Fans of Power Book 3: Raising Kanan have been left wondering—where is Famous in Season 4? Antonio Ortiz’s character played a crucial role in previous seasons, acting as both a loyal friend to Kanan Stark (Mekai Curtis) and an aspiring rapper trying to navigate the harsh realities of the streets. However, his sudden absence in Season 4 has sparked speculation.
So, what happened to Ortiz’s character Famous, and will he return? Here are the details.
What happened to Antonio Ortiz’s Famous in Power Book 3: Raising Kanan Season 4?
Antonio Ortiz’s Famous has been missing from recent episodes of Power Book 3 Raising Kanan Season 4. However, clues from an upcoming episode suggest an update on his whereabouts.
The upcoming Episode 5, titled “The Nail That Sticks Up,” set to premiere on April 4, 2025, has shared details on Famous’ absence from the current plotline. The official description reads, “Joyce’s condition worsens. Famous’s mother desperately tries to find him.”
This clarifies that Famous has disappeared and likely doesn’t want to connect with her, following her betrayal in Season 3. Nonetheless, his mother is still searching for him but likely won’t find him, unless he wants to make his whereabouts known. This shows that the character is still very much involved in the current storyline but has been absent as his arc on the show demands it.
The predecessor season focused on Famous as he was arrested on the suspicions of murdering career criminal, Freddy Williams. His relationship with his mother strains when she submits the gun as evidence in case, making things worse for him. Though he managed to secure his release, the damage to their relationship was irreversible. Feeling betrayed, Famous distanced himself from her and has been keeping a low profile ever since. Despite his absence, Famous remains an integral part of the storyline. As of now, it remains unclear when he will return to the plot.
Power Book III: Raising Kanan episodes are available to stream on Starz.
