The drama "Prison Break" is undoubtedly the "ceiling of American dramas" in the hearts of many people, and since it was broadcast in 2005, it has brought many people into the "pit of American dramas", which is very exciting in terms of casting and plot design.
Especially in terms of the plot, the tense prison atmosphere and the characteristics of each character are very clear, so that the audience can remember the "character" at a glance, like the editor remembers the character of T-Bag, and his portrayal of the character makes me feel that "he is a perverted murderer".
When the editor first saw the name of this drama, I thought it was a crime-themed tough guy drama about how the protagonist escaped from prison with great difficulty, which was a bit of "The Shawshank Redemption" but not so righteous.
And when we watched it carefully, we found out that this drama is mainly about families and ordinary people who are swayed by the powerful and dare to fight in their own way.
It's been 19 years since the premiere, and I wonder what happened to the "prison break squad" at that time?
The current situation of the main character, Mike, is really surprising
T-Bag (Robert Kneap)
The veteran actor in 1959 can be said to have been tepid in the film and television industry before, and it was not until the broadcast of "Prison Break" that "this drama exploded".
You must know that the T-Bag he played was not an important role, but just a pawn on the way to the prison escape of the protagonist Mike, the kind that will go offline at any time.
It's just that the director didn't expect that a small role that was not too important would become popular after the broadcast of "Prison Break", so he kept him and became Mike's partner of "friend and foe", focusing on a kind of ghost who will slip away when he has the opportunity.
In the play, the character he plays does not seem to give people a feeling of "don't get close to the living", but looks like a bully, but if you really think so, then you are very wrong, he is not only not easy to mess with, but can even be directly marked as a "dangerous person".
You must know that T-Bag's reason for being imprisoned is because of "forcing women", but he is not the only one who is guilty of this crime, at first Mike did not plan to take him with him to escape from prison, but because he was exposed and he was worried that he would report it, so he had to take him with him.
And the reason why T-Bag has become what it is now is also because of family, it can be said that no one is born "perverted"!
After the fire of "Prison Break", the resources of Robert who played T-Bag are also much better, although most of them are still playing supporting roles, but the coffee position of the protagonist is getting bigger and bigger, and the movies are also some popular IPs, such as "Very Human Traffickers 3", "The Hunger Games 3" and so on.
After all, Robert is now 65 years old, and he is already an elderly actor in the film and television industry, although he has reduced the number of times he appears on the screen, he is still active in the circle, and from time to time he will participate in some "charity parties".
Some netizens ridiculed: "T-Bag can be regarded as his nightmare, the kind that scares when he sees it."
The editor is here to teach you a way, if you really meet him, grab his pocket! (everyone who has watched the drama understands).
I also hope that Robert can bring us better works, if you haven't watched "Prison Break", you can go and see it, it's really worth watching, but one thing to note is that the plot characters should not be substituted for reality~
Paul Kellerman (Paul Anderstein)
Paul plays a CIA agent in "Prison Break", and his main task throughout the show is to make things difficult for the two Mike Lincoln brothers, and he is very single-minded with only one goal is to "get Lincoln to death".
In fact, the character he plays is more like a subordinate of a high-ranking leader in the play, who specifically asked him to frame Lincoln.
It can be said that the American drama "Prison Break" has almost brought fire to all the actors in it, from the protagonist to the supporting role, after filming, the resources have been qualitatively improved, but Paul is more inclined to TV series and almost does not play any movies.
In fact, Paul was a member of the band in the early days, and he was very talented in writing and arranging, but gradually he fell in love with "acting" and changed careers.
However, from now on, there is no problem with his transformation, and his acting skills are still very recognized by the audience.
Now Paul is over half a hundred years old, and he has also moved from the front of the screen to the background to engage in some "screenwriter" work, because the editor does not pay much attention to him, he has only watched the rest of the American drama "Prison Break" played by him and has not watched it, so I will not make an evaluation.
Alex Mahone (William Fidnell)
When I first watched "Prison Break", I just heard the name Ma Hong and thought it was a Chinese, but then I found out that it was an FBI agent, and at first I thought he was a character who stood on the opposite side of the protagonist.
I didn't expect to look at it and find that he was also in prison, and sure enough, it was the same as the title of the play.
From an enemy to a follower, I believe that Ma Hong's heart is also "10,000 grass and mud horses galloping", but William still has a lot of works that can be done in addition to the "Prison Break" series.
Like "Furious Speed" and Cage on the same stage, and DC's Batman also has William's figure, I originally thought that Ma Hong was very old with a windward hairstyle, but I didn't expect to see today's photos to know that he was 68 years old.
It's rare to see him in movies and TV series, and he should start enjoying his old age~
Sara Don Credi (Vane Carris)
Sara and the male protagonist can be regarded as one of the few "love elements" in the play, and they can be regarded as "positive characters" in the plot at the beginning, but it was not until the fourth season that Sarah's reputation collapsed.
For various reasons, Sara was forcibly arrested in the women's prison, and Mike was outside to talk about racking his brains to save his lover, and the ending was as everyone wanted, the daughter-in-law was indeed rescued, but Mike put himself in prison again.
And after a lapse of seven years, the fifth season was released, but I didn't expect Sara to marry another person with her and Michael's child, which caused the audience to hate her image in the show, but in fact, we think about it from a different angle.
In the play, Sara thinks that Mike is dead, so she needs someone to rely on for her and her son, so it is understandable why she chose to marry Jacob.
In addition to starring in "Prison Break", Wayne also played another popular American drama "The Walking Dead", which tells the story of humanity after the zombie outbreak, and she is still active in the film and television industry.
At the age of 46, she has lost the immaturity on her face, but it is more attractive, and I look forward to her continuing to shine in American dramas.
Brad Berwick (Wade Williams)
At the beginning of the plot, Berwick is still the warden of the prison where the protagonist works, and often uses his power to do some inappropriate behavior, and even blatantly violates the human rights of prisoners, so no one dares to mess with him because he covers the sky with one hand in prison.
In a prison mess created by Mike, in order to stop the troublemakers led by T-Bag, he also specifically told his family situation, which can be regarded as the pain of T-Bag's life.
So later, after he was imprisoned, the person T-bag wanted to kill the most was him, although he suffered humiliation in prison, but fortunately, he was able to survive with his "obedient and honest".
Nowadays, he regards acting as a side hustle, and is more focused on his favorite "photography".
Unexpectedly, the current situation of the following "prison break protagonists" is very regrettable, especially Mike......
Fernando Sucre (Amari Norlask)
Sucre can be regarded as the "funny person" in this drama, and at the beginning of the plot, he had to close the "curtain" in order to cover Mike's digging through the prison, which is very funny.
It can be said that Sucre is a very affectionate person, because he doesn't need to be locked up for long at all, but for Mike's plan to rescue his brother, he still chooses to escape together.
With the popularity of "Prison Break", the affectionate and righteous Sucre has also become the object of the audience's favorite, and he has also participated in classic movies such as "Fast and Furious" and "Transformers".
Now he seems to have given up his work in front of the stage, and spends more time appearing on the name of the producer.
Mike Corfield (Wentworth Miller)
Mike, the proper protagonist, in order to rescue his brother who was infinite, did not hesitate to tattoo the prison map on his body in a way that only he could understand, and the original engineering master became an escaped prisoner.
In addition to the prison break series of the fire, Miller can be regarded as a frequent guest in American dramas, and he has appeared in many American dramas, and his eyes seem to be full of "stories", always giving people a feeling that they don't know what he is thinking.
In fact, he is indeed different from ordinary people, and was exposed to "autism" a few years ago, perhaps this is the reason why he looks very depressed.
It can be seen that after more than ten years, he has hardly changed except for gray hair and fat.
Quietly tell everyone: He publicly stated his "sexual orientation as a man" before, I don't know how T-Bag would feel when he saw it~
Lincoln Barros (Dominic Purcell)
Mike's brother Lincoln, this can be regarded as another protagonist, because although he didn't show up much in the early plot, it all revolved around "saving him".
Don't look at his low IQ in the play, but one good thing is to "listen to his brother", no matter what Mike says, he will follow the instructions, which is the most important reason why he was able to successfully escape in the end.
Dominic gives people the image of a tough guy just by looking at it, and with the popularity of the prison break series, he has also become a famous actor, and has played roles in some big IP movies such as "Blade", but he is not the protagonist.
Judging from his recent photos, he is also a little old, and he can't compare with the state of those stars in their 50s in China.
One final word
The current situation of several leading actors, some are still active in the film and television industry, and some have retreated into the background, but unfortunately, the protagonist Mike has announced a temporary retirement due to autism and other reasons.
The 12345 season of "Prison Break" can be said to be a very classic American drama, but in the end, it is a bit like the feeling of forcibly continuing to shoot for just money, no matter what, it can be regarded as the youth of a generation or the "first American drama".
I don't know which character you like the most?
