Terrence Howard, star of Mr Holland's Opus and Dead Presidents, and more recently lead character Lucious Lyon in Fox's hip-hop drama Empire, was an unexpected arrival at Dubai International Film festival on Thursday night.

The US star had not been advertised as attending by the festival, nor does he have a movie screening at this year's event, but was nonetheless spotted casually sauntering into the uber-exclusive VIP Lounge World Class UAE bar following the evening's premiere screening of Bilal.

We’ll have an update on why he’s here, and how long he’s staying, just as soon as we can get one.
