Michael Rapaport Signs On For 'Prison Break'

A few weeks ago, TV Guide broke the story that Prison Break would be adding at least two new characters to season 4. The first is Penrab, a deadly assassin for The Company who’s been waiting be called in to take somebody out. Then there's Don, an FBI handler who will become useful to Michael. He has strategies and tactics for bringing The Company down from the inside out. Today, Fox announced that Michael Rapaport will be joining the cast of Prison Break as "a government agent who has an interesting offer for Michael and Lincoln". Could this be our Don?
Rapaport has had a recurring role on NBC's My Name Is Earl as a criminal named Frank. He had a sitcom of his own, The War At Home, which lasted two seasons on Fox. He has a long standing relationship with the network, appearing on Boston Public from 2001-2004. He had a memorable stint on Friends as Gary, the policeman, who dated Phoebe. His film credits include Higher Learning, Hitch, and the upcoming Only In New York, which also stars James Caviezel.

There are rumors swirling that the fourth season of Prison Break could be its last. The show has experienced a steady decline in viewership over the years but Fox had stood behind the drama. Wentworth Miller, the show's star, has hinted that he would love to move on at the end of next season. He recently told Britain's Glamour magazine, "I really feel there's a beginning, middle and an end to this story and my gut feeling is that we're on the last leg of the journey." Despite the drop in ratings, the show has maintained a solid and loyal fan base. Many of them would like to see the show go out on top so perhaps it's time that Michael settles things with The Company once and for all.
