I think that book is a problematic book and I like the idea of repurposing it for our own means, right? Plus, there is a point of no return that’s really kind of nice in what we’re doing, for sure.ĭEADLINE: Are you going to use the same approach for Season 2? KEMP: The descent into madness, the inability to return. KEMP: (LAUGHS) What I would say is Tasha is firmly part of the Power Book II world, but this chapter of Tariq’s journey involves him being on the go.ĭEADLINE: Speaking of chapters, this first season saw noted literary titles as the titles of each episode, with the finale being named after Joseph Conrad’s novella Heart of Darkness – why was that the choice for this end of this chapter? KEMP: I would say that we can’t say definitively because of what they always, any character that doesn’t die on the show can come back.ĭEADLINE: Are you considering doing a Tasha spin-off? Part of the journey of Season 2 is absolutely going through and making decisions without the benefit of someone to call.ĭEADLINE : So, I will take that as we have said sayonara to Naturi, at least for the time being. So, he turns 18 and by the end of the season he’s sending his mother away. You know in trying to build the coming-of-age story, we really did have training wheels on Tariq in the first season which in the form of his mother. So, I think what will come up in the next season is his lack of ability to contact his mother, to be with his mother and to have that connection. KEMP: What I think I can say is that Tariq was made a choice to save his mom but it’s a choice that he doesn’t have total control over because he doesn’t know where she’s going. So, are we going to see more of Tasha in Ghost or is she gone? So, when we were going to be having this conversation it would have been a different time of year and would have been different, and so I guess how I feel is exhausted, I feel exhausted and very grateful.ĭEADLINE: There’s a lot of poignant deaths in the finale, Tommy Egan is back and then gone and Naturi’s Tasha is finally out of jail and then in a protection program as the extent of Tariq’s evolution becomes evident to her. It’s so funny because the title of episode 101 of Power, the first Power, was “Not Exactly How We Planned” and that is the hallmark of this season, especially as Covid has made everything so different. DEADLINE: So, with all the trials and tribulations of the last year, how does it feel to see Season 1 of Power Book II: Ghost finished?
