Ghanaian actor and comedian Sargent Dee, best known for his iconic role in the *Cantata* series on GTV, has resurfaced on social media after a long period of absence. In a recent TikTok video, the actor, whose real name is Reindorf Doe, appeared to be in a reflective mood, sparking both nostalgia and curiosity among fans.
In the video posted on his TikTok page (@sargentdee2), Sargent Dee is seen sitting next to an unplastered wall, singing along to Shatta Wale’s *Street Crown*. He’s wearing a full-grown beard and, halfway through, dons a black fedora hat as he continues to sing and make expressive gestures. While the actor didn’t speak in the video, his physical appearance was noticeably different—fans observed he appeared slimmer compared to his earlier days on-screen.
Many were surprised by his new look and couldn’t help but speculate on what might have caused his change in appearance.
**Who is Sargent Dee?**
Sargent Dee became a household name in Ghana in the early 2000s due to his standout role in the *Cantata* series, where he starred alongside actors like Abena Achiaa, Julie Juu, and Efo Sagaribiwe. His comedic talent made him a beloved figure on Ghanaian television. Beyond *Cantata*, he also appeared in several movies, including *Atta Mortuary Man* and *Agya Koo Gbengbentus*.
However, after his role in the *Cantata* series, Sargent Dee’s screen presence became sporadic, and he largely withdrew from the public eye. His most recent public appearance was in 2024 when he joined other celebrities to campaign for John Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the general elections.
**Mixed Reactions from Fans**

**A Return to the Spotlight?**
