I am trying to build a view that shows the project owner of the cross project predecessor. I found text mode for other fields like "predecessor projected completion date" and "Predecessor project percent complete" but I would love one that displayed the Project Owner assigned to the predecessor.

what's the text mode you're using for "Predecessor project percent complete"?
In general - the number of hops might be an issue with something like {predecessor}.{project}.{owner}.{name} because you want to display the name not just ownerID (a property on the project)
You could try setting a calculated field on the task, and display the field in the report.
That's right. I often use calc fields to "bridge" the gap between two objects that are too many hops away. It's great workaround to a problem that Workfront has had since inception.
I am curious to see the code the OP is using as well.
