Fichtner: Sometimes a director will say something that will inspire you and take you to a new place, and there is nothing I enjoy more than that. (edit) Interviewer: They have the option to bring you back for next season. Any word on whether that's going to happen?
Fichtner: They do have that option, but I haven't gotten that phone call yet. I'll tell you something - if they decide to exercise that option, so be it. It would be my pleasure to come back. I've never had that feeling with a television experience before. (edit) TVGuide.com: Well, The Fugitive lasted five seasons. Do you think Prison Break has the legs to make it that long?
Fichtner: That's interesting. You know, when you start off with a show called Prison Break, it better be about one thing. They got that done. The second season they're on the run. So the second season is like The Fugitive. What will the third season be about? I don't know. But it's not a formula show, and it doesn't have to follow any pattern, so who knows? (edit) Interviewer: Recently Mahone has been the focus of an FBI Internal Affairs investigation, on top of trying to track down the remaining fugitives. Do you look forward to playing a guy under an intense amount of pressure, or is it pretty exhausting?
Fichtner: It's not exhausting at all. It's absolutely welcome. It's what makes the journey worth it. In the beginning, when I read the first two episodes last summer after deciding to do it, it wasn't about being the FBI guy chasing the fugitives. That does very little for me. What's interesting is all the other stuff, the internal conflicts and what's happening in his life and with his family, that's what makes it work. Characters who have more than one plate spinning are the most fun to play. (edit) TVGuide.com: All right, all right. So on the Prison Break front, your Agent Mahone is getting more and more interesting as the season goes on. What's it been like developing such a cerebral yet tortured character?
Fichtner: Thank you. Thank you for using those words to describe him. That's exactly how I think about him, but people are always like, "He's such a bad guy." I'm always like, "Don't you get more than that?" Pay attention, he's more than a bad guy. He's a guy who gets pulled in so many directions. That is what has made this entire season really worth it for me. (edit)
