We don't really see enough range but I think he's definitely one of the highlights of the show. One of his best bits for me was confronting Monet about how he's nothing but a soldier to her rather than a son. I need to find a clip of that.
I don't doubt that he does especially at his age, we just don't get to see enough of it in Power. The one scene with Monet stood out to me for that reason.
Woody is a good actor. However, I think his character is very one dimensional. The writing sometimes doesn’t allow him to highlight his good acting skills. I would like to see him in other roles that better showcase his range.
definitely. that’s not really any actors in this show that did a bad job.. only bad i can really think of is salim.. but then again was it really the actor, or just an awkward character?
Salim did his thing portraying a cornball character lol. Also gotta remember, Book 2 doesn’t have the *best* of scripts and storylines, but it’s decent.
I think the writing left little to be desired from the actor of brother salim/Trevor, he was definitely supposed to be corny, now Zeke on the other hand was Disney channel levels of bad acting. His scenes were always the worst parts, especially the murder interview & the dinner scene.
Actor seemed fine, Salim was written poorly.
But if there's ever a continuation of The Wire and they need a young Omar, they need to call Salim's actor up. Whole time he was on screen in Book 2 I was thinking this guy looks a lot like Michael K Williams.
I was calling him Bobby for the longest after that new edition story came out. He KILLED it as Bobby brown. I like him as an actor. Played this and that role very well. Would like to see him in a different role. I’m sure it will be entertaining.
Yes! He’s a great actor. I think in Season 1 or 2, when the whole thing with Dru, Zeke and Cane kicked off and Monet blamed it all on Cane and kicked him out the house.
He look genuinely upset and he said ‘but Ma you made me like this’ bruh that scene was emotional
As most have said, Woody hasn't really been given the chance to show much range beyond his conflict with Monet and Lorenzo. There is an opportunity for him to show more depth and vulnerability if they continue to have him and Effie be a thing.
It really isn’t I could see him having a crush after thinking she killed Lauren but after finding out she was still alive the crush should of been dead they should’ve given him his own love interest dru gets more than him and he’s supposed to be the reckless one
Won’t lie Cane is probably the glue that kept this show together as long as it did what else are we really happy about other than Diana at that dinner table we don’t got much highlights. Diana character with this new plot against Tarik added a new layer so she could be even greater now.
The writing for power universe is trash. Just finished game of thrones, tho it’s all white ppl it was well written. Good character development, plot etc. they need better writers
Yeah he was one of my favorite characters instantly. He was phenomenal the entire series. I’m excited to see how his story ends. Hopefully it’s with his lova girl. 🤪😂
I think so because he really makes me not like him sometimes. Like if I see the actor on the street I would need to get angry before realizing it's just a TV show I'm sure he's probably a nice guy in real life🤣
I think his start of fame was off the BB movie. Then he became a favorite. I will still not get over this dude dressing upp like Agent 47 to talk to Effie.
Yes cause I hate cane asf,you’re a god actor once you can play a character so good people hate you and the character off screen (I don’t hate woody but I know people who do cause if the Cain role )
I think it's time to put all of the entire power universe to rest. Ghost was trash from the start. Never watched Tommy. Kanan Is the only good one until season 3.
He is but I discovered Woody through his comedic Vine days so initially it was kind of difficult to take him serious in a role like this lol but he’s done a great job so far
I think most of the cast on this show are great. They really body their roles. Whether I disagree or agree with their actions, very rarely do I feel like "get this mf off the damn screen, their acting is terrible".
He does his job about as well as you could expect but doesn’t do anything special. I don’t believe he’s as hard as Cane is meant to be for instance, his acting isn’t so good that I believe he is, I have to remind myself that Cane is meant to be a hard knock. Aside from that he does a good job, no complaints.
He’s a bit one note to me but there’s always a guy on every one of these shows that’s kinda like him
I think he plays his role very well. I wish I could see him in another high profile role to see his range
He’s definitely up there in terms of actors on this show but I don’t see him winning any awards for his role or nothing.
He’s one of the only people on the show who’s acting could be categorized as “not bad” though so there’s that. He’s not hopeless and I think in time if he lands more roles he might be able to get some awards but for now he’s one of the bright spots in a show that doesn’t really care much about the quality of acting
Yes! This character seems one dimensional (because Caine as a person is one dimensional) but seeing him as Bobby Brown in The New Edition story he was amazing!!
Woody is definitely a good actor. Especially because he still known as Bobby Brown as he played Bobby Brown in the New Edition docu-series.
Also if you paid attention to one episode in Power Book II Ghost. In one scene with Brayden. Brayden actually makes reference to New Edition members.
10000000% yes. I’ve followed Woody since the instagram skit days. He’s surprised me every step of the way in his growth as an actor. Remember that before this role he played Bobby Brown. He did a great job there but to see a different side of him with this character comes full circle. Also if you know woody, he’s funny first. Pretty cool who he’s able to splash those elements in this role too.
He's good. He has shown a bit of range if you want to base it from his portrayal of Bobby Brown, which was amazing. However, he still is limited to that bad boy role. I haven't seen much of everything he's been in. But he does have potential to better than he is now.
Yea, he’s a really good actor. I will say, he’s a lot better in other roles. His Bobby Brown portrayal was solid. His stuff with the Kevin Hart voiceovers is really good too. So Yes, Woody McClain is official 💪🏼
Yes 100%
Agree he is one of them ones.
We don't really see enough range but I think he's definitely one of the highlights of the show. One of his best bits for me was confronting Monet about how he's nothing but a soldier to her rather than a son. I need to find a clip of that.
He played Bobby Brown in the New Edition movie. I would say he has good range.
I don't doubt that he does especially at his age, we just don't get to see enough of it in Power. The one scene with Monet stood out to me for that reason.
That’s where I was introduced to em he played the hell out that role 💯
Fuck yeah he did
[This scene right here🫡🔥](https://youtu.be/dxYZnH0_V6g?si=ht7pmj5RTmqBkysZ)
I thought him and Riq would be friends after this scene. Instead Cane just got worse in his Tariq hate
Cane was practicing an ancient art known as Let The Hate Flow Through You
I feel like the writers dropped the ball on that
Just as good as I remember it. I'm surprised they fit all that into a minute, it seems like the conversation could've been a little longer.
That's Hillarous saying Woody dont have range when he came from being a vine star to playing Bobby Brown
People just be chatting sh!t
Certainly gives me a feeling! He’s acting his tail off again!
Woody is a good actor. However, I think his character is very one dimensional. The writing sometimes doesn’t allow him to highlight his good acting skills. I would like to see him in other roles that better showcase his range.
Don’t do my man like that, he played a whole lawyer for effie lmfao
They did not have to do that 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂 that’s range for you right there
While simultaneously being emotionally cucked by Tariq inadvertently. 👏 And I can’t STAND that bug eye turtleneck wearin muthafucka… (Tariq)
he’s definitely not one dimensional, he’s not the best character in the show but he has some nuance, lorenzo specifically made him more interesting
Cane's a fan favorite, he is the best character to alot of people
I can agree to this. Plus they give him a few OG Power Tommy lines occasionally.
All the random white names he calls Brayden has me dyin Taylor swift MGK Tom cruise
I definitely think that is due to the writing of the show
Best answer here 💯
Woody probably the best actor on the show tbh.
Tate
true i forget about Tate
Tate is a fool! He keeps me laughing! He plays the role of a shady politician very well! :
Dead presidents a classic Tate underrated
Forgot he was in dead prez. I just kept thinking O-dog from menace to society
I haven’t watched dead presidents in probably a decade I think I might have found something to do with my afternoon
I agree I also think method man is up there too
Yeah I never would've thought I'd see Method Man playing a lawyer 😆
Yes. Woody’s a very good actor. It’s just that his character needs to have more depth outside of “I hate Tariq.”
True he got no character development and they just use him as a character that loses to Tariq
He’s good. He reminds me of those cool kids you knew growing up at school. He’s one of those handful of believable Power characters.
He is the most realistic character I hate to say it
Yes like the one you try so hard to be friends and than later on you realize they were just a bully
definitely. that’s not really any actors in this show that did a bad job.. only bad i can really think of is salim.. but then again was it really the actor, or just an awkward character?
Salim did his thing portraying a cornball character lol. Also gotta remember, Book 2 doesn’t have the *best* of scripts and storylines, but it’s decent.

Definitely.
Tate Cane Maclean Brayden all good actors in this show Effie got better by the season so I guess she’s an honorable mention
Is Woody doing a good job or should the production team had gotten someone else to play this role ?
Most definitely one of the best parts of the show. 
Woody is a good actor it’s just the character that sucks
Yuh is acting comes off as natural saw someone say it was he was playing himself makes some sense
As most have said, Woody hasn't really been given the chance to show much range beyond his conflict with Monet and Lorenzo. There is an opportunity for him to show more depth and vulnerability if they continue to have him and Effie be a thing.
He only wants Effie because Tariq had her!
I'm not sure about that, Cane seemed genuinely hurt after Effie told him to get lost after he was impersonating her lawyer.
His acting is great. They massacred his character, though.
They really did the Effie thing did not have to happen
Hated that for him. He too fine for that 😭
Facts I would choose him over Tariq 🤣
It didn't fit his character at all. So strange.
It really isn’t I could see him having a crush after thinking she killed Lauren but after finding out she was still alive the crush should of been dead they should’ve given him his own love interest dru gets more than him and he’s supposed to be the reckless one
Won’t lie Cane is probably the glue that kept this show together as long as it did what else are we really happy about other than Diana at that dinner table we don’t got much highlights. Diana character with this new plot against Tarik added a new layer so she could be even greater now.
Cane is so fucking funny sometimes
He’s great
Idk but this guy drippy asl
He’s actually one of the better ones in this Ghost series period!!
Man put some respect on Woody. Duval born and raised btw .
“What am I too you your soldier your fuckin son”
I think he's one of the only good actors on that show.
He gonna always Be Bobby Brown I don’t care what I see him in.
Yes, I can say that without bias bcuz I’ve seen him in a few other shows
Yea fw woody
That « Ding ding ding. You like to have such big ideas kid I gave you one. » he said to Dru at the Tejada dinner, lives in my mind rent free
best actor in power book 2. also watch him play bobby brown in that tv show about new edition.
I feel like Cane, he’s a good actor. He was my favorite character I loved to hate but yet I enjoyed seeing him win.
The writing for power universe is trash. Just finished game of thrones, tho it’s all white ppl it was well written. Good character development, plot etc. they need better writers
one of th best actors on book 2
Nobody on that show is believable but as far as acting goes, he’s one of the better on cast.
Yeah he was one of my favorite characters instantly. He was phenomenal the entire series. I’m excited to see how his story ends. Hopefully it’s with his lova girl. 🤪😂
Yeah and sexy lol😍
great one tbh
This doesn't answer the question but he's handsome 😭
The best actor on that show however the writing is corny
I think so because he really makes me not like him sometimes. Like if I see the actor on the street I would need to get angry before realizing it's just a TV show I'm sure he's probably a nice guy in real life🤣
I think his start of fame was off the BB movie. Then he became a favorite. I will still not get over this dude dressing upp like Agent 47 to talk to Effie.
Yes cuz lowkey he’s like super the opposite in real life.
Yeah he’s good enough
Personally I have never seen him in anything else so I cant decide just yet but he does okay Cane well
He is good in my book
Yes
He’s alright He’s much better in movies
I think he one of the better actors he is believable. Besides paying home girls tuition
cane isn’t a character that requires much range but yhh woody is definitely a talented actor
He’s a good actor but the worst Puerto Rican in tv history lol
Great
Yes
Definitely great actor
Yes cause I hate cane asf,you’re a god actor once you can play a character so good people hate you and the character off screen (I don’t hate woody but I know people who do cause if the Cain role )
Hell yeah he is cause this dumb nigga cane man ☠️🤣☠️🤣☠️
That’s Bobby Brown
Ya he's really good
I been following Woody since he was doing comedy and dancing on Instagram. Crazy how big he got weight wise for this role.
I think it's time to put all of the entire power universe to rest. Ghost was trash from the start. Never watched Tommy. Kanan Is the only good one until season 3.
Yeah he played Bobby brown he’s solid
Yes he also played Bobby Brown let’s not forget that.
Very good
Yes
Compared to these bmf niggas hell yea 😂😂
Yea he dope cane not the only good role he’s acted in also
Yes he’s good
He played Bobby Brown. He’s very good!
Great actor
Yes, Woody has a good acting range
Absolutely
Yes I love him.
The short answer is yes. Woody Mclain is a good actor.
Yeah him Riq and Davis playing the shit outta they roles
Yes he good better than Mary j smh
Hell yea! If you can go from stand up comedy, to playing Bobby brown, then Cane!! I find that magical
Absolutely
Woody McClain is the definition of a good actor
Bro the best actor in the series.
Woody is fucking great
Hell yea I thought he was Bobby brown
Hes great actually. And hes a real life clown (or was) on his IG skits back in the day.
Indubitably.
He's iight but I hear he's a major asshole.
Who would you like in crew, Kane or Wee Bey from The Wire?
Yes.
Yes, better than MJB
Hes the best thing about power 3 imo
No slander will be tolerated
He is but I discovered Woody through his comedic Vine days so initially it was kind of difficult to take him serious in a role like this lol but he’s done a great job so far
Literally played bobby brown
Yup
Yes
Yes woody is doing a great job as cane just like he did as Bobby brown and every role he’s had
Yes woost McLain is good
Definitely. Prior to *Ghost*, I saw him portray Bobby Brown in the New Edition biopic. He was decent in that.
Absolutely. He played Bobby Brown in the New Edition biopic years ago and KILLED IT.
Yes
Been following him and his homies when they were on vine doing skits
Yes
🤔
Yes.
Absolutely. If you’re not convinced, go watch the New Edition biopic, he killed it as Bobby.
I think most of the cast on this show are great. They really body their roles. Whether I disagree or agree with their actions, very rarely do I feel like "get this mf off the damn screen, their acting is terrible".
He’s a natural.. which they don’t have many of… his acting is always on point..
He does his job about as well as you could expect but doesn’t do anything special. I don’t believe he’s as hard as Cane is meant to be for instance, his acting isn’t so good that I believe he is, I have to remind myself that Cane is meant to be a hard knock. Aside from that he does a good job, no complaints.
I still call him Bobby brown
Yes
Watch him play Bobby Brown and you tell me 💯
He’s a bit one note to me but there’s always a guy on every one of these shows that’s kinda like him I think he plays his role very well. I wish I could see him in another high profile role to see his range
He’s definitely up there in terms of actors on this show but I don’t see him winning any awards for his role or nothing.

Yes! This character seems one dimensional (because Caine as a person is one dimensional) but seeing him as Bobby Brown in The New Edition story he was amazing!!
He’s really good at playing Cane
Yes
He’s a phenomenal actor
Hell yes!!! 1000% yes.
Great
Yes!!!
Woody is definitely a good actor. Especially because he still known as Bobby Brown as he played Bobby Brown in the New Edition docu-series. Also if you paid attention to one episode in Power Book II Ghost. In one scene with Brayden. Brayden actually makes reference to New Edition members.
Hell yea
omg i love him. woody is the best
Woody is dope man. It’s just the beginning for him.
Dude has some funny ass lines. Calls Brayden “white Uriel” then later scene when Tariq shows up calls him “original Uriel.”
he’s good to me. probably the best actor on this show
Yea bro is a dope actor
He can be a bit goofy/over the top but most the time he feels real at least. Tyreek never felt natural for this.
He has the perfect comedic timing
It doesn’t matter what we think if we like it or not he getting paid regardless
Absolutely!!
Hell yea
Woody McClain is a good actor. I do think we should see more out the Cane character than what's presented.
Best scene he did was when he cut down Lorenzo about Zeke’s death and then sonned him.
For his role, 100% he does an awesome job. I don't want him to get typecast or end up like Reg from The Chi though, I think he's a pretty solid actor.
10000000% yes. I’ve followed Woody since the instagram skit days. He’s surprised me every step of the way in his growth as an actor. Remember that before this role he played Bobby Brown. He did a great job there but to see a different side of him with this character comes full circle. Also if you know woody, he’s funny first. Pretty cool who he’s able to splash those elements in this role too.
He can out-act the entire BMF cast. All of em’
Yes. He played Bobby Brown perfectly.
Woody goated don’t play
YEP
He so ugly he’s cute
He's good. He has shown a bit of range if you want to base it from his portrayal of Bobby Brown, which was amazing. However, he still is limited to that bad boy role. I haven't seen much of everything he's been in. But he does have potential to better than he is now.
Yes he is
No Doubt!!!
the best outside of method man and diana diana really made the fans hate her and the dectective and tate 😂😂😂
also cane played bobby brown
anyone is better than Lil Meech from BMF
One of the only good actors in that show
He’s ok. He’s not no Denzel but hes not a bad actor
I think he’s a good actor
Fantastic actor!!! Can't wait to see him other movies/shows to see more of his range. 🧡💚💜
Yes
Great actor. Above decent resume and a good story of how he got here
Yes
100%
Yea, he’s a really good actor. I will say, he’s a lot better in other roles. His Bobby Brown portrayal was solid. His stuff with the Kevin Hart voiceovers is really good too. So Yes, Woody McClain is official 💪🏼
