Wentworth Miller Says He’s Done With Prison Break: ‘I Just Don’t Want to Play Straight Characters’

In case you were holding out hope that one day Fox’s drama Prison Break might finally deliver you a sixth season, well, it hypothetically it could, but it will apparently be without one of its leading men, Wentworth Miller.

On Sunday, the Madam Secretary and The Flash actor declared himself a wrap on all future iterations of Prison Break, having come to a decision. “I’m out. Of PB. Officially,” he wrote on Instagram. “Not bec of static on social media (although that has centered the issue.) I just don’t want to play straight characters. Their stories have been told (and told).”

Miller, who came out as gay in 2013, starred in the series as Michael Schofield, who attempts to spring his brother Lincoln Burrows, played by Dominic Purcell, from death row by getting himself incarcerated in the same prison. After airing its first four seasons between 2005 and 2009, the series returned for a nine-episode fifth season in 2017, and as recently as January, Fox has occasionally dangled a potential sixth season or limited series as a possibility. According to TVLine, however, a Fox source says the network isn’t “currently in active development” on a Prison Break project.

“So. No more Michael. If you were a fan of the show, hoping for additional seasons… I understand this is disappointing. I’m sorry,” Miller wrote on Instagram. “If you’re hot and bothered b/c you fell in love with a fictional straight man played by a real gay one… That’s your work.”

People were gay before the advent of the media and porn!

Why haven't gays turned straight after all the heteronormativity that has been forced on them through media, lifestyle, religion and homphobia??

Remind me when you took that conscious decision to be hetrosexual?
Your assertions though understood are very wrong and can't stand the test of time!
Let start with you first argument, you said people were gay before d advent of media and porn....this assertion is false!
It was actually these two entities that emboldened them and ensure they evolved into what they are today!
The homosexual act before now was medically seen as an abnormality before media backed by some money bags who practised such act ensured others became affectionate towards them using the same media....

Secondly,like I said before,a human formation from child to teen is basically shaped by three things....what they read,listen to and most importantly,what they watch!
We can't also take away the influence of the environment and guardian!
Once a habit undetected is formed,it will be hard to break free without an unforced decision from the individual!
No religion,lifestyle or pressure will stop one who is determined to continue that act that was learned during their early stages in life!

Lol....there was no decision to become whatever act I am currently practising now!
Like I said before,these acts which we now consider a norm was formed during the individuals early stages in life through the influence of reading,listening and watching!
These three subjects shape an individuals orientation,and convictions in life!
For me,I was born into a family where there was a man and woman with a future desire to have a lady while the lady dreamt of having a guy by her side!
Hence,that gave me an orientation and a decision!
Any other thing contrary was seen as an abnormality!
Even films with such abnormalities were considered a turn off!

All what I have stated can be traced to the family system!
The family shapes and influences a child's growth or trajectory in life!

I don't think that was his point.

Him coming out as gay doesn't make him play the victim game. But he saying he can't play any role except gay roles means he's play the victim game.

Who does that?

PS: I like Wentworth Miller whether he's gay or not


He has a right to chose cos some straight actors won't play gay roles so why must him making his own decisions become a problem and "victim mentality?"

They're both gay and heterosexual paedophiles so you're making no sense!

It's obvious you are a PAEDOPHILE!!

Under 18 can't give consent dummy that's the universal morality law! I see why you are against gays now because they didn't make laws that'll protect you when chasing those little girls.

Stay away from the kids!
You are trying to turn the table around. My submission is both against gay and pedophiles. Both are waywardness that must be not allowed. Go back and read my comments with understanding

Why are you not a gay?

Because I was born straight, the same way some where born gay, lesbian, intersex, etc. Life is not black and white, it comes in all shades. Take time and study human sexuality. You have an internet enabled phone, put it to use. Ignorance is not an excuse for hate.

That was systematic homphobia the same way women and black people were treated as inferior back then! So people didn't feel comfortable in their natural selfs!

So as you watch gay scenes, has that made you gay?? So you're telling me many gays came from gay homes since you came from a straight home?

Many gays haven't had sexual relations before but they are fully aware that they're gay! If it were for anything, with the way y'all push heteronormativity, they wouldn't have been any gay person.

It's demonic , it's actually unusual urge . I didn't believe it til I saw a man of God casting out devils from them. Some have the urge to eat nails, chalk, bottles , spoon, sand in an uncontrollable manner. They are clamouring for gay right because they don't know what's behind it. Many who are set free becoming irritated to imagine they were once into that shot. A mad man looks normal to himself till he's set free
Wow. I always tell people to visit YouTube to see testimonies and deliverance videos of former homosexuals. May God deliver them

I'm not supporting their claim but your analogy doesn't make sense.

Who teaches babies how to crawl? Because infants most likely hasn't seen anyone crawling. It is innate.


I'm trying to reason with the possibility of gays coming out with a natural affection towards the same sex. I'm not certain about it yet
So you believe a child can pick up a book and read without been taught right?
So a child can learn to stand without being assisted? Right?
Oga you can disapprove of my assertion as you like but no one during their early stages in life can make decisions or have an orientation without influences from family,peers,environment, what they read,what they listen to and what they watch!
The idea that such acts were natural is a complete joke!
Its like hilariously implying that bill gates knew he will become a billionaire from birth!

Yes! But you exaggerated. He got decent acting gigs following Prison Break.

And I'm quite sure you don't know other roles he's played besides Michael Scofield - it's reasonable, at a point i didn't either

The fact that life comes in all shades doesn't mean that all shades are normal. Just as people are born with physical disabilities, the same can also be said in this case. I do not hate gays, you people are so quick to play the hate game just because one stands against something that they don't consider to be right.

What is right and what is wrong? What is disability? If you can answer these objectively, you'll discover a flaw in your reasoning.

You see the emboldened part? You just contradicted yourself and magnified my point. If there's only one homosexual for 100 heterosexuals, according to you, then it means that something is wrong somewhere. It clearly expresses an abnormality and people like you who're playing the activist are only making matters worse instead of trying to seek a solution to this virus.

I used that as a point since you were crying that the world will come to an end cos of gay people...so don't even try to backtrack now

Btw So if they're more Asians than blacks does that mean something is wrong somewhere??

If the world had more coal than petroleum does that mean something is wrong somewhere??

Your problem is selfishness, cos according to you, as long as you're not among the majority, you're "abnormal" and it doesn't concern you because you are not among them....

how many movies has gay roles? Him saying he wouldn't play any other role apart from gay roles is being selfish. It is just like saying he won't even play any role because he's gay.

One thing about gay people is that they love to choke straight people with their sexuality.

This is entirely different mate.

There are innate abilities and there are also learned abilities.

You need to be taught how to read and write but most times what you eventually become in future, largely depends on your innate ability.

This is the reason why no matter how you learn how to sing, you can't sing better than Adele.

No matter how you learn how to draw, you can't draw or paint better than Pablo Picasso.

Those abilities are Innate.


I ask again, don't you think the ability for some to have natural affection towards the same sex is innate?

That’s a perfect advice meant for gay people like you. If you can drill rock hard below of your fellow man, then you can sleep with anything no doubt.

Stay away from the kids!!! And stop molesting the innocent kids in the name of adoption. That’s what gay folks like you do, adopting male kids only to be molested
