Prison Break Spin-off Scoop!

Regan Jay Licciardello (Gretchen’s daughter Emily) recently chatted with The Monitor about her role on Prison Break and commuting to Los Angeles from Texas. (Thanks Sandra and Stephenie for the tip!)

While filming her very first episode, the Prison Break crew was nervous about the guns and violence on the show being exposed to Regan in too harsh of a way. “They were very tender with her, telling her not to be afraid of being held hostage,” Regan’s mother, Bonnie said. But the crew quickly learned that Regan was a tough Texan whose dad is an avid hunter and often keeps a gun by his side. “She said, ‘Are you kidding me? I sleep with guns!”

There’s also some hope from Regan and her mom that the uncomfirmed Prison Break spinoff is a go. “They’re sending Gretchen to prison. There’s a line in the last episode (the series’ winter finale), where Lincoln says ‘If you don’t talk you’ll get to see your daughter again,’” Bonnie said. “So we’re hoping that happens and we get a chance to be in that.”
