Omari played a character that became legendary. Only dude to wear a suit that actually made me want to rock suits all day. Don’t worry power fans, he will be back
He dead bro 😂
@@youngmindelevation1176 I still don't believe Kourtney. No open casket funeral and no mention on Power heaven and spin off named Ghost. An actor like Omari would take that as disrespect so IMO she planned something out with him. He's one of the most loved character on that show. Something smells funny so we will see after these spinoff where it leads. The lead guy on the show to get disrespected like that and not a word, something is FORSURE cooking that we don't know.
@@youngmindelevation1176 its a tv show anything can happen
@@FMD023 omari , kourtney and Michael Rainey all confirmed n promised a lot of times bro. Ghost is dead bro. It’s a reason kourtney left . And it’s a reason all power spin-offs are moving off STARZ.
@@youngmindelevation1176 naa I feel like Ghost might pop out when Tariq graduates to receive his inheritance then boom "what's up Lil Nigga you ain't getting shit -Ghost"
Ghost and Punisher 🔥
Ghost and shane*
@@m_zero3009 Nah, that’s Frank Castle.
No punisher without shane tho🤔
Ghost
Thomas Mr. Shelby
Jax Teller
They really need a show or movie together
"Tasha show some sympathy... I just lost the love of my life".. 😏😂😂
Lol
DAMNIT TASHA, ANGELA'S JUST A FRIEND!
Bro was so outta pocket for that 😂😂
😂😂😂😂 that shit haaad me laughing bro im like wtf
😂😂😂😂😘😘
A street cop/gang movie with these two and add shia would be insane!!
Directed by Peter Berg -Executive Produced by Michael Mann
Broooooooo
Facts
They aren’t the main characters but in Shot Caller that’s the roles they play
Facts!!!!
Wood Harris is a legend, great in every movie or show he has ever been in.
Next day air he killed it 😂😂😂
Facts I'm glad he said that wood is the man
Gotta give Wood Harris 💐 cause he played essential characters in the films he's been on and killed it
@@gregordrizzlewing7339 😂😂😂Gooch
period!!
I only watched 3 seasons of Power, but man... That cast was phenomenal. Nobody got carried.
Nobody got carried, but make no mistake about it, no one could’ve played Ghost but Omari.
Those Were Indeed the best Seasons btw
Finish it anyways, because raising kanan makes it all worth it. Trust please
@@kendalllodman no someone could, but they wouldn’t have made it as legendary. The fact that Omari has been in Hollywood for quite some time. I’m glad that this was his coming out party. Ultimately thank fiddy
Why would u do that? Only watched three seasons? Every season and episode was actually really good until the last season
Damn, Omari could have his own podcast. He’s amazing at speaking his thoughts and getting his point across 💯
right? he's so different from his characters. same with jon. both are deceptively sensitive and poetic.
He dose have his own podcast
He has his podcast lol
His podcast is called "the poetics podcast" I believe
He got 1
You could ask Omari what time it was and he would turn it into a 45 minute conversation lol
LOL with no periods.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂 nah fr
@@jesus4lyfe00😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 BRUHHHHHH
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 TRUE
Everything O said is pure facts. He definitely became ghost. He did it coming into Power as an underdog and Stars didn't give him the recognition, especially financially after he stayed dedicated to the role in so many ways. They also didn't respect his ability to adapt and elevate as both Ghost the character and Omari the actor who has the talent, and experience to direct on a major level for the series. He deserved more as an actor who is so damned talented and also, he deserved to get the opportunity to make sure Ghost had an ending that was original and great for all he went through as one of the most iconic and legendary characters on television.
50 Cent helped motivate him to not give up on Ghost and how the role was made for him and I’m glad he did
I agree with a lot of what Omari said. At the same time, none of us ever fully get the credit that we deserve. Furthermore, I’m sure Omari would admit that the role of Ghost opened so many doors, doors that have benefited him professionally and more importantly financially. Focus on the positive!
I think he deserved way more recognition for that role and so does everyone involved in power and I'm sure that led him to some opportunities but just look he hasn't don't nothing really major since it ended
Financially? No. He has said he didn’t get paid what he should have.
100 % disagree with this comment. The accolades and recognition that shows like The Sopranos, The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, and now The Last Of Us received and still receive, Power should’ve tripled that. Power was responsible for an entire network! Nobody was watching Starz prior to Power. #LetsKeepItAllTheWayReal
Omari is clearly saying the show didn’t open doors ..it’s being sold as “The Show Made Him”. Because he didn’t have any leverage before coming into it, as Jon did before The Punisher. Everyone know’s OMARI HARDWICK made that show ..Period. Great cast but Tommy portraying a “good guy” is not believable without Omari.
I believe it was Cortney Kemp didn't want him on the show
I noticed this for a while now. Jon took most of his roles as a Military man, a prisoner or criminal and a police officer and he is always perfect for every role he took. Underrated as heck
what the fuck was that bullshit jon and dwayne johnson did in the movie snitch?
Jon was perfect for frank castle
@@Mr.International82 "lemme tell you somethin' man". That line was his perfect role😂
All similar imo
He was typecasted
Power 10/10. So many people haven’t seen it. All three spin offs are a must watch
The spin offs kinda mehh but the OG 🔥🔥🔥
@@breakbad1636yeah OG POWER hits diffferenttt you dead cannot beat it but the other shows are still good on their own
Facts
I've watched force prolly 5 times already
@@MusicmyZombie is Force worth the watch??? I love RK and PB2 Ghost
He's dead on about HBO. Omar deserves more roles. Good actor
Lead roles!!!
But the rating had drop without ghost tho.. literally it had so idk why she thought the shows would thrive without ghost tho... my personal opinion tarik show is ok nah good ok.. raising kanan no words it’s like no professionalism at all they are all bad characters
@@swaggyp3869now chill on Raising Kanan that's the best book to me out of the 3 season 3 about to be lit
His character in "Next Day Air" was so believable, so vulnerable, so smart, we all knew it would propel him to huge, huge things in the future.
Most definitely!!! I sit back now & rewatch NDA and all I see is Ghost when O’s character Shavoo hits the screen.
That’s where I fell in love with him… Shavoo was gangster and fine
@@jayanahoney5981 same !!!!!!!!!
Yes when I saw that movie I was like I don’t know who this guy is but he is going to go far. Just the way he played that roll
Lmaoooo when Omari talk he gonna take you around the world till he get to the point
LMFAOOOO IDEK WHAT HES TALKIN ABOUT, HE AINT ANSWER THE QUESTION 😂😂😂😂😂
Nothing like ghost in real life lol
I love hearing how artists handle their business, view things and go through their creative process.
Love Jon and Omari is an amazing actor and Power is a classic
He such a good actor, you're almost disappointed that he nothing like "ghost" in real life. You have to appreciate greatness when you see it. Thank you Omari!
Facts that’s how I feel 😂😂😂😂
Omg same thing I literally just said 😭😭. But that shows he’s an excellent actor then 😂
The best interviewers, let the guest speak for 80% of the time.
Omar was Ghost, well he got into it and played it awesomely. Bernthal made Punisher come alive and become believable and elevated that character. Great actors and actresses are given roles to shape and make us believe they are real and loved or hated 😉 Many actors are just eye candy for the camera, but real actors live their roles and elevated them to me.
This conversation resonates as such candid, & honest discourse. WOW! it truly gives credence to the talent, humility of the underrated actor that is Omari 😮
Omari, Courtney Kemp, 50 and just power and all the main actors as a whole deserved way more credit for the original power series and all their doing after show needs to get way more respect and he deserved way more recognition
I love this level of honesty from both of them
This was DEEP. Omari dropping big knowledge
Jon, you are such a powerful person. You have inspired me to be a more powerful and happier person in life. Even if you won’t ever know me, I still appreciate what you do. You have taught me and showed me how to be a listener and just I’ve really learned a lot from your stories. You have incredible talent with all you do. I appreciate you having these interviews and you interview amazing people and you have been such a spark of light in some of the darker days I’ve had. Thank you, love your shoes and movies
2 legends. My cousin was lucky enough to spend time with omari in NYC for his magazine, stand up guy
These two powerful actors can really just elevate whatever they’re in…inspiring shit man
Ghost, Walter White, Tony Soprano. The greatest character depictions in the history of cable television. Once in a while I Google search Omari just to see how many awards he's won, and in my opinion it's never the amount he truly deserves. HE IS STARZ like Jon said. All props always due 💪🏿💪🏿
Power is definitely underrated.
How. It has 3 spin offs and a big following
@@asanijacobs7664 I hate my felony
@@asanijacobs7664that’s now, they released power season 1 in 2013-2014, Omari didn’t get the recognition he deserved until he left, year or two power started to grow again
@@asanijacobs7664 it was a while till it got major recognition
OMG! The 2 actors that play my favorite 2 characters in their genres. I hope these two link up and do a project together! 2 awesome, masculine men…I would be in heaven! 😍
Both these made there characters bigger then life respect to both💯
Great clip! And damn Omari Unfortunate this role was so great for us and wasn’t equally as great for you. I know you learned a lot but you also deserved a lot more! Stay up! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED YOUR ROLE! 🫶🏽
Love Omari but this man took 10 minutes to make a point he could've made in 30 seconds lmao.
😂Lol
My thoughts aswell
He deliberately did that so that nothing he said can be retraced to backfire
A lot of people don’t know but Omari is a world class poet and was an NFL prospect
Omari, now we need you on The Crew Has It!!! 😇
If there was ever a way to run a mile on a track just to answer a question at 40 yards…this was it. 🤣🤦🏻♂️🤣🤦🏻♂️
Omari could play John Stewart aka the green lantern in a live action movie
Either him or Sterling K. Brown
I think Omari was so good as ghost sadly that character will follow him everywhere. Everytime I see him I think ghost. And as you see even tho he deserves it causes he's an amazing actor he hasn't been in nothing major since that show ended. That horror movie and football movie is all I can think of and those weren't huge
Omari is perfect for a villain role in Creed
This was a good interview Jon show is so underrated .
Almost didn't make out Jon he looks so calm and humble. He's a great actor.
Big thanks for having this real one on your platform 🙏✨ Love your work but especially you doing your own thing with this platform ...peace , love & blessings🙏✨❤️
OHHHH WE NEED THESE GUYS TO WORK TOGETHER!!!
I NEED A COP MOVIE WITH THESE GUYS.
Two of my favorite actors ever I don’t know in a weird alternate universe it would be dope to see The Punisher vs James St Patrick/Ghost lol I seriously hope to see Omari come back somehow. Ghost has easily entered my top favorite fictional characters of all time and I really hope to see Jon return as Punisher in MCU these two really know how to bring fiction alive!
Omari woulda made a sick Blade, I love Mahershalla, but damn.
@Kyle the fuck are you talking about? It's being directed by the guy who did Lovecraft Country, 71', and White Boy Rick, and comes out in 2024 staring Mahershala Ali.
Bro bern asked a simple question and then I have no idea what ghost said
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂
James "Ghost" St.Patrick, is one of the BEST characters EVER created ; Iconic like Tony Montana 💯🦾
Omari "O" Hardwick, You did The Damn Thang with that character Bro 🦾
Need this whole episode Jon…. Please!!
I just wish Omari would just answer the question sometimes lmfao
Man I hate they cancel the punisher
I know it's very hard to understand when it was successful they could have done at least five seasons total
Simply put....i understood how good i was...but when i proved it over time they didnt give me the same treatment as other stars who were on hit shows...
I love to listen to this man speak..Omari is an inspiration and an icon to us all..Salute to you brother. 👍
Give the man his flowers 💐
Omari & Jon in a gritty HBO or Netflix series together needs to happen like yesterday!
They need to put these two with Shia in a cops gang, street TV series. Would be fuckin 🔥
He sees other people Insecurities as a way to learn things about himself. We all have insecurities but we should just enjoy life, learn and move forward.
That first 3 season were impeccable. Ghost was so good. His charisma and his personality was amazing. The suits were on point. Underrated
The accolades and recognition that shows like The Sopranos, The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, and now The Last Of Us received and still receive, Power should’ve tripled that. Power was responsible for an entire network! Nobody was watching Starz prior to Power. #LetsKeepItAllTheWayReal
Chemistry I never thought I needed. Now I have to see these 2 starring in a TV show or movie Together.
Bro is the truth, niggas in the industry don’t wanna see someone like him Win With his Mindset. He’s too Great
Sheesh what an orator goodness i completely understood all of his sentiments
Omari is Iconic!!!! Legendary!!!! AND Def a RealONE!!!!!
I still believe Ghost is alive and will return to the power universe at the perfect time.
So profound Omari is next level… nothing went over my head. I caught everything!
Imo Jon played the best version of the Punisher on camera
My favorite roll for GHOST was SPAWN!! One of the craziest super hero ever.
Wow. This was informative. I thought it was already in the script. Didn’t know they had to bill him off cause he was done with them😂 that’s wild
These 2 should do a lethal weapon reboot or a movie like that
"Come on Tommy, come on man.."
Two of my favourite characters the punisher and ghost
He will be back 🥰
Please put this brother in some more Movies /Major Movies and or series 🙏🏿
never did I ever think Jon Bernthal would be talking to Ghost lol
They were in the same movie before I’m not surprised
I love this I love Omari and everyone loves you JB!
Needs to return
This man made Power. His acting alone of the character Ghost is probably one of the most iconic portrayals of all time!
I felt this! This some real shit 💯
Big fan of Power...Ghost...Omari Hardwick and big fan Jon Bernthal (The Punisher) you 2 need to do another collaboration
...Shot Caller...great movie great casting...lets go Power crossover or a Punisher tv show or a movie...Omari can play a good Punisher villain...Barracuda
O is so fuckin talented and smart it’s unreal props to him all the time
He’s right. If you watch him on next day air his character was mysterious on that movie too.
Imagine if Jon was tommy Egan. Idont think nobody would’ve been a better replacement for Joseph sikora but him 💯
Man! Ghost was my favorite black gangster ever in a movie or show. I still don't understand why he's not a big star now. He should be in the MCU!!!
Omari speaks like a wizard from oz
Omari is soo articulate its scary
That Gandolfini comparison was spot on
Another great episode!
Man omari deserves credit and everything else
Omari did his thing as Ghost
Big ups
Had no idea this was going on. Subscribed yesterday.
Next day air shavu was basically ghost
I love Jon and this podcast the only tiny criticism I have is that Jon will ask so many questions phrased in one. All,of the questions are great questions but some get lost because he asks too many at once. Just a couple at once Jon please 🙏 😊
First thing I saw him in was Gridiron Gang and yeah I knew once I saw the 1st trailer for Power , I knew it would be a hit. But it exceeded expectations! Literally a whole universe . Crazy !
Damn I can't watch Power anymore cause my Man Ghost Died😢
I’m trying to figure out who cut Omari’s hair 😔
Jon berntgal and omari hardwick was on a movie called shot caller together if anybody wanted to know.
Punisher was dope he killed that role need another season
He was menacing in Gridon Gang 👏🏿👏🏿
This was dope !!
Some much respect both these guys! Punisher and Ghost should team up in the multiverse😂
these 2 should make a movie,, just like the acountant,, 2 brothers, 1 mayor that has his secrits, and his crazy serial killer/contract killer brother
