| Jan 25, 2017 01:41 AM EST

Actors Dominic Purcell (L) and Wentworth Miller attend the Fox Action Showcase: 'Prison Break' And '24: Legacy' during Comic-Con International 2016 at San Diego Convention Center on July 24, 2016 in San Diego, California.

After the original wrap of "Prison Break" Season 4 back in 2009, Dominic Purcell's fellow lead actor Wentworth Miller predicted the show's unexpected return. Five years on and the revival soon materialized against all the odds. At last, "Prison Break" Season 5 is now in its final rungs and here are the major facts:

1. When did filming of "Prison Break" Season 5 start?

Filming of "Prison Break" Season 5 was initially scheduled for spring 2016 after Miller and Dominic Purcell had finished filming "Legends of Tomorrow" Season 1. It began in April 2016 in Vancouver Canada and in other Moroccan cities including Casablanca and Ouarzazate.

2. Who are reprising their roles in "Prison Break" Season 5?

The obvious members returning to the cast are Miller and Purcell (Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows). Others include Robert Knepper, Amaury Nolasco, Sarah Wayne Callies, Rockmond Dunbar, and Paul Adelstein.

Also, "Prison Break" is slotting in some new members in the cast including "Royal Pains" actor Mark Feuerstein, who will be playing Scott Ness and a husband to sara. This means Scofield's romance with her is no more.

Other new members of the cast are "Kick-Ass 2" actor Augustus Prew who will pay Whip, Marina Benedict as 'A&W,' Kunal Sharma as Sid, Inbar Lavi, and Rick Yune from "The Fast and the Furious."

3. What is the "Prison Break" Season 5 plot?

"Prison Break" Season 5 will serve as a sequel to the original series and its storyline will be more global, according to DeadlinePrison breakers will be positioned in different parts of the world although the latest trailer hints that the Middle East could be the core location.

In nine episodes, Season 5 will give a detailed logical explanation why some characters are still alive, after being portrayed dead. It will also dive deep into why they are moving around the world.

When the show starts, fans will be surprised to know that Scofield is alive. He will be held up in an uninviting Yemen prison where he will be plotting an escape by always sending cryptic messages to Burrows and C-Note.

A trailer released this month reveals that Scofield had been keeping tabs on his son and Sara during his nonappearance. It also confirmed that C-Note and Sucre would volunteer to get him back from the prison.

How Scofield ended up behind bars is still a mystery. "Prison Break" Season 4 had ended with him being presumably dead. But that was not the true state of things. Apparently, he ended up working for a terrorist organization.

In a recent interview with Digital Spy, Miller hinted that the regime in Yemen would be under collapse and in complete turmoil and chaos. Then the prison gates will open, and the prisoners will be set free. Burrows will try to spot his brother from the big crowds of prisoners, but all will be in vain. The rest is a mystery.

4. When and where will "Prison Break "Season 5 air?

"Prison Break" Season 5 will air on Fox in the US. The air date for the first episode is on April 4, Tuesday. However, no air date has been set for fans in the United Kingdom, and neither has any broadcaster communicated its interest in airing the show as at the time of writing.

5. Will there be a "Prison Break" Season 6?

As Miller pointed out, fans should not give up hopes for further adventures. "Prison Break" fans may, therefore, receive another season although this rests on many factors, including the ratings of the upcoming fifth season of the show.
