Has Miller Been BioShocked?
Oh, how we love Twitter…It’s like the badlands of rumors and innuendo and now, apparently, unconfirmed-yet-tantalizing movie scoops.
Case in point: Wentworth Miller’s Twitter page. The Prison Break star recently posted a message on the site hinting at big things in the near future. Specifically, BioShock.
“Prison Break may be ending,” says the post, “but I’ve got things in the works. Hint… one word: Bioshock.”
It’s unclear whether Miller is suggesting that he might somehow be involved with Gore Verbinski’s big-screen adaptation of the blockbuster game or if he’s simply lending some voice talent to the upcoming sequel.
Hopefully, we’ll know more soon, but stay tuned into IGN Movies for more as it develops.

Prison Break: Assessing the “Final Break”
For a moment, let’s return to the events of the Prison Break finale. Michael was successful at bringing down the Company, but not without the casualties, in this case, his mother Christina. Kellerman returns and gets everyone out of their loopholes–well, all but T-Bag, who was imprisoned for everything he’s done. Four years later, Mahone’s got a new wife, and Sara’s given birth to her son. And Michael, as we all know, died. We should also remember that there is a feature-length episode, “The Final Break”, that will be released on DVD in July, and it will explain everything that happened in those four years, including Michael’s death. The catch is, that one’s been leaked online.
Well, not exactly. “The Final Break” was, surprisingly, aired in other countries. Originally composed of two episodes–”The Odd Ball and Chain” and “Free”–it was first aired in Israel, which was the version that leaked, and will be aired in the UK tonight. For obvious purposes I shall talk about what happened in those episodes, although I won’t leak as many details, because technically we already know what happened. But that won’t stop me from posting this warning: there are possible spoilers up ahead, so unless you’ve seen it or are planning to buy the DVD, skip this part now!
But first, let’s look back at casting details that we reported months before the final episodes of Prison Break aired. Remember when the show’s producers were looking for actors to play female inmates in a totally different prison, raising speculation that the show’s spin-off, which will be based on a women’s prison, is going to push through? Turns out, that casting call is for “The Final Break”. All the characters mentioned there did show up–the toughened “husband”, the anxious jail warden, the mentally-unstable inmate, the guard with a grudge, and all will make a new inmate’s life a little harder.
And no, it’s not Gretchen. It’s Sara.

Prison Break: The Final Break Recap
Last week, we saw the explosive two-hour series finale of Prison Break. This week, we were treated with another Prison Break two hour special. Called “Prison Break: The Final Break.” The story started off with Sara getting hauled off to prison after she was finally married to Michael. She was arrested for murdering Christina. That’s where the story starts to feel more like Prison Break’s former spin-off show, Cherry Hill.
At the female-penitentiary, we are greeted by new characters. A few of the characters resembled a female version of T-Bag, named “Daddy” and of course Bellick, back when he was the king of Fox River. We also learn that our old friend, Gretchen was sharing the same prison.
Across the yard was the men’s side of the prison. In that side, T-Bag and General Cranst were currently residing in. Almost immediately they received word of Sara’s capture, and because the General was such a bitter old man, he put out a hit on Sara’s life. Apparently Gretchen was the General’s inside ‘man’ inside the other prison.

Michael Was Always Slated to Die
The Man recently revealed that Michael was always slated to die.
“I’m not actually sure what direction the show would have taken if there had been no writers strike. I am pretty sure that Sara would not have come back though. I think Michael still would have died, since the ultimate ending of the show was decided a long time ago and they always planned to stick with their original ending idea.
Without the strike we may have seen the introduction of different characters and the way the show reached its ending may have been different.
Beyond that, I don’t know anything specific. ”

Latest from The Man
This is what The Man has replied to the question why Sara goes to prison.
Well that all depends, since at the beginning of season 4, Sara was there because she wanted to be, she was always free to go. since she wasn’t on the run, Kellerman wouldn’t have had paperwork for her. her shooting Christina is probably something no one would find out about………..unless there just happens to be a video of her doing it…..hmm.
