*WARNING … massive spoiler ahead about Sunday’s episode of “Power Book IV: Force.”
Tommy Flanagan’s (“Sons of Anarchy,” “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2”) character, “Walter Flynn,” Tommy Egan’s rival, was killed off in the fifth episode on September 29, in a betrayal operation that left fans stunned. We spoke to supervising producer Lisa Demaine about Walter’s send-off and what’s next for Tommy and his crew.
Demaine is an American filmmaker, best known for her work in television directing multiple episodes of “Lucifer,” “Chicago PD,” “Chicago Fire,” “The Rookie,” “FBI Most Wanted,” and “The Good Doctor.” Watch our exclusive conversation with her above about directing the mid-season finale and the penultimate episode for Season 2 of “Power Book IV: Force.”
“This season is filled with more power and more problems as a turf war takes shape and Tommy charts his territory, capitalizes on his competitors’ weaknesses, and makes his play at becoming the sole drug distributor in Chicago,” per the network’s news release.
Here’s the Season 2 synopsis: “Nothing stands in Tommy Egan’s (Joseph Sikora) way this season as he makes his play at becoming the sole drug distributor in Chicago. Alliances form and competitors become targets as a turf war heats up and Tommy must race to stay one step ahead of everyone. Meanwhile, a federal task force is zeroed in on him and he has an eye on a special someone, forcing him to decide what he is willing to sacrifice to claim Chicago as his.”
