As the anticipation builds for the return of the electrifying “Power Book IV: Force” this fall, fans are in for an exciting twist in the Windy City. POPSUGAR exclusively presents a sneak peek into the upcoming second season, introducing a fresh face to the Chicago-set series: Carmela Zumbado, who takes on the role of Mireya Garcia, a character who promises to shake up Tommy’s world.
“Mireya may soon cause problems for the trigger-happy drug lord as she’s the ‘younger sister of the most dangerous Mexican drug dealer in the city,'” the show’s description hints. With her unwavering determination and status as a “strong-willed” nursing student, Mireya seems like a far cry from her family’s blood-stained legacy. However, her ambitions to distance herself from the family business and its tainted profits might face a formidable challenge as she inadvertently gets entangled in Tommy’s web of operations.
While fans eagerly await the unfolding drama in the upcoming season, these exclusive first-look images suggest a potential connection between Mireya and Tommy that transcends mere business. The protagonist’s history of blurring the lines between professional and personal dealings hints at intriguing possibilities.
As “Power Book IV: Force” season two gears up for its debut, the stage is set for Tommy’s retribution for the loss of his former adversary-turned-partner, Lilliana. But as Tommy navigates the treacherous waters of the drug world, new adversaries emerge, including Diamond’s brother, Jenard, and a brewing turf war that threatens to upend his carefully laid plans. The impending clash with law enforcement and a sadistic supplier adds further complexity to Tommy’s predicament. Amidst all the chaos, Tommy faces an internal struggle between his street life and the long-neglected ties of his blood family, forcing him to question the worth of his kingpin status against the backdrop of potential sacrifice.
Joseph Sikora, the talented actor who portrays Tommy, tantalizingly teased that season two delves into the essence of the original “Power,” returning to its roots and immersing viewers in the gritty streets of Chicago. “We’re hitting the streets hard, we’re figuring out where things exist in Chicago in real time,” Sikora shared with POPSUGAR, heightening the intrigue surrounding the upcoming episodes.
As “Power Book IV” season two premieres on Starz on September 1st, fans can look forward to a riveting exploration of power dynamics, alliances, and unexpected connections in the volatile world of Chicago’s underground. The enigmatic Mireya Garcia, played by Carmela Zumbado, promises to be a catalyst for change, as the city’s drug empire braces itself for another thrilling chapter.
