'Empire' Season 2 Spoilers: What Will Happen To Lucious and Jamal's Relationship?
The upcoming return of "Empire" season 2 is expected to see Lucious Lyon doing all he can to save his reputation.
It was reported that Lucious Lyon, played by Terrence Howard, will be persistent in gaining back his power in the upcoming return of the series. The previous episode of the season saw him going as far as ruining his own son's music career.
The midseason finale of the series "Empire" season 2 showed Jameson, played by William Fichtner, finding out that Jamal, played by Jussie Smollett, was messing around with Skye Summers, played by Alicia Keys.
The two kissed in a previous episode after working on a song together. At first, Skye felt as though there was something progressing in their relationship. However, upon realizing that Jamal is not attracted to her since he is gay, she did not pursue their relationship.
Moreover, the executive producer of the series, Irene Chaiken, also shared some details about the father-and-son relationship and how the dynamics will change in the upcoming episodes.
According to TV Line, Lucious' actions will surely affect Jamal's career in a negative way. Chaiken explained, "Without wanting to give away a whole lot of story, Jamal has definitively said 'I'm gay.' And I believe Jamal can say that, even if he might have had sex with a woman once or twice. Who Jamal has sex with is nobody else's business. We all know that, yet that's the fight we fight as gay people. But then there's Lucious Lyon — and Lucious will stoop low to get what he wants."
With that, fans can expect that the father and son will be faced with many challenges in the episodes to come as he tries to regain his status and his Empire back.
"Empire" is expected to return on Fox this Mar. 30.
