Shawn (Sinqua Walls) may have succumbed to a gun shot fired by Kanan (Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson) toward the end of season 2, but the lady whom he briefly hooked up with last season will return in "Power" season 3.
LaLa Anthony, the actress who portrays the role of the LaKeisha, recently revealed on Twitter that she will return to the show. Though she only had a short story arc when she was introduced last season as Shawn's short-time flame, Fashion & Style reported that fans of the show will have a lot of things to look forward to in her character when the series returns for the third season.
"I knew that the character would want to go somewhere. I liked that there was always room for her to continue to grow," Anthony said during an interview with Buzzfeed regarding her decision to take the role of LaKeisha in the TV series.
"Sometimes people want to come out the gates doing so much, but a lot of times on shows like' Power,' it becomes a quick burn. You're there, and then all of a sudden you're gone. With my character, I like that they're easing her in and giving her more and more to do as you go. I was intrigued by that," the actress added.
It was also revealed that Anthony already shot her very first topless scene for the upcoming season, which she believed is necessary for her role in the series.
Meanwhile, lead star Omari Hardwick seemed to leak the release date of "Power" season 3 on Twitter.
The actor tweeted in September, "Day 1 down. Bout 160 to go..." If fans count the date, the premiere could fall sometime in June 2016. Since the first and second seasons of the series premiered during that month, it could be safe to say that Starz will release "Power" season 3 in June as well.
