The Fugitive franchise consists of American action-thriller mystery-crime installments via film and television mediums. The franchise is composed of two theatrical films, and three television series. Based on an original story by Roy Huggins for the titular 1960s television series, the plot centers around innocent individuals who are wrongfully convicted after they are framed for criminal acts they did not commit. Each installment details their eventual escape from their capture by law enforcement, and the ensuing investigative manhunt that follows. As accomplished investigators are quickly on their trail in trying to recapture them, they frantically search to find the proof of their innocence and exoneration for their name.
The franchise is intended to continue, with a reboot film in development.[1]
