You guys should know I love the Prison Break Series based off my maps I did of them (foxriver/Sona) So I'm glad to see its coming back. For those that have never seen it, I recommend watching the series on Netflix.

Prison Break fans, you can finally breathe a sigh of relief. After a half of year of rumors, back and forth and total confusion, we finally have some good news to share!

Fox announced today at the 2015 Summer TCA press tour that the fan-favorite Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell prison drama is returning as an event series.

"We have another event series in development that we're excited to tell you about," Fox boss Gary Newman says. "Finally we can confirm that we're in development on Prison Break."

"[Series creator] Paul Scheuring came in and pitched a great story to bring the show back," Newman says. "It's going to bring back both brothers, Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell, and Paul is busy writing the first episode. And once we have those written materials, I feel confident we're going to be going straight to series on that one."

So where will this event series fit into the Prison Break timeline?

"Paul's in the middle of writing it right now, I would describe it as a bit of a sequel," Fox boss Dana Walden says. "It picks up the characters several years after we left them in the last season of the show. The brothers will be back. Some of the iconic characters from that show will be back. Not sure Paul knows exactly where he's going over the 10 episode arc, but will definitely address some questions that were set up at the end of the series."

To clarify: the event series will take place after season four, but before the straight-to-DVD movie conclusion. AKA, Michael (Miller) is still alive!

"Yes, he is going to be ignoring the straight-to-DVD video," Newman says. "It is past season four, several years past where the series ended. I wouldn't want to give away too much of what Paul has planned but he had a very detailed, incredible story for why these characters become relevant again and why to bring them back. It's going to be very exciting."

But Walden explained that fans shouldn't completely forget everything that happened in the movie finale.

"I don't think he's going to completely ignore what happened in that episode but what he pitched to us was a very logical and believable in the world of Prison Break, an explanation for why our characters are alive and still moving around the world," Walden says.

Not going to spoil it for those that have not seen this series, and subsequently the 90 minute movie through, but, how exactly to they plan to do this?
 
Seeing those two in The Flash TV show completely ruined them for me. I loved them before that too but damn, so cheesy. Maybe this new season of Prison Break will make me like them again.

They said the 90 minute movie has no bearing on this. They're ignoring it happened for 90% of it.

Well that's good that they are ignoring it, as it was overly silly and so far left-fielded from the original path that the series was taking. I honestly only watched it because I was so bored while tending to my friends garage sale. I guess, thinking back on the series finale, there's really only one way that they can relaunch the show.
