The 27-year-old singer, who was arrested and charged on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon on Tuesday, had been promised a part in the Starz show by his friend 50 Cent, but network executives put a stop to his casting because of his reputation, reported the New York Post.
"50 promised Chris a big role on 'Power,' playing a drug dealer. But 50 didn't consult the network first, and execs were not happy when they found out about it...," a source said.
Despite executives' apparent reservations, 50 Cent is still determined to get his pal on his show.
"Tune into 'Power' next season, because you will see Chris Brown," he said.
