Patina Miller Returns in Raising Kanan Season 5 Trailer
The raising kanan season 5 trailer brings Patina Miller’s Raq Thomas back, ending the cliffhanger left by the Season 4 finale. The first look at the fifth and final season of Power Book III: Raising Kanan also puts Mekai Curtis’s Kanan Stark on a collision course with his mother before the series returns on Friday, June 12.
Raq Thomas in the trailer
Patina Miller’s character appears alive after four seasons built around Kanan’s effort to break out from his mother’s shadow. The trailer does not treat that reveal as a side note; it makes Raq the engine of the final run, with Kanan answering her with, “I’ve had you as an enemy my whole life.”
Kanan also opens with, “If you didn’t hate me before, you’re gonna hate me now,” which sets the season’s tone fast. That line tells the audience exactly where the business of this final chapter is headed: not reconciliation, but escalation.
Kanan and Breeze partnership
Shameik Moore’s Breeze enters the trailer as Kanan’s new business partner, shifting the story from family fallout to a fresh alliance with real stakes. Wendell Pierce’s Snaps and Erika Woods’s Pop, Breeze’s aunt and uncle, are part of that orbit, giving the partnership a wider criminal frame than a simple two-man setup.
The trailer also places Tony Danza’s Stefano Marchetti in a conversation about how things with Raq could get messy. Kanan’s answer is blunt: “Do what you gotta do.” That exchange keeps the final season from playing like a victory lap; it sounds like a negotiation already turning toward conflict.
June 12 on Starz
Friday, June 12 is the date that matters for viewers tracking the end of the series. New episodes will stream weekly on Fridays via Starz, so the trailer is doing more than teasing a return date — it is resetting expectations for how the last season will unfold after the Season 4 cliffhanger.
Spence Moore II, Charlie Mann, and Joey Bada$$ are part of the wider cast around the final season, while Sascha Penn and Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson remain tied to the series’ larger power structure. The cleanest read on the trailer is simple: Raq is alive, Kanan is moving into a new partnership, and the show is entering its last stretch with its central family war still unresolved.
