'Prison Break' Season 5 Release Date, News: Wentworth Miller Might Topbill The Next Season?

As "Prison Break" season 5 premieres next year, fans are excited to know if Wentworth Miller will still be the main character in the series, especially after his explosive revelation in 2013.

It can be recalled that three years ago, the actor made a public announcement that he was gay, causing a ruckus among fans of "Prison Break." It has become a huge issue considering his role in the series, where he plays the tough prison guy named Michael Scofield. At the time of his revelation, fans had different opinions about his coming out of the closet. For his part, Miller said he did not really care as long as he was true to himself.

As of now, two members of the "Prison Break" season 5 cast are busy with "Legends of Tomorrow." Dominic Purcell and Wentworth Miller are occupied with their respective roles on the CW show so they are expected to juggle their shooting schedules.

The new installment of "Prison Break" will have its home in Fox. While the network has not been very generous in giving details about the upcoming show, it has confirmed that the show is currently in its post-production process and that its main cast will still be intact. For some, that means that Wentworth Miller will still be top billing the show.

Season 5 will only have ten episodes and is rumored to be the final season of the series. It has been eight years since season 4 came to a close, so the upcoming season is dubbed as one of the most highly anticipated series next year.
