Prison Break is coming back... again, according to The Hollywood Reporter – but it's bad news for Wentworth Miller fans. While Hulu is resurrecting the former FOX show following its controversial reboot in 2017, none of the beloved crime drama's cast will be returning.
Instead, the new outing will simply be "set in the same world" as fictional brothers Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) and Michael Schofield (Miller), which – considering the flagship series was set in the real world – has us intrigued as to how it'll differentiate itself from other titles within the genre and connect to what's come before it.
Also starring Robin Tunney, Amaury Nolasco, Peter Stomare, and The Walking Dead's Sarah Wayne Callies, Prison Break centers on Michael, a structural engineer who concocts an elaborate plan to get himself put inside the same prison as his falsely convicted brother, which he coincidentally helped design, and break him out. It ran between 2005 and 2008, before a feature-length TV film titled 'The Final Break' was released in 2009. Miller and co reprised their roles yet again for a fifth season eight years later.
