Maybe we'll get lucky and Joe Odagiri might show up for at least something down the road before Zi-O ends. Even a brief cameo like Hiroshi Fujioka's (Hongo Takeshi/Ichigo Rider) in Agito's Project G4 wouldn't be so bad.

All hope is not lost. If anything this and Knight's actor wanting to return to Zi-O makes a Ryuki tribute likely, assuming they didn't get rid of it once Kamen Rider Woz debuts.

Odagiri isn't coming back. Reportedly they tried to get him back for this, but he refused point-blank.

I heard that it's because he hates Shirakura or something, because Shirakura was against everything in Kuuga. So tyat could be why he refused, because Shirakura is the producer of Zi-O

It stinks that he can't come back but we have to respect his decisions. Hopefully, their grudge can die down over time even if it is hopeful thinking.

I actually didn't know that, but I can certainly agree with the sentiment of hating Shirakura.

You must also remember, though, that he has previously said he'd only come back for a specific Kuuga special done by the original writer. He loves Kuuga, but hates mainstream tokusatsu, so he'd never come back for a big commercial thing like this.
