Emily Browning, Lukas Gage, and Drake Rodger signal on to star within the pilot for Hulu’s upcoming Jail Break reboot.
Hulu’s upcoming Jail Break reboot has landed its first collection regulars. Emily Browning (American Gods), Lukas Gage (Highway Home), and Drake Rodger (Landman) will all have main roles within the Jail Break reboot pilot.
Browning will star as Cassidy Collins, “an ex-soldier turned corrections officer takes a job at one of many deadliest prisons in America.” Gage will play Jackson “a politician from a well-to-do background in his first congressional marketing campaign.” Rodger will play Tommy, “an inmate at one of many deadliest prisons in America, incarcerated ten years in the past.” Though this venture will inform a brand new story with new characters, it will be set in the identical universe as the unique Jail Break collection.
The Jail Break reboot is written by Mayans M.C. co-creator Elgin James. He may also govt produce by his Sierra Drive banner alongside authentic collection govt producers Daybreak Olmstead, Neal Moritz, and Marty Adelstein. Jail Break creator Paul Scheuring can be onboard as an govt producer.
In case you’re hoping to see any authentic Jail Break characters present up within the reboot, it was beforehand reported that the collection “shouldn’t be anticipated to contain the characters on the middle of the unique collection.” Wentworth Miller (who performed Michael Scofield) has mentioned he’s accomplished with the collection as he not desires to play heterosexual characters. Ought to the reboot transfer past the pilot stage, you’ve received to assume they’ll get no less than one of many authentic forged members to make an look. I’d assume T-Bag remains to be in jail.
Jail Break debuted in 2005 and adopted Michael Scofield (Miller) as he tried to get his brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) off demise row and escape from Fox River State Penitentiary. With its twists and turns, the collection was one of many greatest hits of the yr. The collection got here to an in depth after 4 seasons and was adopted by a TV film, The Remaining Break. Nevertheless, a lot of the primary forged returned for a nine-episode Jail Break revival in 2017. Though one other season was within the early phases of improvement, it finally didn’t transfer ahead.
