Power Women Summit: STARZ Executives and Talent Discuss How Specificity and Commercial Success Go Hand in Hand

December 2, 2025

In a time when female voices are being silenced in the real world, telling women’s stories in film and television has become paramount. For Starz, one “credo” remains key: authenticity. For more than a decade, the network has championed bold, multifaceted portrayals of women — whether through the fierce figures of the “Power” Universe or the resilient, emotionally rich characters of “Outlander.” At TheWrap’s 2025 Power Women Summit panel “Sensuality and Strength: Breaking the Mold in Female Storytelling,” presented by STARZ #TakeTheLead, President of Original Programming Kathryn Busby, “Power Book III: Raising Kanan” star Patina Miller and “Outlander: Blood of My Blood” executive producer Toni Graphia reflected on how their shared dedication to storytelling remains central to their works’ identity.
