Empire: Season Six Renewal for FOX Series, Will Jussie Smollett Return?

by Jessica Pena, April 30, 2019

Empire TV show on FOX: (canceled or renewed?)

Empire‘s reign will continue. FOX just announced they’ve renewed the TV show for a sixth season.

The drama series revolves around the Empire Entertainment company, founder Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard), his three sons (Bryshere Y. Gray, Jussie Smollett, and Trai Byers), and their mother, Cookie (Taraji P. Henson).

Despite the behind-the-scenes drama with Jussie Smollett, ratings for Empire have remained steady during the show’s fifth season. So far, the FOX series is averaging a 1.32 rating in the 18-49 demo and 4.594 million viewers. That’s around a 25% drop in ratings from season four.

As for Smollet’s status on the series, TVLine says there are no plans for his character Jamal to return at this moment.

Read more about the season six renewal below:

FOX has renewed the hit drama EMPIRE for a sixth season, it was announced today by Michael Thorn, President, Entertainment for FOX Entertainment.

“EMPIRE continues to break barriers with its emotionally powerful storytelling, and it remains a core part of the FOX legacy,” said Thorn. “We want to thank everyone on the show – Taraji, Terrence and the entire cast, as well as Lee, Danny, Brett, Sanaa, Brian, Francie, Dennis and their teams – all of whom have done a tremendous job this season. We know there are so many more stories to tell, and we can’t wait to see what they have in store for Season Six.”

On tomorrow’s all-new episode, “My Fate Cries Out,” airing Wednesday, May 1 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), on FOX, Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) gets picked up by AUSA Conway (guest star Alicia Coppola), while Lucious (Terrence Howard) is visited by his past. Becky (Gabourey Sidibe), Hakeem (Bryshere “Yazz” Gray) and Andre (Trai Byers) devise a plan to save Empire by putting on a show with special guests Sevyn Streeter and Ty Dolla $ign. Meanwhile, Andre helps Empire with an assist from the last person the Lyons expect and Cookie may never forgive Lucious for what he’s done, leading up to next week’s heart-stopping finale.

From Imagine Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television, EMPIRE was created by Academy Award nominee Lee Daniels and Emmy Award winner Danny Strong, and is executive-produced by Daniels, Strong, Academy Award- and Emmy Award-winning producer Brian Grazer, Francie Calfo, Sanaa Hamri, Dennis Hammer, Matt Pyken and Diane Ademu-John. Brett Mahoney is executive producer and showrunner for the series. “Like” EMPIRE on Facebook at facebook.com/EmpireFOX. Follow the series on Twitter @EmpireFOX and join the discussion using #Empire.
