Now that Empire's first season is officially over, fans can't help but wonder what's in store for the sophomore season. And we have the newest spoiler alert for you!

Singer Tyrese To Possibly Make Appearance In 'Empire' To Win Cookie Over, Comes For Derek Luke 'I Own The Cookie Jar'

So much happened that left viewers on the edge of their seats in the final moments of Empire's two-hour season finale last week.

From Jamal showing his dangerous side by nearly shoving the Lyon family's rival over a building, to Hakeem and Andre attempting to take over Empire Entertainment, and even Lucious landing in jail after he killed Cookie's cousin, the final episodes were jam-packed.

Executive Producer Ilene Chaiken told E! News Thursday that the writers and directors have not even begun to wrap their head around what could happen in season 2. But there are some definites that viewers can look forward to.

"I'm excited to continue to explore characters, and learn more about the past as we go into the future. I'm excited to see what Cookie does with her new status, especially in the absence of Lucious, however long he's absent."

Chaiken confessed that they have no idea how long they're going to leave Lucious behind bars. As far as her relationship with Jamal, that has surely taken on a new dynamic. It's almost as if he dropped Cookie when Lucious finally began to accept him. Fans will see that play out in the highly anticipated new episodes as well.

"I want to see what Jamal does with his new position and his gangster status. Has he really fully assumed the mantle of his father's heir? Is he the most deserving son? None of these stories are over. We took them to the edge of one precipice only to jump towards another."
