Prison Break will return in a new version

The pilot for a reboot has just been officially ordered.

Back to the tattoo artist! prison Break will come back. But in a new form. A reboot of the concept has just been validated by the Hulu platform. The pilot for this new series has just been ordered by the streaming platform, a year after the start of the project.

It will indeed be “a new chapter” which should not include Wentworth Miller or Dominic Purcell in the cast. But the new characters could have connections to Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows, or to Sara, since the story will tell “a new story in the same universe as the original series.“Most certainly a new story of escape and a prison environment.

This spin-off will be written and produced by the showrunner Elgin Jameswho co-created Mayans MC., the spin-off series from Sons of Anarchy. The creator of prison BreakPaul Scheuring, will be associated as executive producer.

The series prison Break began in 2005. Ended after 4 seasons and a TV movie in 2009, it was entitled to an unconvincing comeback a decade later, with a season 5 in 9 episodes broadcast in 2017.
