While Michael Scofield made sure to take care of his older brother Lincoln Burrows in "Prison Break" TV series, the actors who portray the roles expressed their concern for one another after an accident injured one of them in real life.
Dominic Purcell, the actor who portrays Lincoln in the series, caused a little scare when he met a serious accident on the set of "Prison Break" season 5 in Morocco. But the actor revealed that the production of the highly anticipated reboot remains on track due to the leadership of Wentworth Miller as he reprises his role of Michael in the reboot.
In an Instagram post, Purcell revealed that his co-star and close friend made sure that his health would be the top priority while working on the show's upcoming season.
"Went is holding up the fort in my absence his leadership and care is inspirational. He's taken control taken it upon himself to push the production and lead by example. A true leader a true gentleman and the most fearless person I have ever met," the actor revealed.
Purcell broke his nose after an iron bar fell on his face while filming a scene in Morocco. But the actor said that his injuries are nothing serious and even joked about his accident in another Instagram post.
"Doc said I have an unusually tough tissue fiber that's what saved me apparently. Thank god for my#Viking heritage," he wrote in the caption.
The Australian actor also updated his fans regarding his recovery by posting a photo of himself while working out after the accident, saying that he only incurred a broken nose and a number of stitches on his head.

Ummmmm nothing yet just a broken nose and a hundred stitches in my head. So just Get going and see what the f......k happens I guess." data-caption="null" data-credit="null">
While the filming of the upcoming "Prison Break" reboot continues despite Purcell's accident, a 20<sup>th Century Fox producer reportedly told Deadline that the actor will have to take a break for a couple of weeks until his wounds are healed completely. He is also expected to resume shooting for his scenes as soon as he is okay. "Prison Break" season 5 is slated to debut on FOX in early 2017.
