Producers at hit TV show Empire are still hoping to resume production after the coronavirus lockdown and shoot the ending they’d originally planned.
In separate statements, Empire creators and executive producers Lee Daniels and Danny Strong addressed the abrupt ending of their show, explaining that while the 18th episode of Empire’s sixth season, airing on 21 April, will be the last for the foreseeable future, they hope production may be resumed one day to give it the send-off it deserves. “I’m heartbroken we aren’t getting to shoot the finale we wanted – at least not yet,” said Daniels. “We had an ending for the series planned that we all loved, and hopefully someday we’ll be able to film it and give the series its proper conclusion,”
