Prison Break Star Reveals There Could Be More Seasons In The Future

Most of the time, TV comebacks don't exactly work out. However, Prison Break has found a way to break the mold, and fans have been loving the new revival season.

All of the main characters are back, the plot is as mysterious as ever, and the stakes are even higher. Long story short, FOX has hit a home-run with the show's fifth season.

With all of that success in mind, people are wondering, "Will there be more Prison Break after these nine episodes?"

The network made it pretty clear that the show would only be back for this limited run, but that may be changing. According to Wentworth Miller - who plays Michael Scofield - there could be more Prison Break on the way.

During an interview with EW, the star was asked about the possibility of the series getting a sixth season, and he didn't deny they've talked about it.

"I wouldn't rule it out. I feel like there's more story there and now we're talking about multiple generations. There are a lot of different directions that we could go, but I'm not in favor of exploring any of that unless there's something awesome that we can sink our teeth into."

That's not exactly definitive, but it's still an awesome update. Remember, tossing around stories is exactly how season five came about. If they land on a plot they want to explore, they will move forward with more episodes.

Let's hope a great idea comes their way soon!

More Prison Break:

The original action drama centered on MICHAEL SCOFIELD (Miller, "DC's Legends of Tomorrow"), a young man determined to save his convicted brother, LINCOLN BURROWS (Purcell, "DC's Legends of Tomorrow"), from death row by hatching an elaborate plan to escape from prison.

In the new series, filmed on location in Morocco, clues surface that suggest a previously thought-to-be-dead Michael may be alive. Lincoln and SARA (Sarah Wayne Callies, "Colony," "The Walking Dead"), Michael's wife until he was presumed dead, reunite to engineer the biggest escape ever, as three of Fox River State Penitentiary's most notorious escapees, SUCRE (Nolasco, "Telenovela"), T-BAG (Knepper, "Heroes") and C-NOTE (Dunbar, "The Mentalist"), are pulled back into the action.
