Prison Break may be returning to the small screen. Hulu has ordered a pilot for a sequel series from Elgin James, one of the creators of Mayans MC. The Prison Break sequel has been in development since November 2023.
Deadline shared the following about the Hulu project:
Details regarding the new installment’s plot are being kept under wraps, however, Deadline understands James’ version will be its own thing set within the same universe.
As we previously reported, it is not expected to involve the characters at the center of the original series and its follow-up on Fox, Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), and Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell).
Miller, Purcell, Sarah Wayne Callies, Mark Feuerstein, Amaury Nolasco, Robert Knepper, Rockmond Dunbar, Paul Adelstein, Augustus Prew, Rick Yune, and Inbar Lavi starred in the original FOX series, which aired for five seasons along with a one season revival in 2017.
Additional details for the Hulu sequel series will be announced later.
What do you think? Have you seen the original Prison Break series? Would you watch a sequel series on Hulu?
No.
Leave it in the archives.
Mistake above, the original was 5 seasons including the revival, not 5 seasons and a revival.
I’m up for a reboot in same universe with new characters because I like where it left the legacy characters and don’t really want that screwed up, but a cameo or two would be fine if it makes sense.
5 Seasons? , for me were 1 season and 4 on WTF are gonna do now. This show had to had mabey 1 o 2 seasons trying to leave the prison, because the other 4 were horrible.
The revival, sucked too.
Just one season or an eternal season trying to resolve how to escape the prison, from a full body tattoo ?
