I get these email updates about Wentworth every so often & the update today was about him possibly being in the Bioshock movie. In reading, I found that the info is mainly coming from something "Wentworth" tweeted! Even BuddyTV has fallen for it!
"Prison Break may be ending, but I've got things in the works. Hint...one word: Bioshock.

Now I'm not a "tweeter"... don't fancy the site, never even been to the site until today when I was interested in finding out more. It seems that Wentworth has a Twitter page where he mainly talks about music & misspells words! Anyway, the really strange thing about this whole Bioshock entry is the whole conversation - check it below (I omitted the names of the ppl involved for privacy reasons but you can go to the page & see it all):

@Z Maybe (?) In development for next year I think. I let the agents and lawyers deal with the details...lol 8:10 PM May 26th
@wentworthmiller Wow that was a great game, is that a movie or a TV series? 8:02 PM May 26th
@J A movie I think. 8:10 PM May 26th
@wentworthmiller Wow that would be awesome, keep my fingers crossed, definatly one to watch! 8:12 PM May 26th"
Wentworth has already said that he doesn't do these type websites. And forgive me for using my brain, but I don't think Wentworth would have to guess as to whether or not Bioshock, his "something in the works", is a movie or TV series, especially when it's plastered all over IMDB which is the site listed as his website on his Twitter page LOL! I think these people actually believe they are talking to Wentworth LOL! You really have to check this out http://twitter.com/wentworthmiller.

Wentworth as Jack...
No, not the Jack you're thinking of! It's rumored that he'll star in the 2010 sci-fi horror movie based on the video game "BioShock". Anyone with an Xbox 360 knows that BioShock is an awesome game (yeah I play a little) & it's being made into a motion picture!
Wentworth's character (if this rumor is in fact true), Jack, is on a plane that crashes in some underwater creepfest of a place. Click below to read the synopsis I got from IMDB (thanks to my girl Simply Elated AKA Sweet-N-Stuff)!
The film is said to be in pre-production. We'll hang loosely to these details as pre-production info can change dramatically, not to mention we can't swear by what we read on IMDB! Hopefully all this is real & we'll get to see Went on the big screen next year!

Directed by Gore Verbinski
Writing credits:

Cast:
Wentworth Miller - Jack (rumored)
Produced by
Gore Verbinski (producer)
Strauss Zelnick (executive producer)
Video game synopsis:
The story takes place in 1960 and follows Jack, who, at the beginning of the game, is on board a plane flying over the Atlantic Ocean. The plane unexpectedly crashes into the middle of the Atlantic, and Jack is the lone survivor. He makes his way through the wreckage and eventually swims to a nearby lighthouse, which he soon finds is the secret entrance to the underwater city of Rapture. Rapture was created in 1946 by Andrew Ryan, who believed the city to be the solution to the increasingly oppressive political and religious authority in the world.
When the city was first built, it was just what Andrew Ryan had imagined, a paradise of freedom of wealth. The city was populated by those whom Ryan believed to be the best in humanity. All was going according to plan. However, the city's downfall resulted from the same reason it was created; Ryan's hatred for authority. In Rapture, contact with the surface was prohibited, which made smuggling extremely profitable. Therefore, the black market became dominated by an ex-mobster named Frank Fontaine, who, unlike Ryan, had an extreme thirst for power. Fontaine wanted complete control of the city, but he needed more than just wealth to achieve it. Fontaine worked closely with Dr. Bridgett Tenenbaum, a German scientist who first discovered ADAM in Rapture. ADAM consists of stem cells extracted from a species of sea slugs. ADAM greatly accelerated genetic engineering research, creating a plasmid industry that sold everything from a cure for male pattern baldness to skills such as electrovolt (which gives the user the ability to emit electric bolts from their fingertips) and telekinesis (which gives the user the ability to move objects with their mind). At first, the scientists of Rapture paid no attention to Tennenbaums new invention, but Fontaine was able to help her get it off the ground. Also with Fontaines help, Tenenbaum was able to create the Little Sisters, who were young girls each with a sea slug embedded in their body to improve ADAM yields. At the same time, the Big Daddies, genetically enhanced humans in large diving suits, were created to protect the Little Sisters as they worked.
In 1958, Andrew Ryan apparently lost patience and had Fontaine killed. Unfortunately for him, another man, Atlas, took Fontaines place as the leader of the opposition. On New Years Eve of the same year, Atlas and his ADAM-augmented followers formed a riot that involved the upper and lower classes of Rapture. This resulted in a civil war between Ryan and Atlas that eventually spread to include the entire city, crippling Rapture.
By the time Jack enters the city in 1960, all ordered society in Rapture has collapsed. On the bathysphere (elevator) ride down to Rapture from the lighthouse, Jack finds a radio from which Atlas meets and begins communicating with him. Atlas tells Jack that he will do all he can to help keep him alive, and to just trust and listen to him. Atlas tells Jack some of the story of Rapture, how Andrew Ryan is corrupt, and he tells him about the rebellion and war. He claims that Ryan has captured his family, and he begs for Jack to go and save them. Atlas teaches Jack everything about ADAM, and he claims that the only way to survive is to gain ADAM and use all of abilities granted by plasmids. He tells Jack to kill all of the Little Sisters and extract all of their ADAM, because it would be the best source for it. However, Dr. Tenenbaum overhears Atlas via radio and urges Jack to save all of the Little Sisters, and claims that it will be worth his while.
As Jack works his way through the terrifying city of Rapture, he learns about Raptures fate and history through audio logs, genetically-induced playbacks of past events, and radio messages. He must fight off all opposing splicers, citizens with severe mental and physical problems due to excessive ADAM use and addiction, who attack him constantly and unconsciously on orders from Ryan, and in search for more ADAM. As Jack encounters the Little Sisters, he must not only decide whether to save or kill them, but he must eliminate all of the overly-aggressive Big Daddies as well. With each step he takes, Jack will discover more and more horrifying truths, encounter nearly-impossible obstacles, and learn that not everything is what it seems in this terrifying dystopia called Rapture.
