Myles Bullock, who has garnered widespread recognition for his roles in Starz's gripping drama "BMF" and Peacock's thrilling limited series "Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist," has signed on as a series regular for the highly anticipated reboot of "Prison Break."

Emily Browning ("American Gods"), Lukas Gage ("Companion"), and Drake Rodger ("Landman") lead the cast of this reimagined "Prison Break." The original show, which premiered on Fox in 2005, revolved around Michael Scofield (Miller), a structural engineer who orchestrates an armed robbery to get himself incarcerated alongside his wrongfully imprisoned brother Lincoln Burrows (Purcell), with an intricate escape plan in mind. This daring scheme ultimately draws in numerous fellow inmates.

While the precise concept or storyline of the reboot remains under wraps, it is known that Browning will portray an ex-soldier who has transitioned into a corrections officer at one of America's most treacherous prisons. Gage, on the other hand, takes on the role of a politician, while Rodger embodies an inmate serving a decade-long sentence. Bullock will bring to life a powerful figure within the penitentiary, functioning as a shot caller.

James serves as the showrunner and executive producer alongside Dawn Olmstead, the original creator Paul Scheuring, Marty Adelstein, and Neal H. Moritz. Bullock's resume boasts appearances in shows like Marvel's "Runaways," "Criminal Minds," and "S.W.A.T.," as well as feature films such as the 20th Century Studios remake of "White Men Can't Jump."

In "Fight Night," Peacock's true-crime limited series inspired by a podcast of the same name, Bullock starred alongside Samuel L. Jackson, Terrence Howard, Taraji P. Henson, and Dexter Darden. The show chronicles the infamous armed robbery that unfolded during Muhammad Ali's historic 1970 comeback fight, adding another layer of intrigue to Bullock's impressive portfolio.

Bullock is represented by IAG and Liberman-Zerman Management, as he continues to captivate audiences with his versatile and compelling performances.
