The network has ordered a script for the possible spin-off from "Prison Break" executive producer Matt Olmstead and co-executive producer Zack Estrin.

Tentatively titled "Prison Break: Cherry Hill," the new series would be set at a women's prison and follow Molly, a new regular character to be introduced on "Prison Break" later this season, the trade paper said.

The role of Molly has not yet been cast. However, if "Cherry Hill" gets made, the character of Molly would continue as a regular character on the original "Prison Break."
