Prison Break Reboot Coming to Hulu

[silverscreenselect]

One of my all-time favorite series, Prison Break, is getting a reboot on Hulu. The original ran for five seasons with a TV movie at the end. The premise was two brothers, one (Dominic Purcell) framed for a murder he didn't commit, and the other (Wentworth Miller) who committed a crime just so he could wind up in the same prison and break his brother out (and later prove his brother's innocence). Over the course of the show, the characters kept getting thrown in various prisons and then escaping.

The new series has an entirely new cast of mostly unknowns and a variation on the original's premise. The main character is a woman who becomes a prison guard to help break her boyfriend out of jail.
