Series Description: This drama follows Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) as he works to free his older brother Lincoln (Dominic Purcell) from a maximum security prison where he awaits the wrongful execution for the murder of the Vice-President’s brother. Michael takes drastic measures to get himself incarcerated alongside his brother and, once inside, begins to execute an elaborate escape plan. In prison he meets cellmate Fernando Sucre (Amaury Nolasco), psycho Theodore “T-Bag” Bagwell (Robert Knepper), mob boss John Abruzzi (Peter Stormare), David “Tweener” Apolskis (Lane Garrison), Charles “Haywire” Patoshik (Silas Weir Mitchell), warden Henry Pope (Stacy Keach), correction officer captain Brad Bellick (Wade Williams) and prison doctor Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Calliesz). Among those fighting for the brothers on the outside are lawyer/friend Veronica Donovan (Robin Tunney) are Lincoln’s teenage son L. J. Burrows (Marshall Allman).

•	The Vice-President’s brother Terrence Steadman (whom Lincoln supposedly murdered) has been played by two actors. John Billingsley originated the role in season one but it was played by Jeff Perry in the season two. The recasting was done as a result of Billingsley being signed as a regular on the ABC series The Nine.
•	Dominic Purcell was cast three days before the start of production. Purcell auditioned for the role of Lincoln Burrows while recurring as Tommy Ravetto on North Shore. Series creator Paul Scheuring initially felt Purcell was “too much of a pretty boy” but won the role. When Purcell arrived on the set with a shaved head, Scheuring was amazed at the physical likeness of the two actors playing brothers.
