How Far Will Empire's Lyon Family Go to Regain Control of Their Company?

Lucious Lyon has lost control of the Empire—but when the show returns on March 30 after its painfully long winter hiatus, he'll do everything he can to get it back.
"The Lyons will do anything to get control of their company," executive producer Brian Grazer teased to E! News' Will Marfuggi on the red carpet at the show's Paleyfest panel. "But it's how it all goes down…"
We'll pick up immediately where we left off at the end of the midseason finale, with poor Rhonda (Caitlin Doubleday) at the foot of the stairs. Lucious (Terrence Howard) is reeling from losing control of his company to the scheming secretly married Mimi (Marisa Tomei) and Camilla (Naomi Campbell), thanks to a sabotaging vote from youngest son Hakeem (Bryshere "Yazz" Grey).

As we saw in the trailer for the show's return, it seems that Hakeem will find himself in charge of the music empire his father built—which does not leave dear old dad too happy. "It's the battle of Lucious against his sons," explains Yazz. "It's not just against Hakeem, it's against his sons. It's intense. It's the family. Without family, there's no Empire."
