Hollywood Reporter reports that Fox has ordered a script for a spinoff, tentatively titled Prison Break: Cherry Hill, based on Molly, a character who will be introduced on Prison Break later this season. The show is being written by Prison Break executive producer Matt Olmstead and co-executive producer Zack Estrin.
Like Michael Scofield, Molly is also suffering from a family tragedy at the hands of the Company. Molly ends up in a women’s prison because of the revenge she sought, after which she learns her loved ones are still alive.
“There is an ironic similarity between Molly and Michael — they’re both emotionally banged-up, both have lost loved ones, and both want the people responsible to pay,” Olmstead said.
In the event Cherry Hill does not get picked up, Molly will continue as a regular character on Prison Break.
Prison Break is superb in writing and acting! Each episode has been very entertaining because it’s unpredictable. Each character has great depth so that they are not unbelievably bad or good. We are sure emotionally atached to the wonderful chracters you created. We would really miss Prison Break!
