Y’all, Woody McClain is leveling up, and we are HERE for it. If you know him from Power Book II: Ghost or The New Edition Story, you know he’s talented—but 2025? Sis… he’s directing, fathering, and flexing all at once. Let’s get into it.
From Screen to Director’s Chair
Woody’s directorial debut is a fan-funded rom-com. The plot?
A disgraced podcaster finds anonymous love letters.
He reinvents himself as a heartbreak guru.
Plot twist: the author is his actual love interest.
He’s running this via Kickstarter, with Lil Rel Howery directing. Translation: comedy, heart, and big energy—this project is already a whole mood.,
"I wanted to make a story that shows the beauty of human connection and self-discovery, while still being fun and heartfelt,” Woody said.
Baby Fever: Twins Incoming
Hold up… Woody’s about to be a dad—twin girls, Emily and Amaya, dropping in November!
The baby shower? Bows + butterflies theme, photo booth moments, and a game of Nursery Karaoke. Cute AND musical.
We are ready for all the baby content. Double trouble, but make it adorable.
Career Glow-Up
Woody’s been breaking typecast chains for years. From villains to soulful leads, he’s showing us versatility in action.
Now? Actor + filmmaker + dad. Someone hand him an award already.
Keep Up with Woody
