List of Prison Break characters

Lincoln Burrows (played by Dominic Purcell) is falsely convicted of the murder of Terrence Steadman and sentenced to death for the crime. He is surprised to see his younger brother Michael Scofield in the same prison and who is planning to break him out of prison before his execution. He evaded authorities after escaping from prison and has been exonerated of all charges. In the second season of the series, the story continues to follow Lincoln, his brother and other escapees as they try to evade the authorities pursuing them. Away from the prison setting, Michael and Lincoln are frequently featured in scenes together in the first seven episodes. When they fail to retrieve L. J. Burrows before his trial, they decide to head to Utah to find Westmoreland's hidden money. In season 3 he is free and successfully assists Michael and James Whistler to break out of Sona. As of season 4, he is now part of Self's covert "A-Team" assembled to bring down The Company. He is also in the very last scene when he visits Michael Scofield's (his brother) grave, and he puts an origami crane on top of the grave so he can remember the time when he made them for him, so he would always know that his brother was caring for him. In season 5, he finds out Michael is still alive and incarcerated in Yemen, and leads an operation to save his brother.

Purcell was cast three days before the start of production and consequently, he was the last actor to join the original cast. He auditioned for the role while he had a recurring role as Tommy Ravetto on ''North Shore''. Provided by Wikipedia
