We’re now getting the latest scoop from the Fox TCA - and it seems that a Prison Break Spin-Off is definitely in the works!!
Matt Olmstead says that he and coexec producer Zack Estrin are right in the middle of rewriting the Prison Break spinoff. “We are finishing the script,” Olmstead told Kristin. “Then we’ll cast it, and then we’ll hopefully shoot it and get it on the air.”
The strike upset the original plan to introduce Molly and they couldn’t get their dream picks to move to Dallas, so Olmstead said the move to Los Angeles will help with the casting.
Estrin added, “The new show will be more like CSI Miami is to CSI and less a spinoff, because it will be a new character altogether.”
And the notion of someone breaking out of prison may be an element, but it is not going to be the focus of the show.
“It’s not an escape format, at least in the beginning,” Estrin says. “It’s like an undercover format. Someone who was being used inside for information to find things out and if anyone finds out what she’s doing, it’s a big, big problem. So it’s more of like a Departed format. We don’t want to do the same thing with breasts. There would be a different vibe and a different drive to the show. More like, ‘You don’t know who to trust.’”
Thoughts?
GENIALLLLLL!!!!!!!!
EXIJO SUBFORO YA!!!!
