Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell’s break from sharing the small screen together is coming to an end.
The Prison Break stars are set to reunite in a new hostage recovery drama titled Snatchback, Variety reported Tuesday, June 25.
“Inspired by the life of a real covert intelligence officer who is still active in the field today,” the official logline reads, “the series follows a highly skilled privately contracted team of operatives as they recover hostages across the globe from some of the most exotic, and equally dangerous locations on the planet.”
The Shield’s Scott Rosenberg will serve as a writer and executive producer. No network is attached to the project as of now.
Purcell responded in the comments section writing, “It was fun mate. What a ride it was. Fully support and understand your reasoning. Glad you have made this decision for your health and your truth. Love ya brother.”
While Snatchback will be an opportunity for Purcell to work with Miller again, it will also be a chance for the actor to work with his wife, Tish Cyrus. According to Variety, Purcell will serve as an executive producer alongside his wife and Dannah Axelrod Summers of HopeTown Entertainment.
Cyrus previously offered a glimpse into how her love story with Purcell began.
“In 2016, Dom DMed me,” she recalled on an episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast. “I had followed him on Instagram and he DMed me and just said, ‘Hey, Tish, just wanted to [say], I think you’re super cool and you’re doing such a great job with your family.’ … I didn’t see it for a year.”
Tish reached out to Purcell after she and her ex-husband Billy Ray Cyrus split in 2022. They later married in August 2023 during a private wedding ceremony in Malibu, California.
