships, and dealt with personal losses. Season 3 ramped up the stakes with episodes like “Do or Die,” “There’s Always a Price to Pay,” and “Build Back Better,” culminating in the war-torn “War Requiem.”

Joseph Sikora’s portrayal of Tommy — unpredictable, loyal, and deadly — has been the show’s heartbeat. The actor has teased in interviews that the ending will deliver big payoffs for longtime fans, hinting at emotional depth amid the violence. Supporting cast members, including Miriam A. Hyman, Shane Harper, and others, have contributed to the layered storytelling, with themes of legacy, betrayal, and the cost of power running throughout.

The trailer has sparked massive online engagement. YouTube breakdowns with titles like “Tariq Returns & Earns The Name ‘Ghost'” and “THIS Is When Ghost REALLY Returns” have garnered tens of thousands of views, with fans debating whether Tariq’s arrival ties into a potential new spinoff or “Power Legacy” project. Joseph Sikora and executive producer 50 Cent have suggested Tommy’s story isn’t fully over, raising possibilities of future crossovers or extensions.

For now, all signs point to an explosive close. The finale promises to resolve Tommy’s Chicago empire quest, with sacrifices that could include key allies or enemies. Whether Tariq physically appears, provides backup, or simply inspires the action, the connection to the original series feels inevitable. Ghost’s shadow — whether literal or metaphorical — adds emotional weight to what could be Tommy’s final stand.

Fans can stream all episodes on the Starz app, with the finale expected to drop at midnight ET on January 16. The Power Universe, launched in 2014, has expanded through multiple spinoffs, but “Force” has carved its own gritty path. As the trailer teases total war and one last favor, the question lingers: Will Tommy emerge victorious, or will the past finally catch up in the most shocking way?

With the franchise’s track record for surprises, one thing is certain — the ending will leave audiences talking long after the credits roll. Buckle up for what promises to be the Power saga’s most talked-about finale yet.
