They will join previously announced cast members Mary J. Blige and Cliff "Method Man" Smith as part of Power Book II: Ghost, which follows Tariq as he navigates his new life, in which his desire to shed his father’s legacy comes up against the mounting pressure to save his family, according to Starz.
