Season 4 of Empire seems to be shaping up to be a return to some sense of normalcy but with the twist that things are going to change just enough to let people know that a very big shift has occurred. After all things have been happening at such a pace that Lucious is no longer the man he once was and could possibly be moving away from that role as much as possible, if only to make others around him wonder just what’s going on. Whether he’s a new man or not is going to be something that only he’ll know for while yet.
It’s going to be an interesting season.
5. They’ll be paying tribute to Prince.
There’s been word that a Prince song will be played during the season that will pay respects to the fallen icon. This is something that a lot of shows have done since Prince passed on, and it’s been touching how much regard so many have managed to give the world famous star. His life was an inspiration to a lot of people and it just seems right that he would show up on a show like this, at least for a brief moment.
4. Forrest Whitaker can sing.
Forrest will show off the fact that he has a set of pipes on him this season and will also emerge as a mentor to Lucious once again, as he was already a mentor to a younger Lucious back in the day. The greatest thing is that there’s already chemistry between Forrest and Terrence Howard since the two have known each other for some time. That makes everything a little smoother since they know how to react to one another.
3. Lucious is back to his old self.
The amnesia that he’s finally overcome seems to have made him into a much more docile and decent person, but now that he’s beginning to remember things it could be that he will go back to his old ways. However it could be that he’ll change just enough to become what might be an estimate of a good man. It’s a hard thing to tell since Lucious is quite adept at making people believe what he wants them to.
2. We’re going to see a new side of Cookie.
As the new CEO you might not see her jumping across a table at anyone again but you will certainly see her telling people how it is just like always. Cooke is not a nice person when it comes time to conduct business and that’s not bound to change. But now that she’s in charge she’ll likely have to be much more calm and reserved in how she deals with people. Look for her to shred them as much as is possible from a verbal standpoint at least.
1. The focus is returning to the Lyon family.
There have been a lot of guest stars on the show and a lot of fans feel that this has taken away from the story. In this season the focus will be placed back on the Lyon family in an attempt to bring them back into the main part of the story.
It should be a wild season for Empire.
