Topic / Subject
50 Cent teased a new spinoff called “Power: Legacy” and hinted it could be his final expansion of the Power universe.

TL;DR
The tease is real, the “last spinoff ever” part is still just his phrasing, not an official Starz end of franchise announcement.

Key Details
Project: Power: Legacy (Power universe)
What’s rumored: That Legacy could be the final expansion of the Power universe, based on 50 Cent’s caption language
Source type (official / reputable trades / social leak / unknown): Official social post plus outlet summaries, with prior trade reporting on development
• Per outlets summarizing his caption, 50 Cent posted a first look promo image and wrote it could be the last spinoff before he’s done expanding the universe.
• Deadline previously reported Power: Legacy was in development at Starz and expected to involve Joseph Sikora and Michael Rainey Jr.
• There is no official Starz statement confirming Legacy is the final Power project overall.

Breakdown
This is classic 50 marketing. He knows the Power fanbase lives on teases, posters, and “what’s next” energy, and he also knows “final chapter” language instantly raises the stakes.

The clean part is that Legacy has been on the radar before. Deadline’s earlier reporting gave it real foundation, so this is not random fan fiction.

The messy part is the word “final.” That could mean final spinoff he personally leads, final spinoff for this specific era of characters, or the end of the franchise. Those are three very different things, and only one is a true full stop.

What We Know
• 50 Cent shared a first look promo image for Power: Legacy.
• Deadline has previously reported Legacy was in development at Starz and tied to key Power names.
• No official announcement says Starz is ending the Power franchise.

What We Don’t Know
• Whether “final” means final Power project overall, or just 50 stepping back
• When Legacy would realistically premiere, or how it fits with other Power plans
• Whether Starz has additional Power projects in the pipeline beyond Legacy
• If contracts and schedules for returning cast are finalized

How Credible Is This?
Source quality: Medium to High for the tease itself, since it is from 50’s own post. Medium for the “final expansion” interpretation, since it is wording, not a network statement.
Anything confirming/contradicting it: Deadline’s development reporting supports Legacy being real. Nothing confirms a hard franchise end.
Confidence level: Medium.

Production Reality Check
Even if Legacy is real and moving, franchises rarely slam the door shut unless there’s a business reason. If ratings stay strong, “final” often becomes “final for now.”

If the meaning is “final one 50 spearheads,” that is more plausible, because it is a personal workload and deal making choice, not a corporate strategy statement.

Does It Make Sense?
Studio/platform logic: Starz has treated Power as a pillar. Ending expansion only makes sense if costs rise faster than returns, or the brand needs a reset.
Audience demand: Fans still show up for Power universe events. If Legacy hits, the appetite for more will not disappear.

What to Watch Next
• A Starz statement that clarifies what Legacy is and what it is not
• Trade reporting that confirms showrunner, cast deals, and production timeline
• Any wording shift from “final expansion” to “final one I’m running”
• Whether Legacy is positioned as a limited run, which would support “closing a chapter”

Comment
Do you want Power to actually end cleanly, or should Starz keep spinning it out as long as the ratings hold?
