The Empire Effect: A Taraji P. Henson and Terrence D. Howard Story

"First of all, we're both very competitive. "We're also very creative in our choices for work. Terrence can be intimidating; he reminds me a bit of my father. I'm very attractive and he's very attractive, so there's a natural chemistry. The reason why it's so electric between us is because we've never crossed the line."
-Taraji P. Henson

Television's hottest show within a decade. Critical acclaim, mass appeal, a cultural phenomenon of epic proportion. 10 years of yearning and passion, unfulfilled by one woman's oath to remain strictly professional. An indescribable primal connection at odds with a thirst for greatness and unclouded recognition.

Two performers that don't even need dialogue because their combustible chemistry is so potent they only need their eyes and facial expressions to convey deep hostility or unquenchable desire between them.

What happens when that dual-energy coexists side by side on a daily basis and gets swept up in a global whirlwind that forces them to confront the unquenched longing within? Welcome to the Empire Effect.
