'Power' star Rotimi says "there is no coming back" for Kanan, but Dre is going to take advantage of that

Rotimi tells Meaww that he wants Dre to 'live a long life' despite the thousands of fans wishing death upon him.

It has been over a month since ‘Power’ season 5 finale was aired, but we are all still reeling from the three shocking deaths of the season. In fact, the whole season was filled with so many plot twists that left most of us thinking “they cannot do this,” but they did every single episode.  

Players we thought would be around till the end of the show were killed off, like Kanan (portrayed by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson) and Angela (portrayed by Lela Loren). Meanwhile. Dre, who, many want to see dead, is surviving every possible worst-case scenario. There is one man, who is not complaining, though - Rotimi Akinosho.  

About Dre’s miraculous escape from death yet again, Rotimi tells Meaww, “I know everyone wants my character to die, though, but despite that, he was able to be like a superhero and employ multiple gunshots and kill multiple people.”
