Former ‘Empire’ star Jussie Smollett is the subject of a new Netflix documentary about his 2019 alleged hate crime hoax and the years-long legal battle that followed. Here’s where Smollett is now.

Jussie Smollett made headlines after he claimed to Chicago police that he was the victim of a homophobic and racist attack — but where is he after continuing to deny accusations of a hoax? Smollett got his start as a child star with a role in The Mighty Ducks.

More than six years after Jussie Smollett was accused of falsely reporting a hate crime attack in Chicago, the former “Empire” actor and his case are back in the spotlight. Netflix documentary “The Truth About Jussie Smollett” is set to hit the streamer on Friday, Aug. 22 and feature interviews from those involved in the case and Smollett himself.
