One of the biggest hits in recent television history, Empire, returns for a third season full of drama, twists and excitement.

At a recent press day in Los Angeles I had the pleasure of seating down with Bryshere Y. Gray to talk about the journey of his character Hakeem Lyon in the new season, and more.

Season 3 premiere of Empire airs Wednesday, Sept. 21 on Fox.
