The highly anticipated "Prison Break" series returns tonight to kick off its 3rd season, and yummy Wentworth Miller went on the The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Monday to promote it.
Ellen said it all when introducing Wentworth: “IHe’s a criminal, all right. He’s criminally good-looking. He’s steal your heart. He’s steal your breath away. He’ll take your clothes off. He’s handsome, that’s all I’m saying.”
Wentworth brought gifts for Ellen and went on to admit that he had recently quit smoking cigs after ten years and now uses a Blackberry to constantly keep his hands busy.
Ellen also asked him about co-star Lane Garrison's tragic accident, in which a teenager was killed. (Lane has been sent to prison for real.) Wentworth said it was "a horrific mistake" made by "a very sweet kid." He doesn't fully defend Garrison though, saying, "There are no excuses. Nothing is going to bring that boy back ... I was really proud of him that he stepped forward and took full responsibility."
As for 'Prison Break', it returns tonight to kick off season three in a hell hole of a jail. Last season, Michael (Wentworth) and the escapes eluded captured during a cross country chase - until they made it to Panama. Now they've been re-captured and are in a prison where even prison guards won't go.
"Well, Michael has always been the man with the plan," Wentworth told an interviewer. "Of course, he's always been the smarted guy in the room because of his preparation, because of his research. Now it's about improvisation. Now it's about thinking on his feet and reacting to whatever is thrown at him in the moment."
"It just raises the stakes for him and makes for a more, I think, tense story."
But the confinements of the Panama jail won't mean 'Prison Break' will be lacking action: "Well, there are no correctional officers, there's no real authority so one could get shanked at any time," Wentworth said. "Makes Fox River look like Club Med."
Comments
I just saw the first episode of season 3 and i have to say: they did it again. I expected to have a slow going for about 4 episodes to get into the whole prison break feel again but they kick off big right from the start. Compliments to the writers and offcourse the cast. Oh and congrats to miss Callies on motherhood. May it bring you great experiences.
