Most of the newer flagship Android phones are now OTG capable, and with this you could play anything of from a USB flash drive with just an adapter.
But in your case the issue is that a hard drive needs power to work, and the phone could not power that drive. So you'll need a special adapter with an input for a plug in cable to plug in the hard drive to electrical power in the same time plugged in to the phone.
