An array of crew members of TV series ‘Empire’ who feel
betrayed by actor Jussie Smollett for potentially damaging the show’s image,
want him sacked.
The actor returned on set after he was released on bail
following his arrest on Thursday morning, even as detectives “continue to
investigate” the many twists associated with the case.
TMZ reports that many of the ‘Empire’ actors are “f**king
furious” and feel if FOX honchos don’t fire Jussie, the embattled should exit
on his own as he doesn’t deserve to remain on the hit show.
Jussie’s colleagues are reportedly angry because they
initially had his back after the “attack,” but in light of the new evidence by
the Chicago police department, a lot of
them feel hurt and embarrassed.
However, sources claim that there are still some cast and
crew members who believe Jussie’s telling the truth because they can’t imagine
why he would want to pull off a hoax like this.
The situation is said to have caused arguments as they
discussed how to best handle the issue.
Smollett is in trouble for allegedly raising a false alarm
and filing a report that he was a victim of racial and homophobic hate after he
was ‘attacked’ on January 29 by two men who he said also doused him with a
liquid substance believed to be bleach.
