Prison Break is returning to FOX in 2017, and the creator, Paul Scheuring, spoke about the return of the series with Entertainment Weekly.
Is there a potential for more seasons of Prison Break if this revival is successful? Not likely. Scheuring revealed that this return of Prison Break is close-ended. The story will be told in just the nine planned episodes. However, it is possible that the series will return.
He said the following:
“On some level, that break that we had of six-to-seven years in real life allowed Wentworth to appreciate what he had with Michael Scofield. He said he wanted to inhabit it for a few more episodes. I said, ‘Look, nobody wants to revive this thing for multiple seasons and that whole long slog, but if we can tell a concise, closed-ended story in nine or ten episodes, I’d be amenable to that.’”
