The actor, 37, was axed from the drama in season five after he claimed to have been attacked by two men who hurled racist and homophobic abuse at him and was then accused of fabricating the accusation and charged with making a false police report.
Empire showrunner Brett Mahoney told TVLine that discussions are underway to possibly have Jussie return as it would be 'weird' to end the show without him.
He said: 'It would be weird in my mind to end this family show and this family drama of which he was such a significant part of without seeing him.
'It’s fair to say it’s being discussed, but there’s no plan as of yet to bring him back. There’s been no decision made.'
Bosses considering a potential comeback for the actor is a change from when Empire creator Lee Daniels insisted last June that Jussie would never return to the programme.
