Wentworth Miller is establishing himself as the actor whose characters never die.

The actor is known for portraying two memorable characters. The first is "Prison Break's" Michael Scofield and the other is Captain Cold, the villain-turned-hero of The CW's DC Universe. The former was initially thought to be dead when the popular series wrapped up way back in 2009, while the latter died in the penultimate episode of "Legends of Tomorrow."

However, Miller is set to reprise his role as Michael Scofield in "Prison Break" season 5, while fans will still see their favorite cool as ice hero, Captain Cold, in "The Flash" and the network's other superhero shows.

There has always been interest in a revival or reboot of the show, but as Dominic Purcell explained to Digital Spy, Miller went into some kind of semi-retirement to focus on his writing.

"He's jumped back into the fray now — and as soon as Wentworth was on board, that's when the dominos started to fall," Purcell added.

And fall they did. With the two brothers back on board — Miller as Scofield and Purcell as Lincoln Burrows — it wasn't long before Sarah Wayne Callies, Amaury Nolasco, Robert Knepper, Rockmond Dunbar, and Paul Adelstein were soon confirming that they're also returning to reprise their iconic roles.

Fox has already released a trailer for "Prison Break" season 5, giving fans a glimpse of what to expect when the show finally returns. The clip begins with a shot of Scofield's son asking his mother about his real father. Sara describes him to "a storm appearing suddenly out of a clear blue sky, and then disappeared just as quickly." But her son wisely points out that storms can come back.

Burrows is then shown returning home to find T-Bag with information about Michael being alive. Michael's older brother shares the information with his sister-in-law, who doesn't seem willing to believe it at first. Lincoln decides to check and flies off to Morocco, where his brother is reportedly being held and soon finds Michael. He tells the former architect that they'll be breaking him out. The "they" turn out to be their old crew, with Michael also helping from the inside.

The trailer also gives viewers glimpses of the brothers' plan for a prison break, which appears to involve shutting down the power in the city. The clip ends with the two brothers being reunited. While the scene is such a happy moment, they're not out of the woods yet.

Fox hasn't set a release date for "Prison Break" season 5 yet, but the series is expected to return to the small screen in 2017.
