Prison Break's Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows are coming back for another year on the lam and under the microscope of a secret organization, but they won't be alone.
Two new cast members of the Fox drama were announced today and will join the show as regulars for its third season. Robert Wisdom and Jodi Lyn O'Keefe join Wentworth Miller (Michael) and Dominic Purcell (Lincoln), says The Hollywood Reporter, but will both play very different roles.
Wisdom will star as the jailed Panamanian drug lord Luchero, who happens to run the inmates in the Central American joint where much of the upcoming season takes place. The actor's previous credits include Howard "Bunny" Colvin on The Wire, Barbershop 2: Back in Business, and Ray.
O'Keefe will play Betty Crocker, an agent for the secret government organization, the Company. The fetching 28-year old brunette has a host of television credits, including appearances on Criminal Minds, Two and a Half Men, and Nash Bridges, in which she played the titular detective's daughter.
Prison Break begins its third season this fall. For more information, read TV.com's previous coverage.

Im so glad Jodi Lyn O'Keefe is coming back, she is a babe, she is an excellent actress, love her in prison break
the imdb.com calls her "susan b. anthony"; can anyone tell me if 'the company' is agent kim's or daddy burrows' team? & does anyone know if there's confirmation yet about sarah wayne callies not returning [or returning] to the show?
Another possible love interest for Michael or for Lincoln? ;) Can't wait for the new seasons of Prison Break, House & Bones. :D

Anyone knows the season premier date?
waiting desperately

Luchero!Luchero!Luchero...Tha name itself is kinda scary,cant wait tha peace of action between him and our boy genious.
Well, I really liked her in Another World (12 yrs ago). We'll see if Jodi can cook, too. (can't believe that name...) Oooh! Do we save points from her, or boxtops, or something? Never mind.
Betty Crocker?! Is this April 1st? What next? Is the Pillsbury Doughboy gonna off Linc next season? The Stay Puff Marshmellowman gonna distract the guards as Michael breaks out?
BETTY CROCKER???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA Now that alone made coming online worth my morning. HAHAHA. wow. I wonder if Aunt Jemima will be making an appearance?
A breath of fresh air.

Sounds like 'Betty Crocker' is a pseudonym since she is an (likely undercover) agent.
I'm really looking forward Season 3. And these new characters are probably gonna be quite interesting to follow... "Drug Lord Luchero" :twisted: ?? wouhou lots of action ahead !!I hope it doesn't turn out like S2 were I had hard time staying focused in the end of first half... Just keep the S2 end spirit and everything should be fine for me !!(almost makes you wish summer was over :lol: )
i really hope that i wont be tempted to fast forward through season three. the finale of season two was great, although i found season two quite draggy at times.
Can't wait 'till the begining of the new season!
Where is the cake? :)
Prison Break is the TV show I look most forward to return, even though I didn't not like season 2 that much - except for the end :P It is going to be so awesome!
I can't wait for the third season to begin, please hurry!!!
I can't wait for the next season to begin...I have always belived that the first season of Prison Break was the best...
they couldnt think of a name better then BETTY CROCKER????? HHAHAHAHAI LOVE THIS SHOW!!!anyone up for some cake?
So besides Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell who else of this years cast in returning?
lol!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds like two good additions
Hihihi, Betty Crocker...Made me laugh
I loved Robert Wisdom on "The Wire" can't wait to see him on PB...
Isn't it weird that an actor of jamaican descent is playing a panamanian drug lord?But, I sure hope that the GA spin-off tanks so Kellerman can take down Betty Crocker. :)
Betty Crocker?!!!??!!?!?
