Jussie Smollett may return to “Empire” before the sixth and final season comes to an end. Jussie’s character Jamal Lyon was written off of the final two episodes of Season 5 after he was accused of staging a racist and homophobic attack against himself in late January in Chicago. The City of Chicago is suing Smollett to recoup the costs of the investigation. He filed a counter suit against the city, his alleged co-conspirators the Osundairo brothers and several officials, including former Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson. Showrunner Brett Mahoney revealed that there have been discussions about bringing Jussie back to the show.
