Character actor Malcolm Mays was roughly ejected from the NY premiere of “Power Book II: Ghost” Season 4 on Thursday, June 6.
There is no word what caused organizers to kick Mays out of the theater.
The TikTok user who uploaded the video said cops threw Mays out of the premiere because they didn’t know who he was. When they found out he was an actor in the ‘Power’ universe, they let him back in.
Mary J. Blige, 50 Cent and cast members of “Ghost” attended the premiere.
Mays, 34, plays Uncle Lou in “Power Book III: Raising Kanan.” Cell phone video shows him being forcibly removed from the theater by 2 cops who held him by each arm. A woman in a red evening gown tried to calm him down.
“Do you know who I am?” he asks a cop outside the venue. When the cop said no, Mays responded, “That’s the f*****g problem!”.
According to the Internet Mays is the nephew of Stanley Williams, founder of the notorious Crips street gang.
