Speaking to Collider, he explained: "I couldn’t tell you another story about this group of people. Maybe somebody else can, or by accident, I’ll somehow, possibly, dream up another prison escape that’s new and fresh, but I would bet against it.

"You can only be open for business, if it’s worth being open for business. Your product has to be worthwhile. Until I, or someone else, can come up with something that’s really worthwhile for the audience, you have to say goodbye to these people.’

"At the end, you’ll be like, 'That was the dynamic. That’s what happened. And that’s how it was resolved. Wow!' There’s no over-hanging piece that will make you want to come back next year."
