When it comes how Terence Howard feels about his former Empire co-star JussieSmollett, the answer is simple: he misses his son
"Thank God," Howard exhaled when asked by Corden about the final season six run. "Only because my character has never had a good day. My son will commit suicide, I will go and kill my best friend and then I'll sit up and have eggs and be complaining about the yolk being runny in the morning, as if I don't care. And then the next I have to go and love my wife but then go and try and sabotage her at the end of the day. I'm a complete sociopath and psychopath.
"I was so proud of that young man that played my son because he still loved me at the end of it and all he wanted to do was get closer to me and then out of nowhere he's snatched away from us," Howard said of the show's producer's decision to cut Smollett from the end of season five and write his character out of the final stretch. "He was the heart of our show and now it's like our show is on a heart and lung bypass machine.
Howard said the cast is still trying to figure out how it felt on the set in the wake of the off-screen tumult. "I don't know what it was like, I'm still trying to figure it out. We are all still trying to put the pieces together because my son is gone. My son. That was my little boy and he's gone now and they don't mention him as if it's okay."
Corden also asked about Howard's claim on Sunday's Emmys red carpet that he was going to retire once theabout some discoveries he claimed to have made recently about Pythagoras and opening the "flower of my life properly and find the real wave conjugations that we've been looking for for 10,000 years."
"I'm dead serious. I'm so done with pretending to be people and I just want to be real for a minute," Howard said, noting that he might take actor Colin Farrell's advice to "not bathe for a month" to find out who he really is.
