As reported by Variety, Mo McRae (Wild, Sons Of Anarchy) will be guest-starring on Empire next season. McRae will be playing someone named J-Poppa, who is apparently “a handsome, easy-going guy.” He’ll be an assistant to Terrence Howard’s Lucious Lyon, and he’ll be a love interest for Becky, the character played by Gabourey Sidibe. His character will only stick around for a three-episode storyline, though, so apparently he won’t be a very good assistant and/or love interest. Or maybe he’ll get killed off in a dramatic explosion? Do characters on Empire ever get killed off in dramatic explosions?
