The Prisoner is a 2009 six-part television miniseries based on the 1960s series. The series concerns a man who awakens in a mysterious, picturesque, but escape-proof village, and stars Jim Caviezel, Sir Ian McKellen, Ruth Wilson, and Hayley Atwell. It was co-produced by American cable channel AMC with British channel ITV, whose parent company holds the rights to the original series through ITV Studios. It received mixed reviews, with critics feeling that the remake was not as compelling as the original series.
