THE POWER with Toni Collette & Auli’i Cravalho Premieres on Prime Video

Every revolution begins with a spark.

Female-centric global thriller The Power, with Toni Collette, John Leguizamo and Auli’i Cravalho, premieres on Amazon Prime Video.

The Power is our world, but for one twist of nature. Suddenly, and without warning, teenage girls develop the power to electrocute people at will. The series features a cast of remarkable characters from London to Seattle, Nigeria to Eastern Europe, as the Power evolves from a tingle in teenagers’ collarbones to a complete reversal of the power balance of the world.

Adapted from Naomi Alderman’s novel, The Power filmed for 11 months around the world from London to South Africa to Vancouver.

Instead production on The Power started in the U.K. in 2021 with the Leslie Mann and Tim Robbins (since recast) spotted on set and filmed in a number of locations including Fairford, Lechlade, a large convent on the outskirts of Bowdsey and the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre in south London..
