Purcell's big screen debut arrived in the year 2000 when he played Ulrich in Mission: Impossible 2, soon after landing the lead role in the Fox TV science fiction drama John Doe.

His mother was Irish and his father was a Norwegian of French descent. Purcell was born in Wallasey, Merseyside, England. His character was wrongfully accused of and charged with the murder of Terence Steadman, the brother of the Vice President of the United States, and was the catalyst for the prison break of season one. Join us as we explore what the cast of Prison Break got up to next and where they all are now.ĭominic Purcell was cast as Lincoln Burrows just three days before the start of production of Prison Break. Scofield devises an elaborate plan to help his brother escape, and along with the help of six other inmates and the prison's doctor, they make a bid for freedom and begin a quest to clear Burrows name.īut, whatever happened to the Fox River Eight? Or more specifically the actors who played the characters of Lincoln Burrows, Michael Schofield, Fernando Sucre, Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell, Benjamin Miles "C-Note" Franklin, David "Tweener" Apolskis, John Abruzzi, and Charles "Haywire" Patoshik? And of course Sara Tancredi, the Fox River Doctor. Running for 90 episodes across 5 seasons and a TV movie, the subsequent seasons never quite lived up to that first year when a tattooed Michael Scofield had himself incarcerated in Fox River Penitentiary, the same prison where his brother, Lincoln Burrows, is on death row for a crime he did not commit. Premiering on August 29th 2005, the first season of Prison Break performed exceptionally well in the ratings and was almost universally critically acclaimed.
