Morgan gets an up close and personal view of the prisoners’ meticulous planning and their suspense-filled break outs.

“I’ve been inside the minds of prisoners in my acting career, and I’m looking forward to stepping inside the most notorious prisons in the world, like Alcatraz, Sing Sing, Riker’s Island and Leavenworth.
