Fans had mixed reactions to the announcement that the series Prison Break would get a reboot. Now, it seems that a decision has been made regarding the cast.
Last year, Entertainment Weekly revealed that Hulu would be responsible for the reboot that was already in production. Now, a report from Variety has revealed that they have received an update regarding the casting decision.
According to the report, the new storyline “will exist in the same universe as the original Prison Break, but will focus on a new group of inmates.” The production will be directed by Elgin James and produced by Dawn Olmstead, Paul Scheuring, the original creator, as well as Marty Adelstein and Neal Moritz.
On social media, users were divided in their reactions. “Why do we need to reboot [sic] everything? I swear to God, reboots are always 100 times worse,” said one. “I couldn’t force myself to watch the last season,” admitted another.
“How about an original thought for a new show? Let this show be remembered as one of the best of all time,” reflected a third. “The first season was good, the rest was a waste of time and money. I hope the reboot does better,” said another.
