Local Name To Appear In 'Prison Break'

After getting an early start in his home town of El Paso, Anthony Escobar hoped to one day be a big-name star.

He started out in high school plays, but Escobar soon ended up as an extra in a Hollywood blockbuster "Pirates of the Caribbean."

"One thing I never did was give up I’ve been kicked down so many times. In this business you're pushed out so many times," said actor Escobar.

But his determination and love of acting paid off. After getting cut from many films and television series , he has his own character in the upcoming season of "Prison Break". Although he couldn't go into any detail, Escobar told KFOX he has already shot the first episode of the season.
