More Details from Prison Break at Comic-Con this past weekend

The crowd's reaction when Went didn't appear!

First, the FOX/Prison Break representative went out and put down the place cards for the panel. There were the names you wanted to see: Dominic Purcell, Sarah Wayne Callies and, most important of all, Wentworth Miller. It was coming true, Wentworth fans felt, they were finally going to see him in person. Then, they showed the first ten or so minutes of the fourth season premiere. The crowd was lathered up and rarin' to go. Finally, the moment of truth; the cast and creative team arrived on stage. There was executive producer Matt Olmstead, there was Sarah Wayne and Dominic and... that was it. Wentworth Miller was nowhere to be seen, and the crowd lost its breath, a great many fans standing up and leaving the room the second that Olmstead said that Wentworth got stuck in LA shooting some pick-ups. Hmm, does that seem dubious or what?

News from Comic-Con (Preview news & No-Wentworth)

Here's a scoop from Nikki (Prison Break Buff) who is live at Comic-Con as we speak!

From film at Comic Con

Michael starts off narrating a letter, saying what has happened with the Company, being bribed to get Whistler out of Sona, and that they killed his only love. Now he is going to take down the Company.

Cut to Mahone who is driving Susan B. and Whistler in a towncar. Susan B. tells Whistler that if he pulls it off, he can come back up to her room later, and “no” won’t be in her vocabulary. Michael is spying from a window with binoculars. Mahone let’s Whistler and Susan B. out of the car. Michael puts down the binoculars…

Whistler and Susan B. walk into a party. “In and Out,” she says. They separate.

Michael carries something a box in through the back.

Whistler enters a room.

Michael changes out of his grubby clothes and into his suit. He pulls a gun out of the box and puts in his pocket.

“Good to see you again,” Jason says to Whistler. “Who are you buying it for?” he asks. “Jason, you know I can’t get into that,” Whistler says. “Do you want to sell the card to me or not,” he asks. He hands off some money.

Michael strolls through the party and grabs a champagne glass.

Jason hands Whistler the card. “The Company will do anything to get it back,” he says. Whistler turns and shoots several of the guys before walking out. Michael sees him and follows him through the party.

Whistler exits the room and goes into another one. He pushes a button in the ceiling panel and pulls out some sort of box and starts downloading from the card. Michael walks in, “Where is she?” he asks Whistler. Whistler tells him that he doesn’t understand. They go back and forth before Susan B. walks in.

“We need to leave,” she says. Michael pulls the gun on her. “Gretchen look at me. This is for Sara,” he says. “I didn’t kill Sara,” Susan B. says. She tells him that she escaped. Michael says that Lincoln saw the head. Susan B. tells him that Lincoln saw a cadaver. He bought into it.

Michael asks where she is. Susan B. says that she’ll tell him once they get outside.“Where is she?” Michael yells with his gun at Susan B. Whistler points his gun at Michael and tells him to give him the gun. Michael hands the gun over. “Let’s go,” Susan B. says. They rush out the door.

Whistler drops the card off for someone, wrapped in a newspaper.

“Sara,” Michael says.

NO WENTWORTH!!!!!!!!!!

Prison Break Comic Con Panel: NO WENTWORTH!!"

Everyone’s upset, and Dominic seems a little hurt by it!!

After the sneak peek clip everyone came on stage.

Sarah thanks the audience for their fan mail and says she’s gotten a ton of origami swans.

Meanwhile Dominic takes pictures of the audience (see pics of Sarah & Dom posted on 727/08)!!

Sarah says that Sara is coming back a very different person. She says that she sees it in friends of hers that are coming back from the war, and it’s an interesting time to relate to this…

Matt Olmstead adds to this, saying that they couldn’t give Sarah a role during Season 3 because she’d just be tied to a chair. “There are no physical barriers, but there are barriers,” he says in regards to their characters. We are told that this season Michael will be affected by stress in a way nobody can predict.

Sarah talks about her “I think in the beginning of the series Sara was an advocate on behalf of men on death role. She was profoundly influenced by Gandi. And I think now there’s a very small part of her that thinks that it’s all out the window. That it’s easier to be motivated by rage and hatred and revenge. And if it were not for Michael she would not bother looking beyond that.” She says Sara needs to look inside herself. And where are the characters going? To the ultimate extreme and they all know they can die. She says a small part of Sara wants to give into that, and throw herself into the bullets - rather than look at herself in the mirror at the end of the day and wonder who she is.

Sucre will be back, along with Mahone and Bellick - which we already knew!!

A fan asks what they do behind the scenes, do they have fun, and will we ever see bloopers?!? “We’ve been doing this for four years,” Dominic says. “And it comes to the place where you’ve got to crack jokes!” He says he’s serious about what he does, but he also realizes the absurdity about it. “We’ve all got a really good vibe,” he says. Dominic also gives a nod to the writers. “The writers on this show allow the actors to be spontaneous and give us permission to play with their words. That is unique and gives us a good deal of comfort.” Sarah agrees. “I think there’s also points when you’ve been working for 16 hours and sprinting and running, and you hit a certain point where it’s all funny.

And then you just need to go home!”
