The Lyon family may be down, but they sure aren’t out in this Season 5 preview of the Fox juggernaut.
The series returns on Wednesday, September 26.
Empire revolves around the Lyon family and their media company, Empire Entertainment. The founder, Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard), is the king of hip-hop, but his company and reign are constantly threatened by his family, including his ex-wife, Cookie Lyon (Taraji P. Henson), his sons, Jamal (Jussie Smollett), Hakeem (Bryshere “Yazz” Gray) and Andre (Trai Byers); and a volatile and competitive music industry. Empire also stars Gabourey Sidibe as Becky, Serayah as Tiana, Ta’Rhonda Jones as Porsha and others.
