In this episode of Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon, Grammy nominated actor Omari Hardwick takes center stage where we dive into his exhilarating role in the Paramount + film, Star Trek: Section 31.

From athlete to actor, Omari's journey is nothing short of inspiring, and he opens up about transitioning from starring in the film as a cast member to experiencing it as a fan. We unpack his dynamic portrayal of Alok, a Section 31 agent, and explore the creative process behind the film. Omari also shares the deep personal connection he has with poetry, a passion he's nurtured since the tender age of 11, which has earned him a Grammy nomination for Best Spoken Word Poetry Album. Our conversation with Omari goes beyond his role in Star Trek, shedding light on his multifaceted career that spans poetry, theater, music, and film. We uncover the inspiration behind his new single and the impact of working alongside the legendary Michelle Yeoh. We reflect on his past collaborations with industry giants like Kevin Costner and Zack Snyder, and there's an excited anticipation for future stories within the Star Trek universe. Tune in for an engaging mix of career reflections, collaborative triumphs, and the thrill of what's next.
