Omari Hardwick Says ‘Perfect Thing’ Would Get Him To Reprise ‘Ghost’ Role On ‘Power’ [Video]

Since Omari Hardwick’s “Ghost” character was killed off when the original Power ended in 2020, OG fans of the show have been wondering if they would get a cameo in any of the spinoffs. So far, Ghost has not appeared anywhere in the Power Universe. 

So far, there have been three spinoffs in Power Book II: Ghost, Power Book III: Raising Kanan, and Power Book IV: Force.

While doing press for the Netflix film The Mother, Hardwick was asked about the possibility of a return to the series.

“It would have to be the perfect thing,” Hardwick answered. Then, he admitted that he’d been asked to reprise the role but turned it down.

“They asked me before to come back. They asked me in the last year and a half to come back. When I was offered this when I was in Boston reading this script. I was in Boston saying, ‘and then this.’ And then the ‘then this’ went to Starz, and then they didn’t come back. They didn’t give me what I wanted on the ‘then this.’ So if they gave me the ‘then this.'”

“Then it’s a possibility?” the interviewer asked.

“Yeah, the right ‘that,'” Hardwick replied.

C’mon Starz, give the man what he wants! Diehard fans of the series would love to see Hardwick return as Ghost. For now, fans will have to be content with following Ghost’s legacy in the character son, Tariq St. Patrick, in Power Book II: Ghost.

Recently, the show’s final two episodes of Season 3 leaked online, irking series creator 50 Cent. “Give it up for the only network that leaks its biggest shows. Great work, guys,” he captioned an Instagram post. 

50 has expressed regret over doing business with Starz in the past.
