Now Fox has released a first look at the new year of the hit show. There aren’t actual lions in this promo, but all the Lyons are present. Season 2 pushes the theme “New Music, New Money, New Power, New Empire,” with shots of the hip-hop monarchy posed next to each phrase. A quick rundown: **New Music:** Hakeem and Jamal are in the studio and playing at a #FreeLucious concert, respectively. **New Money:** Cookie and ‘Mal look concerned with the new influx of dough. **New Power:** Andre looks confident strolling through the halls of (probably) Empire Entertainment, and Anika is shockingly back. **New Empire:** Lucious is still donned in his orange jumpsuit behind bars. Oh, and for a half second we see Hakeem ride his Hovertrax as Cookie, Andre, and Anika merely walk. _Empire_ season 2 premieres on Fox on Sept. 23. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/07/22/empire-season-2-first-trailer) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3968691/empire-season-2-trailer/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3968691/empire-season-2-trailer/"},"headline":"Watch Cookie and Lucious Reunite in Jail in New Empire Season 2 Trailer","datePublished":"2015-07-22T20:44:52.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T09:29:53.619Z","description":"'New Music, New Money, New Power, New Empire'","url":"https://time.com/3968691/empire-season-2-trailer/","keywords":["Television","Fox","empire"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Will Robinson / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3968691/empire-season-2-trailer/","name":"Watch Cookie and Lucious Reunite in Jail in New Empire Season 2 Trailer"}}]}] ```
