The sixth season of Power will be its last, it has been announced.

The US crime drama, which stars 50 Cent, will bow out after the 15-episode final season.

The last instalment has been dubbed 'The Final Betrayal' and is set to premier on 25 August.

But fans needn't feel too sad about the whole thing, because a spin-off is already planned.

In a statement seen by TVLine, Starz president of programming Carmi Zlotnik said: "Season six brings us to the end of what we know is just the first chapter of the Power story. However, as one chapter comes to an end, another will begin.

"Courtney Kemp and 50 Cent have created a world rich with complex and dynamic characters, and there are a number of stories we plan to tell as we continue to explore and expand the Power universe."

Teasing the upcoming spin-off the show's co-creator Courtney Kemp said it will 'follow some of your beloved Power characters beyond the scope of the initial series... but we will play with your expectations of which characters, where and the master timeline of it all, creating a Power universe as unpredictable as the original'.

Sounds exciting, eh?

As yet, it's not clear if season six will be made available on Netflix at the same time as Starz. However, new episodes of season five would land on Netflix on Mondays, following their Sunday night debut on American network Starz.
