When is the much-awaited Prison break season 6 due?
The outbreak of the pandemic has brought everything to a grinding halt and so, the production team was compelled to stop all shootings and meetings.

Well, no need to worry because Dominic Purcell assured the fans that the new season is in works, and Paul T. Scheuring has added that the plot of the upcoming season of ‘Prison Break’ will go back to the old times and will be presented in a “new way”.
This suggests that the season will focus on the happy couple who are destined to be reunited.

This gives us a lot to eagerly look-out for and also the hope that an official announcement about the release date must be on its way.
