AceShowbiz – Vivica A. Fox hinted “Empire” fans can expect a feature-length finale once the coronavirus crisis is over.
The 18th episode of the sixth season of the show served as its finale back in April (20) after the pandemic cut the show short when production was halted.
However, according to Fox, show bosses are planning one final instalment to round out the hip-hop drama, with the star telling U.S. TV show “Extra“, “That last script is going to be off the chain.”
“I’m hoping once coronavirus is over, we can get a two-hour finale movie of Empire for the fans,” she revealed, confirming the idea had been discussed.
“Absolutely… Lee Daniels, who is the creator of the show, mentioned it and said the fans would welcome that with open arms,” she smiled.
The star also reiterated comments that she’d welcome back actor Jussie Smollett, who was axed from the show after he was accused of faking a police report about a racist attack outside his Chicago, Illinois apartment last year.
“Oh, listen, we love Jussie. Jussie will always be family,” Fox insisted. “The fans miss Jussie. I would welcome him back if we did the finale, absolutely.”
