STARZ has revealed that its first weekly interview series, Fat Joe Talks, will debut on Friday, October 4. The premiere episode will feature award-winning artist and actor Method Man, star of Power Book II: Ghost, as the inaugural guest. Host Fat Joe will delve into Method Man’s NAACP Image Award-winning role as Davis MacLean, exploring his reflections on the character following the conclusion of the hit series.

I’m looking forward to showing another side of my personality and having compelling conversations with some of the world’s most influential leaders and entertainers. Get your popcorn ready.”
