Following Jussie Smollett‘s arrest for allegedly staging a racist and homophobic attack against himself, TNT has pulled an upcoming Drop the Mic episode that featured the Empire actor.
Smollett currently faces a felony criminal charge of disorderly conduct/filing a false police report in connection with his alleged attack in January.
In a press conference Thursday, Chicago police alleged that Smollett hired two men to fake the attack because he was dissatisfied with his Empire salary.
In the wake of Smollett’s arrest on Thursday, his future on Empire remains unclear.
