Terrence Howard as Lucious Lyon
Lucious Lyon is the protagonist of the series-- he's the ruthless co-founder and CEO of Empire Entertainment, and will do whatever he can to preserve his image. Lyon is narcissistic, going as far as referring to himself a god, and plays the father of Andre, Jamal, and Hakeem Lyon. (Getty)
