“I think even more than last season with the casket I think this flash-forward is going to live and evolve and change and shock as we move forward,” says showrunner Brett Mahoney. “I think compared to last season, that was a slow burn, I think this is going to be more of a rocket burn. And I can also tell you you’re going to have the answers to what you thought in the premiere you’ll have the answers to that in Episode 611. And I promise you that it will blow your mind.”

James Corden asked about Smollett during Howard's visit last night to The Late Late Show. “I was so proud of that young man that played my son,” said Howard, “because he still loved me at the end of it, and all he wanted to do was get closer to me. And then out of nowhere, he’s snatched away from us…He was the heart of our show, and now it’s like our show is on a blood, a heart and lung bypass machine.”
