Months ago it was announced that the producers of Prison Break were planning to launch a spin-off set at a women's prison, but the talks were quickly curtailed when the writers' strike shut down Hollywood. Now that production on the FOX series is back to normal, Prison Break executive producer Matt Olmstead and co-executive producer Zack Estrin have revealed that they still have plans for a spin-off. The original idea was to introduce a female character on the regular series and then send her off into her own show, but that idea has been abandoned. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the new series, which will likely be known as Prison Break: Cherry Hill, will instead have an all new cast of characters dealing with life in a women's penitentiary.
