The entire Jussie Smollett situation has caused quite a stir to say the least. According to TMZ, there’s high anxiety among the “Empire” cast and crew since Fox hasn’t renewed the show for a sixth season yet.
To clarify, this past season, Fox waited until a few weeks before the season 4 finale was set to air in May to announce season 5 was coming.
In regards to Jussie’s character, Lee Daniels and company have already announced that Jamal is being removed from the final two episodes of season 5.
The show is set to return Wednesday night.
