Michael Jai White recently talked about the rumors surrounding him. Many believed that Jai White turned down the offer of a lead role in ‘Power’. According to Michael Jai White, all the rumors about him are not true at all. During the casting of ‘Power, Jai White was engaged in a TV show with Mike Perry. Being a busy actor, Jai White was not available during the filming of Power, season 1. The rumors said that they cast the MMA practitioner for the role of Ghost. Ghost was a drug dealer who was not at all happy with his life and wanted to make some significant changes. Being a successful actor, it is natural for White not to be available for all the projects he gets offered.

Omari Hardwick later took up the role of Ghost. The character was able to garner the attention of the public and was later nominated for the 2017 BETS Awards. In an interview with DJ Vlad, Jai White mentioned that Hardwick is a good friend of his and that he is happy about the success of the series. Now, he has once again provided some clarity on the matter.
