The new Prison Break is happening due to James' deal with 20th Television, which is part of Disney Television Studios, which produced the original series. James will executive produce alongside Prison Break creator/executive producer Paul Scheuring and executive producers Dawn Olmstead, Marty Adelstein, and Neal Moritz.

2005 is when the original series debuted. It followed Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), a guy determined to prove the innocence of his convicted brother, Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell). There then proceeded an effort to save him from death row by breaking him out of prison.

It aired on Fox for four seasons and was followed by a made-for-TV film called The Final Break, which aired after the Season 4 finale in 2009.  Additionally, there was a limited series in 2015 that starred Miller and Purcell on Fox.

A new Prison Break series will be a welcome comeback to the popular series, which will certainly be a breakout success.
