Mark those calendars because ‘Empire’ returns to FOX on September 27th!

The Lee Daniels music drama is strutting into its fourth season and is re-affixing its focus to central characters – The Lyon family.

According to producers, that means less spotlight on guest stars.

Speaking on the much-needed shift, Daniels recently said:

“When we start to focus too much on guest stars we lose who it is that the fans want to watch,” Daniels says, noting he pays attention to what the audience of the show is saying about the show. “They’re obsessed with the Lyons. They’re obsessed with family. They’re obsessed with the story of Lucious and Cookie and Jamal and Andre and Hakeem.”

To add an exclamation mark, FOX have unleashed a titillating trailer. Check it out below…
