‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan’ Season 5 Episode 6 Release Date and Time

The countdown is on again for ‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan‘ fans, with the fifth and final season barreling toward its most volatile stretch yet. Episode 6 lands as Kanan Stark’s rise continues to collide head on with his mother’s crumbling empire, and viewers are eager to know exactly when they can tune in.

With the series wrapping up for good this summer, every remaining Friday has become appointment viewing for followers of the Thomas family saga. Here is everything currently known about when and where to catch the next chapter of Southside’s power struggle.

‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan’ Episode 6 Release Date

According to Rotten Tomatoes, episode 6 of ‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan’ season 5 is scheduled to air on July 17. This keeps the crime drama locked into the same Friday cadence it has followed since its June premiere, giving fans another predictable night to plan around.

The season has consistently released new episodes on Fridays at 8 p.m. Eastern Time on the STARZ network, and there is no indication that pattern will change for episode 6. The show’s steady weekly rollout has become part of the ritual for loyal viewers tracking Kanan and Raq’s escalating conflict.

‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan’ season 5 consists of eight episodes total, meaning episode 6 pushes the series firmly into its final stretch before the August finale. The show has not taken any midseason breaks, keeping the momentum uninterrupted heading into these last few installments.

Where to Watch the New ‘Kanan’ Episode

STARZ remains the only outlet currently airing new episodes of the final season, and that will not change for episode 6. Viewers with cable access can catch the episode on the STARZ channel at its usual broadcast time, while streaming subscribers can watch through the STARZ app or its on demand platforms the same day.

Those without a direct STARZ subscription do have some alternative access points for catching up on earlier chapters of ‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan,’ including Philo and other participating streaming services. New episodes of the final season, however, remain exclusive to STARZ on their actual release day.

Subscription plans for STARZ streaming start at a relatively low monthly cost, making it accessible for fans who have not yet signed up. Given how tightly wound this final season’s plot has become, missing even a single Friday could mean falling noticeably behind on the fallout between Kanan, Raq, Breeze, and Stefano.

What to Expect from the Thomas Family Fallout

Heading into episode 6, the tension between Kanan and Raq shows no signs of cooling off. Episode 5, titled ‘School of War,’ saw Raq and Marvin navigating an increasingly precarious situation as Raq’s new business alliances proved far less loyal than she had hoped.

Kanan’s deception of Tiana has continued to escalate throughout the back half of the season, giving him deeper access to his mother’s operation from the inside. Meanwhile Jukebox’s own misstep has left her exposed and in danger, adding another volatile thread heading into the next episode.

Episode summaries indicate that episode 6 will see Raq and Marvin continuing to navigate their precarious position while Kanan and Breeze deepen their partnership even further. Jukebox is also expected to hatch a plan of her own, suggesting her storyline is about to take a more active turn after being placed in jeopardy.

Showrunner Sascha Penn has said this final season will resolve every lingering question tied to the Thomas family, including how Kanan ultimately comes to kill Jukebox in the original ‘Power’ series. With only a handful of episodes left, episode 6 is shaping up as a critical turning point before the season barrels toward its finale.

Cast and Behind-the-Scenes Details

The final season features a stacked returning lineup anchored by Mekai Curtis as Kanan Stark and Patina Miller as Raq. London Brown, Malcolm Mays, Joey Bada$$, and Wendell Pierce also return in their established roles, while Shameik Moore has stepped into a series regular role this season as Breeze after a guest appearance in season 4.

Behind the camera, Sascha Penn continues on as showrunner and executive producer, working alongside a directing team that has included Dylan C. Brown, Benjamin Semanoff, and Kieron Hawkes this season. The series is executive produced under Courtney A. Kemp’s End of Episode banner alongside Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson’s G-Unit Film and Television and Mark Canton’s Canton Entertainment, with Lionsgate Television producing for STARZ.

With Kanan and Raq’s collision course now nearly impossible to untangle, how do you think the fallout from episode 6 is going to reshape the endgame for the Thomas family?
