It's Official! 'Prison Break' Sequel Is Happening With Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell

A "Prison Break" sequel event series is officially in the works!

Rumors have been floating around that Fox wanted to bring the drama, which ran from 2005-2009, back. And today, at TCA, Fox chairman and CEO Gary Newman confirmed the news and announced that stars Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell are on board. The event series — modeled after Fox's successful "24: Live Another Day" — will run for 10 episodes.

"I would describe it as a bit of a sequel. It picks up the characters several years after we left them in the last season of the show," said co-chairman and CEO Dana Walden. "The brothers will be back. Some of the iconic characters from that show will be back. I don't think [executive producer producer] Paul [Scheuring] knows exactly where he's going over the 10-episode arc, but it definitely will address some questions that were set up at the end of the series for a new audience."

One question is how Miller's Michael is back — since he, you know, died in the wrap-up movie "Prison Break: The Final Break." Looks like that might end up getting ignored.

As Newman explained, "What [Scheuring] pitched to us was a very logical and believable — in the world of 'Prison Break' — explanation for why our characters are alive and still moving around the world."

That's going to be a really painful tattoo to get removed.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

Never got past season one or maybe it was two.

Caught a few episodes on TV and never really thought the concept worked after they broke out.

Don't think this one will be any good tbh

Season 1 goes up there as one of the greatest ever non cable shows.

Hopefully events will pick up shortly there after and ignore the whole secret organisation horse shit that crippled the series.

 

[Hawks1523]

I stopped watching when they were in that Mexican jail or wherever it was. They made a prison break movie!?

 

[WWSD]

I hope they bring back T-Bag in the sequel.

depends if you're a fan of the show. Anything with the entire crew will be good to watch

 

[Ry009]

It got silly like 24 but still better than the majority of shit that's still on these days.

In.

 

[Yolo Swaggins]

Schofield doesn't die arrested taken to jail. Lincoln finds out robs a bank and gets put in the same jail.

Season 1 of this show was super tense, loved it

Season 1 was pretty good. Lost interest after that.

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

But with the shows ending .. Err the final break or whatever how does it go on?

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Don't know if they did it on purpose but it is left open with Schofield not actually being seen dead and Sarah is still on the run, she did break out remember.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I hope they bring back T-Bag in the sequel.

Hope he gets a gig in the rebooting of Heroes as well.

Prison: We're Back from our Break

 

[juss]

It was great for 1 season, good for another couple, then got silly and boring.

 

[Jatz]

Loved the first season, enjoyed the second season. Got told not to bother with the 3rd. Guess I should catch up.

Was there a movie? I never heard that.

I think they slapped it on at the end to make more money. Wouldn't call it a movie it's pretty much just 2 episodes

Makes sense.

Might start from the beginning again, it was good enough to watch multiple times!

 

[WowWeee]

Season 1 was incredible, the best season of any show IMO. Sadly quality dropped off faster than North's 2nd qtrs

Pretty much

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Huh... I'am all confused, didn't he like .. You know.. And "the final break"
Or is this like a T3,4,5 thing.. Alternative universe .. Or it didn't happen.

I think we are just meant to ignore the movie. I guess they left it open slightly by never actually showing him getting electrocuted...

Does anyone know why the show has been revived?

Spoiler

Michael was acted out to be extremely smart. Why would you hold to wires to short it out, chuck one on the ground and other on top.

Massive money boost for the show being revived i'd say. It's going to be very popular.

 

[ShooterMcGavin8]

Schofield, Burrows, Sarah, C-Note and T-Bag all in the trailer. Have heard that Sucre, Sofia and Kellerman are also in the show. Nothing on Mahone, L.J and Gretchen
